Why did the score drop from +60 to +47 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was +60.0 on 2 Oct, then fell to +46.5 on 3 Oct as the price moved from $32.76 to $32.80. It’s at +46.5 now. Today’s +46.5 breaks down as +46.0 from volume and +0.5 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.
