outstanding derivates contract that has been unsettled like Futures and Opinions.
However, it is vital to know that the OI equals to total number of bought and sold
contracts, not the summation of both. Increase in the OI refers to the incoming of
money while decrease in OI refers to the outgoing of the money in the market.
2. Change in OI: Change in OI occurs only when the new buyer-seller enters into the
market and creates new contract. For example, if one of the traders has 100 contract
short (i.e., sale) and another trader has 100 contract long (i.e., purchase) then these
traders buy and sell the contracts and after that it is deducted from the open
interest.

contracts that are being exchanged between buyer and seller.

between a buyer and seller of a particular stock.
