The NIFTY50 Index snapped its three-week winning streak and closed in the red. The rising oil prices and FII (foreign institutional investor) sell-off pushed the markets lower. The US Fed has indicated that it may take one more rate hike this year. The fears of rising interest rates seem to have dampened the sentiments.
According to the options data, as per the 28 September expiry, the max call open interest (OI) build-up is at 19,800. It means that this level could act as a resistance. On the other hand, the max put OI build-up is at the 19,500 level – which could act as a support.
