1Y Forward EPS Growth
(1 Varsh Ke Aage Ka EPS Vridhi): Is parameter ka upayog company ke expected earnings per share (EPS) ki aane wale ek varsh me vridhi ko darust karne ke liye hota hai.
For example, agar ek company ka abhi ke EPS Rs. 10 hai aur 1Y Forward EPS Growth 15% hai, to iska matlab hai ki agle ek varsh tak company ki earnings per share Rs. 10 se 15% badhkar Rs. 11.50 tak ho sakti hai.
EPS (EARNING PER SHARE) DEFINE-
EPS (Earnings Per Share): Earnings Per Share is a financial metric that represents the portion of a company's profit allocated to each outstanding share of common stock. It is calculated by dividing the company's net income (profit) by the total number of outstanding shares. EPS is an important financial metric because it helps investors assess a company's profitability on a per-share basis.
It also allows investors to compare the earnings of different companies, making it a valuable tool for evaluating and making investment decisions.
To calculate the EPS for ABC Inc., you would use the formula:
EPS = Net Income / Number of Outstanding Shares
EPS = $1,000,000 / 500,000 = $2.00 per share
So, the Earnings Per Share for ABC Inc. is $2.00. This means that for each share of ABC Inc.'s common stock, the company earned $2.00 in profit during the last fiscal year.
3Y Historical Dividend Growth (3 Varsh Ke Itihasik Dividend Vridhi): Is parameter ka upayog company ke diye gaye dividends ke pichle 3 varsh me ki gayi average vridhi ko darust karne ke liye hota hai.
For example, agar ek company ne pichle 3 varsh me apne shareholders ko dividends diye hain aur unka average vridhi 5% hai, to iska matlab hai ki company ke dividends pichle 3 varsh me average 5% se badhe hain.
5Y Historical Revenue Growth
(5 Varsh Ke Itihasik Revenue Vridhi): Is parameter ka upayog company ke total revenue ke pichle 5 varsh me ki gayi average vridhi ko darust karne ke liye hota hai.

1Y Hist Op. Cash Flow Growth (1 Varsh Ke Itihasik Opereshanl Nakdi Pravritti Vridhi): Is parameter ka upayog company ke opereshanl cash flow ke pichle ek varsh me ki gayi vridhi ko darust karne ke liye hota hai.
For example, agar ek company ke opereshanl cash flow pichle ek varsh me 10% se badh gaya hai, to iska matlab hai ki company ke opereshanl cash flow pichle ek varsh me 10% tak badh gaya hai.
5Y Hist Op. Cash Flow Growth (5 Varsh Ke Itihasik Opereshanl Nakdi Pravritti Vridhi): Is parameter ka upayog company ke opereshanl cash flow ke pichle 5 varsh me ki gayi average vridhi ko darust karne ke liye hota hai.
For example, agar ek company ke opereshanl cash flow pichle 5 varsh me average 12% se badha hai, to iska matlab hai ki company ke opereshanl cash flow pichle 5 varsh me average 12% ki vridhi dekh raha hai.
5Y Historical EBITDA Growth (5 Varsh Ke Itihasik EBITDA Vridhi): Is parameter ka upayog company ke EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) ke pichle 5 varsh me ki gayi average vridhi ko darust karne ke liye hota hai.
For example, agar ek company ke EBITDA pichle 5 varsh me average 15% se badha hai, to iska matlab hai ki company ke EBITDA pichle 5 varsh me average 15% ki vridhi dekh raha hai.
1Y Historical EBITDA Growth (1 Varsh Ke Itihasik EBITDA Vridhi): Is parameter se aap jan sakte hain ki ek company ke EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) me pichle ek varsh me kis tarah ki vridhi huyi hai. EBITDA ek company ke opereshanl pradarshan ko darust karta hai.

"Future and option trading" refers to financial derivatives contracts that allow investors and traders to speculate on the future price movements of underlying assets, such as stocks, commodities, or indices, without owning the assets themselves. These trading instruments are widely used for risk management, hedging, and speculation in the financial markets.
