Much confusion on here, speak to any option brokers and ask them how their year has been.
Surely this would depend on the market? Emerging market will have been very, very busy

Maybe all the traders have decided to go skiing and are closing out all their open positions so they can sleep easy over Christmas wink

I did say "year" and not month or week! It was in response to the "unprecedented volatility" quote earlier.

Do you provide liquidity to emerging markets by any chance?...Tradable markets do tend to dry up when things kick off and spreads blow out.
The whole year has been pretty volatile for some desks! Interesting times - a repeat of 1998?
