Option Open Interest for 25-02-2013

Inference
Nifty had another day of huge volatility but ultimately closed flat at 5854.75, a small gain of 4.45 point. The only heartening point for the Bulls was that the low around 5825 was promptly bought by the responsive buyers. The broader market though was very weak, with just 422 advances to 1083 declines. As per OI table, the range of 5800-5950 still remains for tomorrow.
