On Nifty call put data, Shilpa Rout, Derivatives Lead Analyst at Prabhudas Lilladher said, “Market definitely is on the secret mission to support the BULLs, as it’s getting on a buy on dips way. NIFTY Option chain for the weekly expiry reflects on CE writers aggressively adding over 70 thousand contracts at 18000CE, followed by highest fresh contracts at 18500CE – more than 40 thousand additions. PE writers making their way at 17000PE – with more than 60 thousand contracts overall, hints on the range in between 17000-19000 going forward. PCR OI at 17500 being nearly 2, is creating a fresh support base for the INDEX now.”

“Bank Nifty Future Option chain on PE writers being active at 38000PE – with more than 40 thousand contracts, and CE writers adding their positions all the way up till 42000 strike – with fresh additions of over 25 thousand contracts each, is definitely hinting on the strength to continue now,” Shilpa Rout said.
