Understanding MWPL and the table
- MWPL is the maximum aggregate open interest permitted in a stock's derivatives.
- A stock enters the F&O ban when aggregate open interest exceeds 95% of MWPL; while it is in ban, participants may only reduce existing positions.
- Normal trading resumes when aggregate open interest falls to 80% of MWPL or below.
- T-1 is the latest completed trading session, T-2 is the preceding completed session, and Change (pp) is T-1 MWPL utilisation minus T-2 MWPL utilisation in percentage points.
How might the impending F&O ban on Kaynes Technology India impact its short-term price volatility and liquidity once the 95% MWPL threshold is breached?
What are the potential market implications for LIC Housing Finance given the sharp 7.42 percentage point surge in open interest following the recent bulk trade?
Could Ambuja Cements' upcoming investor interactions in Singapore influence its derivative open interest levels enough to trigger an F&O ban before November?