- such as stocks,
- commodities, or
- indices
Here's an explanation of both terms with practical examples:
Futures Trading:
Definition: Futures are standardized contracts that obligate the buyer to purchase and the seller to sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price or strike price (Jo price pahle hi tay ho chauka hai) on a specified future date. They are commonly used in commodities markets (e.g., oil, gold, wheat) but also exist for financial instruments like stock indices.
Example: Let's say you are a wheat farmer, and you expect to harvest a large wheat crop in six months. To protect against falling wheat prices, you can enter into a wheat futures contract to sell your wheat at the current market price in six months. If the market price drops by then, you still get the higher price specified in the contract.
Options Trading:
Definition: Options are financial contracts that provide the buyer with the right (but not the obligation) to buy (call option) or sell (put option) an underlying asset at a predetermined price (strike price) on or before a specific future date (expiration date).
Call Option - Ham sochte hai ki jab stock ka price increase hoga toh ham stock ko bech k profit book kar lenge is called Call (BUY OPTION) lekin iske viprit
"put option" SELL naam ki cheez hoti hai jo ye btati hai ki agar aap aaj jo stock market ka price hai like (100$) future me es stock ka price 80$ ho jayega toh aap aaj hi ek contract karle brokerage se ki agar future me agar es stock ki price kam hui toh aap ye stock mujse 100$ me hi purchase karoge,(means predetermine price or strick price) ,iske liye brokerage apse es risk ke badle kuch fees bhi lega like 10,20$
now put option - hame doller kam hone par bhi profit book karke dega.
Example: Imagine you are an investor holding 100 shares of a tech company, and you are concerned (संबंधित) about a potential drop in its stock price. You can purchase put options with a strike price below the current stock price. If the stock's price falls below the strike price, you can sell it at the higher strike price, limiting your losses.
It's important to note that futures and options trading can be complex, and it's crucial to understand the risks and strategies involved. Many traders use these instruments to diversify their portfolios, manage risk, or seek profit opportunities based on their market outlook.
Practical Example: Imagine there are 1,000 call options and 800 put options for a particular stock. The open interest for that stock's options is 1,800 contracts
These terms are related to the futures and options market and are used to analyze the trading activity in options and futures contracts:
1D Change in Put OI (Open Interest):
This term refers to the change in open interest for put options contracts within a single trading day. Open interest represents the total number of outstanding options contracts for a specific strike price and expiration date. An increase in put open interest may indicate a bearish sentiment, as more traders are betting on the underlying asset's price to fall.
Suppose you are tracking a stock, and the 1D change in put open interest for the $50 strike price options increased from 1,000 contracts to 2,500 contracts in a single trading day. This indicates that more traders are betting on the stock's price to decline, possibly due to negative news or technical indicators.
Highest 1D OI Change CE Strike:
This term refers to the call options strike price that experienced the highest change in open interest (2,000 contracts to 3,500 contracts within a day) within a single trading day. It signifies the strike price for call options that saw the most significant increase in trading activity during that day. A high change in open interest can indicate increased interest or activity in that specific strike price.
Imagine a stock where the 1D change in call open interest for the $70 strike price options increased from 2,000 contracts to 3,500 contracts within a day. This signals that more traders are bullish on the stock's future price, possibly based on positive news or technical analysis.
1D Change in Call OI:
Similar to the 1D change in put open interest, this term represents the change in open interest for call options contracts within a single trading day. An increase in call open interest may indicate a bullish sentiment, as more traders are speculating on the underlying asset's price to rise.
Let's say you observe that the $60 strike price call options had the highest 1D change in open interest, increasing from 500 contracts to 2,000 contracts in a single trading day. This suggests that many traders are showing interest in these call options, possibly because they anticipate a significant upward price movement.
