Hi Wallace; >>>on GWRX, will MMs try to move the price so that both calls and puts expire worthless tomorrow? I think this notion of MMs manipulating stocks on the options expiry is somewhat “loosely” used on SI. MMs are no longer the only ones selling options. Individuals and institutions are also active writers of options contracts. Also, unless someone tracks the OI in a specific contract from the first day that the contract was opened, no one knows how much money was “exchanged” between the sellers and buyers throughout the life that specific options contract.
