India VIX increased by 5.69% to close at 18.73 touching an intra-day high of 19.33.
Highest addition in call OI to the tune of 3.39mn once again suggest bearish undertone in the markets. Shifting of put OI build from 6000, 6100 to 5800 level indicates immediate support for the Nifty Future at 5900 level.
Highest OI build-up is seen at 6100 Call and 5900 strike Put, to the tune of 8.66 mn and 9.73 mn respectively.
Markets are likely to open on a positive note following the positive global cues and are likely to remain range bound during the day.
