Call and Put Activity of 20th August 2021
Open of today was as expected and much lower to make advantage of trapped put sellers from the previous day, After the opening we did see both sided option writing in Nifty at the opening followed by PE writers dominating after the exit from previous PE writers which kept the nifty above the support levels for the day limiting the downside.
As per overall data from 20/8 none of the writers had conviction for one-sided writing either call/put but have preferred to write options on both sides which tells us to expect some rangebound action in Nifty going into the open on 23/8.
