What is behind today’s +30.2?
FlowDesk
The composite has held within 0.7 points of +30.2 across the last 8 sessions. Today’s +30.2 breaks down as +20.4 from volume and +9.9 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.
