OI Analysis:
The Open Interest (OI) data indicates a buildup in positions at higher strike prices, especially around 58,000, suggesting that traders are expecting the index to test these levels. The bullish buildup in OI, combined with positive technical indicators, points to a continuation of the upward trend, albeit with potential volatility near the resistance levels.
