Every Futures and Options contract is built around an underlying. As the underlying moves, the contract responds, but not always in the same way.
Contracts based on the same underlying can behave differently because of their expiry, market participation, implied volatility, and other contract-specific characteristics. Understanding this relationship is an important part of analysing derivatives.
That’s why we built Symbol Details for Futures and Options on FYERS. It helps you understand both the contract and its underlying through a connected view of price action, contract information, derivatives analytics, strategies, and technical analysis, making it easier to understand the opportunity before deciding what to explore next.
Start with the Overview
The Overview brings together the information you may want to check first before studying a Futures or Options contract in greater detail.
Depending on whether you’ve opened a Futures or an Options contract, some sections may vary to display information that’s relevant to that contract.
Analyse Contract Price Movement with Price Chart and Price Analysis
The Price Chart shows how the selected contract has moved during the trading session. Along with the current price and daily change, you can switch between different periods to see whether the movement is limited to the current session or part of a broader trend.
A technical observation may also appear above the chart, highlighting a relevant development in the contract. When you want to study the setup in greater detail, you can open the complete chart directly from this section.
Price Analysis complements the chart by placing the current contract price within its trading range across different periods. The supporting Price Stats provide information such as the day’s open, high, low, previous close, volume, VWAP, and the 52-week range.
For Options contracts, the corresponding details of the underlying are also available, making it easier to understand how movements in the underlying are reflected in the option premium.
Understand Market Participation with OI & Other Details
For Futures contracts, OI & Other Details brings together information that helps you understand how market participation is changing.
Review Open Interest, Change in Open Interest, percentage change in Open Interest, and the premium or discount to the underlying alongside the contract price to better understand trading activity.
Review Contract Information with Contract Details
Every Futures and Options contract comes with information that helps explain how it behaves.
For Futures, Contract Details includes information such as the expiry date, lot size, and other contract specifications.
For Options, you’ll find the relevant contract information alongside the option-specific sections available for that contract.
Understanding these details helps you evaluate the selected contract before moving further into your analysis.
Compare Contracts with Future Chain
The same underlying is often available across multiple futures expiries.
The Future Chain lets you compare contracts through their price, Open Interest, Change in Open Interest, volume, and premium or discount to the underlying, making it easier to understand how activity changes across expiries before opening a specific contract.
Analyse Derivatives Activity with Option Analytics
For contracts with an active options market, Option Analytics provides a broader view of derivatives activity around the underlying.
Study Open Interest, Change in Open Interest, Put-Call Ratio (PCR), and Max Pain together to better understand how positions are building across the options market.
Explore Trading Ideas with Strategies
Once you’ve formed a market view, the Strategies section helps you explore predefined options strategies that align with it.
Browse strategies under Bullish, Bearish, Neutral, and Any Direction. Each strategy includes a payoff diagram and a brief explanation, helping you understand how it works before continuing to Strategy Builder or Automate.
Analyse Historical Trends with Seasonality Chart
Markets can exhibit recurring patterns over time.
The Seasonality Chart shows how the underlying has historically performed across different months and quarters. Compare average returns, review historical performance across years, and see how often the period ended positively or negatively.
These patterns are based on historical performance and do not predict future returns. For a more detailed view, continue to Seasonality Insights.
Continue Your Analysis with Tools
The Tools section helps you continue your workflow.
Depending on the selected contract, you can open the Option Chain, launch Scalper, continue to Strategy Builder, or move to the F&O Dashboard.
