Option Open Interest for 12-07-2012

Inference
Nifty opened weak on the back of bad global cues and sub-par first quarter result from Infosys. The index remained weak and was unable to make any positive move and closed the day at the lowest level at 5235.25 a huge loss of 71.05 points. The OI Table saw a complete makeover with the CE writers taking charge and PE writers covering from 5100 and above levels. Only positive point for the Bulls were that Nifty OI did not change much, so at least not much of shorts were added to the system.