1D Change in Future OI:
This term refers to the change in open interest for futures contracts within a single trading day. Open interest for futures contracts represents the total number of outstanding contracts. An increase in futures open interest may indicate greater trading activity and interest in the underlying asset.
If you are following a commodity futures contract, and the open interest for that contract increased from 5,000 to 7,000 contracts within a single trading day, it indicates a surge (उछाल का संकेत देता है) in trading interest and suggests that more participants are getting involved in the futures market.
Highest 1D OI Change PE Strike:
This term identifies the put options strike price that experienced the highest change in open interest within a single trading day. It indicates the strike price for put options that saw the most significant increase in trading activity during that day. A high change in open interest can indicate increased interest or activity in that specific strike price.
Consider a scenario where the $55 strike price put options had the highest 1D change in open interest, rising from 800 contracts to 3,000 contracts in one trading day. This indicates a significant increase in bearish sentiment as traders expect the underlying asset's price to decline.
Highest 1D OI Change PE Strike:
Definition: This refers to the highest change in open interest (OI) for put options (PE) with a specific strike price within a single trading day. Open interest represents the total number of outstanding option contracts for a particular strike price.
Example: If within one trading day, the open interest for put options with a strike price of $50 increased by 1,000 contracts, that would be the "Highest 1D OI Change PE Strike."
1D Change in Future Volume:
Definition: This represents the change in trading volume for a futures contract within a single trading day. It measures how many futures contracts have been traded compared to the previous day.
Example: If 5,000 crude oil futures contracts were traded today, and yesterday, only 3,000 contracts were traded, the "1D Change in Future Volume" would be 2,000 contracts.
Highest 1W OI Change CE Strike:
Definition: This refers to the highest change in open interest (OI) for call options (CE) with a specific strike price within one trading week (1W). It measures the most significant increase in outstanding call option contracts within the week.
Example: If, over a week, the open interest for call options with a strike price of $75 increased by 2,500 contracts, that would be the "Highest 1W OI Change CE Strike."
1W Change in Call OI:
Definition: This indicates the change in open interest (OI) for call options within one trading week. It measures the increase or decrease in the number of outstanding call option contracts during the week.
Example: If the open interest for call options increased by 1,000 contracts during one trading week, the "1W Change in Call OI" would be 1,000.
1W Change in Future OI:
Definition: This represents the change in open interest (OI) for a futures contract within one trading week. It measures the increase or decrease in the number of outstanding futures contracts over the week.
Example: If the open interest for a specific crude oil futures contract decreased by 500 contracts within one trading week, the "1W Change in Future OI" would be -500.
Highest 1W OI Change PE Strike:
Definition: This refers to the highest change in open interest (OI) for put options (PE) with a specific strike price within one trading week (1W). It measures the most significant increase in outstanding put option contracts within the week.
Example: If, during one trading week, the open interest for put options with a strike price of $60 increased by 3,000 contracts, that would be the "Highest 1W OI Change PE Strike."
1W Change in Put OI (Open Interest):
Definition: This refers to the change in open interest for put options within one trading week. It measures the increase or decrease in the number of outstanding put option contracts over the week.
Example: If the open interest for put options on Company XYZ increased by 500 contracts during one trading week, the "1W Change in Put OI" would be +500.
1W Change in Future Volume:
Definition: This indicates the change in trading volume for a futures contract within one trading week. It measures how many futures contracts have been traded compared to the previous week.
Example: If 10,000 crude oil futures contracts were traded this week, and last week, only 7,000 contracts were traded, the "1W Change in Future Volume" would be +3,000 contracts.
Cash & Carry Profit:
Definition: Cash & Carry Profit refers to a riskless arbitrage strategy where an investor borrows money at a lower interest rate to purchase an asset expected to yield a higher return, thereby making a profit from the interest rate differential.
Example: If an investor borrows $10,000 at a 3% interest rate and invests it in a bond yielding 5%, they make a cash & carry profit of 2% ($200) annually.
