What is Multi Strike OI in Options Analytics?

Multi Strike OI in Options Analytics lets you track Open Interest (OI) movement across multiple option strikes simultaneously over time for a selected underlying and expiry.

This view helps you compare how participation is changing across strikes, making it easier to monitor where activity is building or fading during the trading session.

Available on FYERS Web and FYERS App.

What does Multi Strike OI show?

Multi Strike OI displays a time-based chart of Open Interest for multiple option strikes of the selected underlying and expiry.

You can view data under three modes:

  • Active by OI – strikes with the highest Open Interest activity
  • Active by Volume – strikes with the highest trading volume
  • Custom strikes – manually selected strikes (up to 10 strikes)

Each selected strike is plotted as a separate line, allowing you to compare how OI evolves over time.

How to use Multi Strike OI?

Use this view to:

  • Track how OI changes across multiple strikes together
  • Compare the relative participation between strikes
  • Identify shifts in focus as the market price moves
  • Monitor OI build-up or unwinding during the session

This view is designed purely for analysis and comparison, not for trade execution.
