Global Cues >> TDT 🌍 Markets remain in wait & watch mode as US-Iran diplomacy continues. Mixed headlines on the reopening of the Strait of #Hormuz and alleged Israel-Lebanon ceasefire violations are keeping sentiment cautious. 📌 Key trigger today (6 PM IST): 🇺🇸 US Monthly Unemployment Data With US Treasury yields elevated and the #DollarIndex hovering just below the 100 mark, today's data could drive the next move across global equities, bonds, currencies and commodities. #Nifty #Markets #USJobs #DXY #Treasuries

Here's a tighter, X-friendly version of your post: CAS settlement is creating serious distortions. The last 2 expiry settlements raise a big concern. Around 3:15 PM, #Nifty 24450 CE was near 68 and 24450 PE around 27 (combined premium ~95). Yet after CAS settlement, the combined value jumped to 165+ as Spot was settled 150 pts higher in the final 15 minutes. This effectively turns expiry options into a 15-minute gamble and gives large players with the ability to influence the closing auction a clear advantage. Retail traders need to factor this new risk into their expiry strategies. #OptionsTrading #Nifty #CAS
