The June series started with lighter open positions and rallied in first fortnight along with fresh long build-up. However, the Nifty failed to sustain above its crucial hurdle of 10,850 10,900 and started correcting.
The fall seen in the last two weeks was supported by the good amount of short positions. However, low rollover (64.05percent), both in term of open interest (-2.16percent MoM) as well as in percentage term (quarterly average is 67.89percent), indicates that most of the positions formed in June series didnt get carried to July series.
Thus, fresh open interest build-up from current level will dictate the further move in the index. In the month gone by, FIIs added a good amount of fresh short positions in index futures and as a result, their Long Short Ratio has reached to 35 percent from 44.20 percent at the start of the series.
