1️⃣ FII Activity & Derivatives Positioning

 

FIIs have sold ₹8,000+ crore in the cash market, indicating continued risk-off sentiment.

 

In the F&O segment:

 

Increased net index futures short positions

 

Added net index call shorts

 

Increased net index put longs (hedging bias)

 

 

Key Indicators:

 

PCR: ~1.0 (neutral zone)

 

FII Index Futures Long–Short Ratio: ~9% (near historical lows)

 

Inference: Despite market recovery, FIIs remain strongly bearish, and importantly, no signs of short covering yet.

 

 

 

 

2️⃣ Global Cues

 

Global sentiment has turned positive, supported by:

 

De-escalation efforts led by Donald Trump

 

Broad-based recovery across global equity markets

 

 

Key Trigger:

 

If Brent Crude falls below $94, recovery could sustain and accelerate

 

Focus Area: Ongoing US–Iran talks remain the biggest near-term trigger.

5️⃣ Strategy & Stance

 

Markets are witnessing a sharp recovery with strong momentum, but:

 

Macro environment remains uncertain & news-driven

 

Volatility can spike anytime

 

Our Approach:

 

Prefer selective stock-specific trades

 

Maintain tight stop losses

 

Avoid overnight positions without proper hedging

 

Bottom Line:

Momentum is positive, but smart money (FIIs) is still defensive — stay agile, disciplined, and risk-managed.
