This is a regulatory measure to prevent excessive speculation. The ban is lifted only when the open interest falls below 80% of the MWPL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Should Investors Do?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Existing Investors:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If invested with a long-term view, consider holding your position.

However, the regulatory overhang related to market coupling remains a concern. Investors should continue monitoring developments, trade with discipline, and avoid overexposure. Long-term investors can stay invested, while new buyers should wait for more clarity and technical confirmation before entering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"0\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eqwires.com\/tutorials\/who-is-the-best-sebi-registered-investment-advisor-in-i\">Eqwires Research Analyst<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eqwires.com\/\">Top-notch SEBI registered research analyst<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\"><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eqwires.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Best SEBI registered Intraday tips provider <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\"><a href=\"mailto:info@eqwires.com\"><strong>info@eqwires.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-red-color has-text-color\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/eqwires\">Telegram&nbsp;<\/a>|&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/eqwires\/\">Facebook&nbsp;<\/a>|&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/Eqwires\">Instagram<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-red-color has-text-color\"><strong>Call: +91 9624421555 \/&nbsp;<em>+91 9624461555<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eqwires.com\/\">www.eqwires.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shares of Indian Energy Exchange (IEX) surged nearly 13% to \u20b9149.45, recovering sharply after experiencing a record single-day fall.
