Some of you may have also noticed some changes on the trading
community with new buttons for Educational, Favorites, KISS,
Matt's Macro V, I'll be designating posts to those areas over
time.
I'm also going to add this to the educational section
anyway as I stated on Friday, in my observations over the years,
OPEX Options Expiration on Friday's tends to be quite choppy most
of the time. That said, on days when the market has a trend move
(one direction) on Friday OPEX like it did on Friday with the
market selling off all day in one trend. Almost always when
that happens you will get a decent bounce the last 5 or 10 min of
the day that also lasts into the after hrs as all those options
expire and contracts settle. We saw this on Friday
obviously
