"Was the volume of trades to open or to close positions?"

Seems only way to tell is subtract one day's IO total from the previous close

FWIW

enjoy

Aug 50 calls IOdwn from 18395 to 15789 this am vs yesterday
(net 2,606 to close)
Aug 55 calls IO dwn from 5821 to 5398 (net 423 to close)

Sep 47.5 calls IO up from 506 to 10302 (net 9,796 to open)
Sep 50 calls IO from 9423 to 9362
Sep 55 calls 6444 to 6696

adding a 65 strike!

It looks like unusually active option action to me.

Sep 55 puts io up from 97 to 369
