AI AnalysisGenerated daily after market close · AI-powered

Key Strike Levels

Strong support emerges at ₹155, anchored by peak put open interest, though current price action remains well above this level. Immediate resistance clusters at ₹340 and ₹330, where call writers have established dominant positions. The implied range, based on OI concentrations, suggests price containment between ₹280 and ₹340 over the medium term.

OI Buildup Activity

Fresh longs are building aggressively in calls at ₹340 (+3.47 lakh) and ₹330 (+3.18 lakh), signaling bullish conviction targeting upper breakout. Call writers are actively defending ₹340, suggesting limited upside appetite beyond this zone. On the put side, strong OI accumulation at ₹280 (+3.87 lakh) and fresh positions at ₹303.5 and ₹307.5 indicate put writers are anchoring downside protection nearer to spot.

Volatility Read

ATM IV at 18.76% reflects subdued near-term volatility expectations. The bearish skew highlights elevated demand for downside hedges, particularly through puts near ₹303.5 and ₹280.

Strategy Implication

Bias leans directionally cautious with a skew toward long call structures capped at ₹340, as writers limit runaway moves.
