2. Role of the put/call ratio

Generally speaking, a smaller put/call ratio indicates that investors are trading or holding more call options, suggesting a bullish sentiment among investors. Conversely, a larger put/call ratio indicates that investors are trading or holding more put options, suggesting a bearish sentiment. In applications, it is advisable to analyze the put/call ratio alongside total volume or open interest data. The conclusions become more accurate when both total volume and open interest are increasing simultaneously.

Key Takeaways: The put/call ratio, which is used to gauge market sentiment, equals the volume or open interest of put options divided by the volume or open interest of call options. A smaller ratio indicates a bullish sentiment among investors, while a larger ratio suggests a bearish sentiment. When combined with increasing volume/open interest, the conclusions drawn are more valuable. Users can switch to view current and historical curves and long-press to access specific date data to analyze changes in market sentiment.
