Why did the score rise from −43 to −33 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was −43.3 on 2 Oct, then rose to −32.9 on 3 Oct as the price moved from $116.38 to $115.33. It’s at −32.9 now. Today’s −32.9 breaks down as −16.5 from volume and −16.4 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.
