Hi Avinash,
Am a beginner in this field myself but like I said before.....always glad to help someone who really wants to learn(again,can only help to the extent that I know.....the inner intricacies you got to find out from the other more experienced traders who are there in this forum......or Traderji himself!) Simply put,open interest is the number of contracts that are still outstanding.Therefore,when one new buyer + one new seller enters the market,open interest increases by one.When the buyer sells his position and the seller covers his position,open interest decrease by one.Also,new buyer buys from an old buyer who sells his contract,then open interest remains unchanged.Vice versa for the seller,it remains unchanged. Open Interest is not just a statistic.....very useful for every futures trader!! Few scenarios and how we can profit: 1.Price in uptrend + open interest is rising >>>BULLISH!!! 2.Price in downtrend + open interest is rising >>>BEARISH!!! 3.Price in uptrend + open interest is falling >>>BEARISH!! 4.Price in downtrend + open interest is falling >>>BULLISH!!! I am sure there are more possible scenarios.....also sure that more ways to profit from Open Interest other than those listed above,but can't help you there.Others have got to answer that one! Happy Trading!! Saint |
