Reasoning
  1. Put–call ratio (OI) = 0.811. Low PCR suggests crowded calls (mean-reversion risk); high PCR indicates hedging/bearish positioning.
  2. Max pain ≈ 24,050 vs spot ≈ 24,038 (-0.05%). Near expiry, price tends to gravitate toward max pain.
  3. Session ΔOI: calls +2,175,116, puts +1,366,702. Fresh OI in the direction of the move implies trend conviction; against the move implies hedging.
  4. ATM (24,050): CE OI 304,071 vs PE OI 255,669, CE IV 19.0% / PE IV 19.0%.
  5. Cash index breadth: 19 up / 30 down (A/D ≈ 0.63).

  1. Put–call ratio (OI) = 0.693. Low PCR suggests crowded calls (mean-reversion risk); high PCR indicates hedging/bearish positioning.
  2. Max pain ≈ 55,800 vs spot ≈ 55,684 (-0.21%). Near expiry, price tends to gravitate toward max pain.
  3. Session ΔOI: calls +576,090, puts +282,297. Fresh OI in the direction of the move implies trend conviction; against the move implies hedging.
  4. ATM (55,700): CE OI 39,454 vs PE OI 36,283, CE IV 27.3% / PE IV 27.3%.
  5. Cash index breadth: 2 up / 12 down (A/D ≈ 0.17).
