Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sensex expiry today is the Sensex weekly expiry of BSE options at 3:30 pm IST, with a lot size of 20 and the at-the-money strike near 73,300. The live put call ratio from 9:15 to 10:17 am was 0.92, with about 8.61 crore units of call open interest against 7.95 crore of put open interest, so call writers hold slightly more positions than put writers. A pricing page snapshot shows max pain at 73,600, which is above the spot price of about 73,348. Bulls need the Sensex to reclaim about 73,530 and then the 73,709.69 previous close to stage a comeback, and those are my reference levels and not forecasts.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Sensex expiry today comes after three straight falls, with the index down about 2% from its 16 Oct close of 74,729.27, and the question in the headline is whether bulls can stage a comeback before the 3:30 pm expiry. The data points to a cautious answer: the Sensex is trading below its 20-day average and call open interest slightly exceeds put open interest.<\/p>\n

This article on the Sensex expiry today prediction covers the contract details, the open interest reading, where the index stands, the bull and bear levels, what a comeback needs and the risks of trading expiry day. Where a level is my own reference, I say so. It is educational and not a recommendation to trade any option or future.<\/p>\n
