RE:RE:RE:RE:what happened today?Sorry guys, just have to correct my terminology in this post. Was referring to precious metals stocks of course, and not resource stocks.
Anyway, Monday should be interesting!

Maybe you can explain the Calls and Puts spikes in volume & open interest for Dec 21 here:
https://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/gdxj/option-chain Also, see 2018-12-21 2:21PM EST here – the Open Interest spike Low:
https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/GDXJ/options/ Maybe my 3:21:21 PM ET Novo dip BUY near the daily Novo Low was just a fluke spinoff of a Freaky Friday Options event?
Thanks in advance for any clarification,

Now if you were talking about amazon, apple or adobe or something like that it would be applicable because they are affected by options expiration but NVO has no options or futures expriations that would affect it at all. Nice try but it doesn't work in this case.
