What You Will Learn

The trinity of volume, delivery, and Open Interest along with price movements, gives us an idea of how the market players act. The understanding of the movement of the market players gives the traders an edge to success.  

Open Interest is a term often masked in mystery and deserves our attention. It shows the number of outstanding contracts in the market, showing the contract made between parties. In derivatives trading, where leverage plays an important role, Open Interest becomes a key standard to measure market trends. It is crucial for analyzing the behavior of stock market operators and predicting price movements in the stock market. Mr. Vivek Bajaj highlights how this indicator reflects activity or interest in a specific financial product, like an option, futures contract, or stock. Growing open interest, which denotes increased participation and interest in a particular stock or derivative, indicates a stronger trend. 

Why is Open Interest crucial? Mr. Vivek Bajaj explains that if you imagine, a scenario where you commit to buying or selling shares in the future. This commitment, summarized in a contract, forms the foundation of Open Interest. It signifies the potential for future market trends, guiding traders in their decision-making process. 

Mr. Vivek Bajaj continues by outlining the intricate concepts of open interest and how they affect trading tactics. Every detail counts when trading, whether you're examining patterns over several months or monitoring Open Interest development over various contract durations. He will also go over the operator's motivations for gaining or losing market shares. We can identify market patterns and possible opportunities by establishing a correlation between price movements and Open Interest data.  

In conclusion, through this episode, he offers insights that unexpected increases in open interest combined with significant price swings could point to collective attempts by stock traders to control prices or take on new positions. These changes make it easier to know when stock operators might engage in insider trading or market manipulation.
