Key Strike Levels

The open‑interest (OI) pool clusters tightly around the 57,000 PE and 58,000 CE strikes, establishing a probable support‑resistance band of ₹56,800‑₹58,200. The concentration at 57,000 PE (11.54 L contracts) signals a strong floor, while the 58,000 CE build‑up (24.56 L contracts) marks the upper barrier. Given the spot at ₹57,239.75, the market is pricing a modest range‑bound outlook for the week ahead.

OI Buildup Activity

During the latest trading session, fresh OI spikes appear at 57,200 CE (+1.57 L), 57,000 CE (+1.28 L) and 57,900 CE (+1.26 L), indicating that writers are adding new positions near the current price. On the put side, the strongest additions occur at 57,000 PE (+1.63 L), 57,100 PE (+1.62 L) and 56,600 PE (+1.31 L), reflecting reinforcement of the support zone. The parallel rise in both call and put OI suggests that market participants are hedging rather than expressing a directional bias.
