Exchanges are in dating mode with expiry days. Ideally they should marry a day and let it be :grinning: Only change at my end would be to change the code again to match the new expiry day.

This is good news. By Monday, all the price management tied to expiry and premium decay will be finished. After that, the other days can go back to normal with regular demand and supply.

I believe BSE Derivatives expiries should also be aligned to Monday.
