The active switch March-May widened 5 points to end at -2.55 cents. The volume of switches has been below the average, due to a significant reduction of the open interest.

In outright terms it was very much a game of two halves: early weakness attracting an element of short-term spec commitment before the scale down buying that has been in place around the mid-term moving averages for some days now retook control, leaving the board to work its way back to unchanged by day’s end.  March 2400 Calls traded actively through the second half of the session as bargain hunters took advantage of the dip.
