What is behind today’s +25.2?
FlowDesk
The composite has held within 1.2 points of +25.2 across the last 8 sessions. Today’s +25.2 breaks down as +19.7 from volume and +5.5 from open interest. I can’t split past days the same way: the stored history keeps call/put volume but not open interest for past days.
