What It Is:
The Put/Call ratio is a popular sentiment indicator. These types of indicators attempt to
gauge the prevailing level of bearishness in the market. Typically, sentiment indicators
are used as contrarian tools. In other words, when market participants are most bullish,
the likelihood of a downside reversal is greatest. And when investors become overly
bearish, a market rally may be on the horizon.
How ItWorks:
There are several Put/Call ratios in use. The one that many investors rely on is based on
data collected by the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE). Each day, the CBOE
adds together all of the call and put options that are traded on all individual equities.
Purchasing a call option, you'll remember, simply amounts to a bet that a particular a
stock or index will rise in value. By contrast, a put buyer is anticipating that an
underlying stock or index is poised to fall.

Definition of derivatives:-
Derivative is a product whose value is derived from the value of one or more basicvariables, called bases (underlying asset, index, or reference rate), in a contractual
manner.
The underlying asset can be equity, forex, commodity or any other asset. For e.g.:Wheat farmers may wish to sell their harvest at a future date to eliminate the risk of a
change in prices by that date. Such a transaction is an example of a derivative.

What are disadvantages of trading in derivatives?
Because of their ability to provide leveraging, derivative disasters are pretty common
in international markets.
just as there is huge potential of earning higher returns, it also exposes individuals and
corporation alike to money in case the market moves against the position held by them.
Too much leverage has been the cause of worry and pitfalls for many traders and
investors alike.

Derivative products:-
Derivative Contracts have several variants. The most common variants are forwards,
futures, options & swaps.
Forwards:-A Forward contract is a customized contract between 2 entities, where settlement takes
place on a specific date in the future at todays pre-agreed price.
Futures:-
A futures Contract is an agreement between 2 parties to buy or sell an asset at a certaintime in future at a certain price. Futures contract are special type of Forward contracts
in the sense that the former are standardized exchange-traded contracts.
Options:-
Options are of 2 types- calls and puts. Calls give the buyer the right but not theobligation to buy a given quantity of the underlying asset, at a given price on or before a
given future date. Puts give the buyer the right but not the obligation to sell a given
quantity of the underlying asset, at a given price on or before a given date.

What is Option Trading ?Options are fundamentally different from futures contracts. An option gives the
holder of the option the right to do something. The holder does not have to
exercise this right.
In contrast, a futures contract, the two parties have committed themselves to
doing something. Whereas it costs nothing (except margin requirements) to
enter into a futures contract, the purchase of an option requires an up-front
payment

Glossary of Options
Buyer of an option: The buyer of an option is the one who by paying the
option premium buys the right but not the obligation to exercise his
option on the seller/writer.
Writer of an option: The writer of a call/put option is the one who receives the
option premium and is thereby obliged to sell/buy the asset if the buyer
exercises on him.
Index option: These options have the index as the underlying. They are also
ash settled.
Stock option: Stock options are the option on individual stocks. Options
currently traded over the 500 stock in the US. A contract gives the holder the
right to buy or sell shares at the specified price.
American options:American options are the options that can be exercised at
any time up to the expiration date

European options: European options are the options that can be exercised
only on the expiration date itself.
In the money option (ITM) :
ITM option is an option that would lead to a cash flow to the holder if it were
exercised immediately. A call option on the index is said to be in the money
when the current index stands at the higher level in the strike price. If the index
is much higher than the strike price, the call is said to the deep ITM. In the caseof the put, the put is the ITM if the index is below the strike price.
At the money option (ATM)
ATM option is an option that would lead to a cash flow. If it is exercised
immediately. An option on the index is said to be at the money when the currentindex equal to the strike price.

Out the money option (OTM)
OTM option is an option that would lead to a negative cash flow to the holder if
it were exercised immediately. A call option on the index is said to be out themoney when the current index stands at the less level in the strike price. If the
index is much lower than the strike price, the call is said to the deep OTM. In
the case of the put, the put is the OTM if the index is above the strike price .
Covered Call Option
Covered option helps the writer to minimize his loss. In a covered call option,
the writer of the call option takes a corresponding long position in the stock in
the cash market; this will cover his loss in his option position if there is a sharp
increase in price of the stock. Further, he is able to bring down his average costof acquisition in the cash market (which will be the cost of acquisition less the
option premium collected)

FINDING
Lack of Investor Awareness about the Derivatives Market & its Trading.
Derivatives Market basically trades depending upon the Underlying Securities. Sosmall fluctuations in the security results in changes in strategies for that particular
Derivative.
Small Investors usually prefer Cash Market over Derivatives Market because of Risk
& ignorance about market conditions.
In many of the Brokerage houses Application of Strategies on day-to-day basis is very
rare. The tendency is to have long position when market is bullish, & go for short
position when market is bearish.

Recommendations
Avoiding wrong perception of the investors.
Investors think that, Derivative trading is more risky than equity trading; it is a bettingetc. their views are not cleared about derivative market. These wrong perceptions of the
investors should be avoided by giving proper suggestions to the clients.
Suggest the derivative trading to their clients who has currently invested in equity
market. On the basis of their income capacity, risk bearing capacity of the investor.
Introducing strategies to the Investors.

CONCLUSION
After completing the project I came to know that Effective measurement of put-
call ratio helps to manage all the activities properly.
We are found some limitation also that is The study of the project is subject to the timeconstraints as only two contract period is taken into consideration. Only few companies
and Index i.e. Nifty are taken for interpreting and explaining the strategies. Premiums
and margins taken for explaining the strategies are not accurate but at the same time it is
made sure that it is not imaginary.
The final major advantage of options is that they offer more investment alternatives.
Options are a very flexible tool. There are many ways to use options to recreate other
positions. We call these positions synthetics.
Put-call ratio is most important function because investment is help to future
planning.
