An Insightful Analysis of Equity Derivative Trading on the NSE: Trends and Practices in India

Author(s) Dr. MOHD MUSAVVIR ALI
Country India
Abstract Derivatives are widely used financial instruments whose value is based on an underlying asset or a collection of assets. These underlying assets can include stocks, bonds, commodities, currencies, crude oil, interest rates, or market indices. The derivatives market is a financial arena where these contracts are traded. There are four main types of derivatives: forwards, futures, options, and swaps. These instruments are primarily utilized for risk management and to improve portfolio returns. The National Stock Exchange is recognized as a leader in this field, having initiated derivative trading in 2000.
This study examines the trading dynamics of derivatives associated with Nifty Index futures and options contracts. A thorough analysis is conducted to assess the trading volume and its impact on market fluctuations. Findings indicate that day trades account for approximately 37% and 48% of total trades in futures and options contracts, respectively, suggesting significant volatility in these two contract types.
The analysis reveals that individual trading volumes are notably higher in categories such as intra-day and non-trade trades. Variance is employed as an unbiased metric to evaluate fluctuations, while a Logit Regression function is utilized to analyze the influence of trading volume on trade size and inventory volatility. The research indicates that option contracts exhibit weaker volume estimates compared to futures contracts.
This research paper provides an analysis of volume and volatility estimates for both futures and options contracts on the NIFTY Index.
Keywords NSE, Market Volatility, Trading Volume Trends, Logistic Regression, Nifty Index.
