Trade Smarter with OI + LTP – One View, Many Insights3 min read
“In the markets, clarity isn’t just power—it’s a difference between your profit and loss.”
In the fast-paced world of options trading, every second counts. Traders are constantly scanning data, calculating momentum, checking volumes, tracking trends, each element a piece of a bigger, rapidly shifting puzzle. But what if some of the most vital data points, like Open Interest (OI) and Last Traded Price (LTP), could come together in a single, intuitive view? That’s exactly what our new Options Chain enhancement delivers.
At Paytm Money, we believe in making trading tools more intelligent and user-first. That’s why we’ve introduced a powerful yet simple feature: a unified display of OI and LTP right within the Options Chain, designed to minimize effort, maximize speed, and help traders spot opportunities faster than ever.
Why This Matters to Traders?
Options trading is often driven by the analysis of liquidity (via OI) and market momentum (via LTP). But when these indicators are siloed across screens or buried in tabs, it adds friction, forcing traders to toggle between data points or perform mental gymnastics to make sense of the market.
This fragmentation can lead to:
- Slower decision-making
- Missed build-up signals
- Higher risk in volatile markets
- Increased cognitive overload
Our new view helps cut through this clutter.
What’s New: A Unified, Streamlined View
With the new Options Chain interface, you now get:
- Open Interest + LTP side by side: See how many contracts are being built up or unwound, right next to where the action is happening, in terms of price.
- Color-coded OI movement: Spot build-up (bullish/bearish) and unwinding in a glance, with intuitive color cues.
- Compact, clean design: No clutter. No confusion. Just fast, focused scanning.
This isn’t just a visual update—it’s a shift in how traders interact with core market signals.
Putting the User at the Center
This feature came to life through real conversations with traders. We observed behaviors, friction points, and workflow slowdowns. What emerged was a clear insight: traders don’t need more data, they need better clarity.
From design to functionality, every element of this feature was built with this principle in mind: how can we reduce the time between observation and action?
Whether you’re a seasoned trader looking for edge or a new entrant trying to read the signals, this enhancement makes analysis quicker, easier, and more intuitive.
What It Means for You?
With OI and LTP unified in one place, you can now:
- Scan options faster without toggling screens
- Spot momentum early with real-time OI shifts
- React confidently with a clearer view of liquidity
- Trade smarter with reduced noise and improved signal clarity
Conclusion
At Paytm Money, we’re committed to building tools that empower, not overwhelm. The enhanced Options Chain with a unified OI + LTP view is more than a visual upgrade; it’s a thoughtful step toward making trading intuitive, insightful, and user-centric. By reducing friction and simplifying how vital data is consumed, this update helps traders stay agile, confident, and ahead of the curve. After all, in a market that moves by the seconds, clarity isn’t a luxury, it’s an edge.