Highest Call OI Strike:
Definition: This refers to the strike price for call options with the highest open interest. Open interest represents the total number of outstanding option contracts for a particular strike price.
Example: If the open interest for call options with a strike price of $80 is the highest among all strike prices, it would be the "Highest Call OI Strike."
Calendar Spread:
Definition: A calendar spread is an options trading strategy involving two options with the same strike price but different expiration dates. Traders use this strategy to profit from changes in implied volatility or time decay.
Example: Buying a call option on Company A with a strike price of $100 that expires in three months and simultaneously selling a call option on the same stock with the same $100 strike price but with an expiration date in one month is a calendar spread.
Fair Value:
Definition: Fair value represents the calculated or estimated intrinsic value of a security or asset. It is used to determine whether a security is overvalued or undervalued in the market.
Example: If the fair value of a stock is determined to be $50 based on fundamental analysis, and the stock is currently trading at $45, it may be considered undervalued.
Fair Value Spread:
Definition: Fair value spread is the difference between the current market price of a security and its calculated fair value. It can be used to assess potential investment opportunities.
Example: If the fair value of a bond is $1,000, but it is currently trading at $950 in the market, the fair value spread is $50.
Basis:
Definition: Basis refers to the price difference between a cash or spot market and the futures market for the same underlying asset.
Example: If the cash price of crude oil is $60 per barrel, but the futures price for delivery in three months is $65 per barrel, the basis is $5.
Future Close Price:
Definition: The future close price is the final trading price of a futures contract at the end of a trading session.
Example: If the closing price of a gold futures contract for the day is $1,800 per ounce, that would be the "Future Close Price."
Lot Size:
Definition: Lot size refers to the quantity of shares or units in a single futures or options contract. It determines how much of the underlying asset is being traded in one contract.
Example: If the lot size for a stock futures contract is 100 shares, each contract represents 100 shares of the underlying stock.
Future Open Interest:
Definition: Future open interest is the total number of outstanding futures contracts that have not been closed or delivered by the end of a trading day.
Example: If there are 5,000 open contracts for S&P 500 futures at the end of the trading day, the future open interest for that day is 5,000 contracts.
Future Volume:
Definition: Future volume refers to the total number of futures contracts traded during a specific time period, often a trading session.
Example: If 10,000 crude oil futures contracts were traded during a trading session, the future volume for that session is 10,000 contracts.
Call Open Interest:
Definition: Call open interest is the total number of outstanding call option contracts that have not been closed or exercised.
Example: If there are 2,000 open contracts for call options on Company XYZ, the call open interest for those options is 2,000 contracts.
Put Open Interest:
Definition: Put open interest is the total number of outstanding put option contracts that have not been closed or exercised.
Example: If there are 3,500 open contracts for put options on Company ABC, the put open interest for those options is 3,500 contracts.
Highest Put OI Strike:
Definition: This refers to the strike price for put options with the highest open interest. It represents the strike price with the most open put option contracts.
Example: If the open interest for put options with a strike price of $50 is the highest among all strike prices, it would be the "Highest Put OI Strike."
Put Call Ratio:
Definition: The put-call ratio is a ratio that compares the volume of put options to call options traded on a particular day. It is used as a sentiment indicator.
Example: If there were 1,000 put options and 2,500 call options traded today, the put-call ratio would be 1,000/2,500, which simplifies to 0.4.
Rollover Cost:
Definition: Rollover cost is the expense associated with closing out a soon-to-expire futures contract and opening a new one with a later expiration date.
Example: If a trader holds a crude oil futures contract about to expire and wants to continue their position, they must close out the current contract and open a new one. The cost incurred in this process is the rollover cost.
Percentage Rollover:
Definition: Percentage rollover refers to the percentage of open contracts that have been rolled over to the next expiration date. It provides insights into the proportion of traders who have extended their positions.
Example: If 70% of the open positions in a specific futures contract have been rolled over to the next contract with a later expiration date, the percentage rollover is 70%.
