Nifty call put option data
Speaking on Nifty call put ratio, Shilpa Rout, Derivatives Lead Analyst at Prabhudas Lilladher said, "Nifty weekly expiry option chain data reflects maximum additions at 17500PE of over 1.79 lakh OI contracts followed by 17400PE/17000PE each adding over 1.4 lakh and 1.37 lakh OI contracts respectively. CE writers stands at 18000CE with over 1.5 lakh OI contracts and then again 17900CE with 1.29 lakh OI contracts. Call unwinding and aggressive PE additions seen at 17500PE/17600CE, PCR_OI at 17500 is 2.47 which stands as a prominent support for the index on immediate basis."
Bank Nifty call put option data
"Bank Nifty weekly expiry option chain witnesses maximum participation at 41000PE of over 1.2 lakh OI contracts followed by 40000PE/40500PE - each with over 90 thousand OI contracts. CE writers are exposure lies at 42000CE of over 90 thousand OI contracts respectively. Bank Nifty's sustained rise above the 40500 level brings conviction for an upside move for the index," said Rout.
"A prudent way to play this Index would be to buy the Bank Nifty futures along with some ITM PE's, such as 41500 PE. Once markets show a bounce of about 200 more points or half a percent in Bank Nifty, look to sell some far OTM calls for this month’s expiry to protect your downside," said Rahul Ghose, Founder & CEO at Hedged.
