- For this question, refer to the third tab, Trader Activity. Suppose that 9/1 is the first day of trading for this particular contract so that there was no open interest on 8/31. This table lists the members of a hypothetical clearing house and their trading activity. The ten traders are identified in the first column, with other columns representing a days worth of trading. Find the volume and open interest at the end of 9/14. You can assume that on any particular day, a trader makes trades in only one direction, so that the daily numbers represent that traders volume.
