Tomorrow's Market View (Based on Participant Data)

Date: Based on today’s data snapshot

Source: Participant-wise Open Interest + Cash Market Flow

Cash Market Snapshot:

  • DII: Buy ₹3,715 Cr → Positive sentiment from domestic institutions
  • FII/FPI: Sell ₹5,045.36 Cr → Heavy outflow, a negative drag on sentiment

Participant-Wise Positioning (Derivatives Data):

Clients:

  • Net Long in Futures (Index + Stock): +45,255 contracts
  • Net Long in Options (Call & Put): Long biased
  • 🔸 View: Retail traders are bullish, especially in stock futures and stock options.

 DIIs (Domestic Institutions):

  • Net Long in Futures: +3,612 contracts
  • Heavy short in stock options
  • 🔸 View: Neutral to slightly bearish, possibly hedging via options

 FIIs (Foreign Institutions):

  • Net Short in Futures: -17,002 contracts
  • Aggressive shorts across Index Options and Futures
  • 🔸 View: Strong bearish stance, adding downside pressure

 Pros (Prop Traders):

  • Slightly Long in Futures: +30,015 contracts
  • Net Short in Options: heavy short on puts (hedging?)
  • 🔸 View: Mixed to Bearish, with large option plays

 Total Market Bias:

  • Total Long Contracts: -29.55 lakh
  • Total Short Contracts: -29.55 lakh
  • 🔄 Balanced Open Interest, but the composition is bearish due to FIIs and hedging activity by Pros and DIIs.

Tomorrow’s Market Outlook:

Despite strong DII buying in the cash market, FII outflows and aggressive short positions in derivatives suggest caution for tomorrow. Expect volatility with a bearish-to-rangebound bias, especially if global cues remain weak.

📌 Sectors to Watch:

  • Defensive stocks may gain support
  • Avoid high-beta stocks unless volumes indicate reversal
  • Option sellers may dominate if rangebound movement continues
