NSE & BSE Indices Futures and Options Open Interest Volume Analysis for 5/08/2025

The Open Interest Volume Analysis for 5th August 2025 shows the market slipping back into caution after a short-lived bounce, with fresh short build-up seen across major indices. Nifty July futures dipped 0.34% to 24,707.80, while open interest crept up 0.6% and the premium remained above 58 points. This signals that sellers are re-entering aggressively, betting on further weakness as support levels are steadily tested. The weekly option data confirms these fears: the Put-Call Ratio (OI) dropped to 0.72, with a sharp rise in fresh call writing at 24,600 and puts added at 24,500. Max pain rests at 24,650, suggesting a tug-of-war but with a negative tilt. Monthly options echo this trend, with the PCR slipping to 0.97 and heavy open interest sitting at 25,000, framing resistance, while put support is now seen a full thousand points lower at 24,000.

BankNifty and FINNIFTY echoed the Nifty tone—both showing significant price declines, strong spikes in open interest (+18.6% in BankNifty), and open interest analysis highlighting new shorts. While both indices saw their premiums compress and fresh call open interest build at resistance zones, the broader midcap space (MIDCPNIFTY) saw long covering and a 1.3% drop in OI, signaling risk is further being trimmed out of high-beta pockets. SENSEX too saw a staggering 104.5% jump in OI, reinforcing the risk-off mood.

Conclusion: What the NSE & BSE Indices Futures and Options Open Interest Volume Analysis Tells Us

This session’s Open Interest Volume Analysis points to a market where sellers are once again asserting dominance and options positioning signals more downside risk in the near term. For Nifty, max pain at 24,650 becomes the pivot—range-bound trading is likely, but fails below 24,700 could quickly cascade to 24,500 and below, as both OI and PCR levels show little appetite for aggressive dip buying. For actionable trades, focus on bearish or neutral option spreads near 24,700–25,000 with tight stops, and avoid aggressive bottom-fishing until clear short covering emerges.

BankNifty and FINNIFTY participants should watch the 55,500–56,000 zone for any signs of reversal, but fresh shorts remain the low-risk trade as long as open interest continues to surge on down days. As always, use the Open Interest Volume Analysis to stay in sync with market sentiment—prioritize measured risk, quick profit-taking, and patience, as the August series shapes up to be driven by defensive strategies and tactical plays.
