Worth knowing
nothing the data supports either way
NHPC sits in Public sector, Central PSUs, Commodities — worth checking whether the whole group is moving together or whether this name is doing it alone.
What would change this read: a close back above 78, its 200-day average.

What the scans say today
5 of 47 matched on 10 Sep
NHPC matches 5 of the 47 scans today, across 4 different kinds of evidence. Three or more independent families agreeing is uncommon — it is the same test the shortlist on every page uses.
NHPC trades at 18× trailing earnings, below its median of 23× over this window — 22% less expensive than usual. The band runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile, so single-day spikes do not set the edges.
This window is short by the standards of valuation history — it begins where four quarters of filed earnings first exist. A stock can look cheap against two years and expensive against ten.
Other filing filings were typically +0.01pt vs the market over the next 5 sessions (n=17,202) · AGM / EGM filings were typically +0.17pt vs the market over the next 5 sessions (n=8,423) · Management filings were typically +0.06pt vs the market over the next 5 sessions (n=2,634)

How to read this
Open interest is contracts still open, so a rise means new positions and a fall means positions closing. Combined with price direction that gives the state on the left. The walls are the strikes carrying the most open interest near expiry — levels other people are watching, not levels the price is obliged to respect. A future below spot means sellers are paying to be short.
