NSE Futures Analysis — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Futures Analysis dashboard used for?
Track and compare critical futures metrics — Open Interest (OI), Traded Volume, and Turnover — across multiple contract expiries on a single interactive chart. Identify where rollover and OI accumulation are happening, and which expiry contracts are most active.
Why are futures metrics grouped by Expiry Date?
Futures contracts exist simultaneously with multiple monthly and weekly expiry dates. Comparing near-month vs next-month OI side-by-side reveals rollover activity — when OI falls in near expiry and rises in the next, it signals position rollovers ahead of expiry.
What is the relationship between futures price and open interest?
  • Price ↑ + OI ↑ = Long Build-up (bullish)
  • Price ↑ + OI ↓ = Short Covering (bullish exit)
  • Price ↓ + OI ↑ = Short Build-up (bearish)
  • Price ↓ + OI ↓ = Long Unwinding (bearish exit)
This is the standard OI interpretation framework used by professional NSE F&O traders.
What does Futures Traded Value represent?
Futures Traded Value (TRD_VAL) is the total contract value exchanged during the trading session. High turnover = high institutional participation and liquidity. Comparing TRD_VAL vs OI change reveals whether activity is positional (high OI change) or intraday (high volume, low OI change).
How do I identify rollover using futures OI data?
Rollover is when traders close near-expiry contracts and open fresh positions in the next expiry. In the chart, you'll see OI fall sharply in the near-month contract in the last week before expiry, while next-month OI rises simultaneously. High rollover with same directional bias (long or short) signals trend continuation beyond expiry.
