Canara Bank Open Interest & PCR Analysis

OI Buildup Pattern

The open‑interest profile remains neutral, as the spot price is flat at ₹117.82 and total OI shows no net change, indicating that neither long‑side accumulation nor short‑side accumulation dominates the positioning for this expiry. Because price movement is stagnant and OI is unchanged, the market lacks a clear directional bias, suggesting that traders are waiting for new information before adjusting their exposure. This equilibrium between buys and sells reflects a balanced stance where existing contracts are being held rather than aggressively rolled or unwound.

Put‑Call Ratio

The PCR stands at 1.068, marginally above the breakeven of one, signaling that put‑side interest slightly exceeds call‑side interest for the current expiry. Compared with yesterday’s 0.71, the ratio has risen sharply, indicating a recent tilt toward protective or bearish positioning relative to the prior day’s more call‑heavy bias.

Futures OI

Futures open‑interest registers a net zero change, with both long and short legs remaining static, implying that speculative activity in the futures segment is dormant at present. The absence of new contracts being added or removed suggests that market participants are not altering their leveraged exposure and are instead maintaining their existing hedge or speculative positions.

Data Summary

The decisive figure for this expiry is the unchanged total OI of 5,10,57,000, underscoring a flat‑lined positioning environment.
