Open-Close data is a volume summary file for option trading activity on Cboe exchanges (BZX, C1, C2, EDGX). Available in 10-minute intervals or as an end-of-day summary, it aggregates and buckets the volume by origin (customer, professional customer, broker-dealer, and market maker), buying/selling, and opening/closing position. The customer and professional customer volumes are further broken down into trade size buckets (fewer than 100 contracts, 100-199 contracts, greater than 199 contracts). Fields 10-17 (OHLC prices, total volume, open interest) will only be available in the end-of-day files and will not be populated in the 10-minute intervals. It contains all series in an underlying security's chain if it has volume on the exchange.
