When we rose from 4800 to 5100-5200 quickly, Put call ratio jumped from 0.95 to 1.5+. This meant more puts have been bought compared to calls. So if market falls, put writers would burn their hands with unlimited loss.. so their attempt will be to save themselves by not making the market fall.

Now, put call ratio past few days has dropped from 1.25 to 1.05 or so. Indicating more calls have been bought, means market sentiment was positive. Capitalizing on that, calls are being written even more because the sentiment is there means buyers are also there.

you are right TZ but I want to draw your attention that
PCR does not mean that put or call bought only.....
it is volume based and it is ZERO SUM GAME
if you understand my point how many buyer will be there they required same amount of seller... Hope you got my point
(Option seller will require 3-5 times more margin than option buyer so please understand that seller is having more money than buyers and they will drive option market as well as whole market - most of FII and others use it as HEDGING)
Happy trading Ahead,

Happy trading Ahead,
volumes also play an important role to decide the trend of the market one should read the volume aspect also before deciding the underlying trend :thumb:
