Sensex Weekly Expiry: Expect Short Covering Above 74,080 Level

 

By Dalal Street Investment Journal (DSIJ)
 

Summary:


Sensex weekly expiry outlook for June 11 shows the index holding above 74,000 after a weak start, supported by improving intraday momentum. Options data indicates 73,500 as key support, while 74,500 remains the major resistance due to heavy call open interest. A sustained move above 74,080 may trigger short covering towards 74,300–74,400.

The BSE Sensex opened lower on weekly expiry day, tracking weak global cues. During the first hour, the index remained range-bound as traders avoided aggressive positions. However, buying interest improved as the session progressed, helping the index recover from the early weakness.

As of 11:29 am, the Sensex was trading above the psychological 74,000 mark at 74,045, up 62 points or 0.09%.

Call Writers Active at 74,000 and 74,500

Options data shows that the second-highest open interest addition on the Call (CE) side is at the 74,000 CE strike. The highest addition, however, is visible at the 74,500 CE strike, making it the key resistance zone for the day.

If the Sensex manages to sustain above 74,080, Call writers at the 74,000 strike may come under pressure. This could lead to short covering and may push the index towards the 74,300–74,400 zone.

However, the upside may face a strong hurdle near 74,500, as this strike holds significant Call open interest. Unless there is a strong breakout backed by momentum, this level is likely to act as stiff resistance on Sensex weekly expiry day.

Put Writers Build Support at 73,500

On the Put side, the highest open interest addition is seen at the 73,500 PE strike. This indicates that Put writers are showing confidence around this level. As a result, 73,500 becomes an important support zone for the Sensex in today’s weekly expiry setup.

The Put-Call Ratio stands at 0.95, suggesting a balanced positioning between Call and Put writers. Meanwhile, the Max Pain is placed at 73,500, which also supports the view that this level remains important for the expiry.

Sensex Weekly Expiry Outlook 

Overall, the Sensex appears to be trading within a broad expiry range of 73,500 to 74,500. A sustained move above 74,080 may trigger short covering towards 74,300–74,400, while 74,500 is likely to remain the major resistance.

On the downside, 73,500 remains the key support level. A break below this level may weaken the expiry structure, but until then, the index is likely to trade with a mildly positive to range-bound bias.
