Are option expiration days
usually trend days?

Not on a consistent basis. Options expiration days were confusing,
volatile, and choppy for the most part in years past. In recent years
they have been, for the most part, undiscernable from others on an
intraday basis. I used to not trade them because of this but my
technicals handle them just fine in recent years.
  More likely, no one wants to hold a long futures position over the
weekend combined with stockholders hedging long positions
with futures shorts. Not that unusual for a Friday in an inflationary
atmosphere. Just more severe than normal.
