An F&O ban is triggered when the combined Open Interest (OI) for a stock’s Futures and Options reaches 95% of the Market Wide Position Limit (MWPL) set by the exchange.
MWPL Tracker: ScanX includes an MWPL tracker that lets you monitor:
🔹Which stocks are currently under ban
🔹Which stocks are close to entering the ban list
🔹Which stocks may soon exit the ban list
This keeps you informed about instruments trading near their MWPL limits, helping you plan your F&O trades more carefully and avoid unexpected restrictions.
