What a SENSEX option download contains

Option chain, 1-minute, from NOV 2023: every strike that traded, calls and puts, each listed expiry in its own file per day, e.g. SENSEX_OPT_1min_<day>_exp<expiry>.parquet.

Futures and the index on the same clock in the Complete packs: SENSEX futures cover NOV 2023 → NOV 2026.

1-second option bars from MAY 2024, for entries and stops a minute bar cannot judge. See the SENSEX 1-second dataset.

df = df.rename(columns={"timestamp": "datetime", "strike": "strike_price",
                        "option_type": "right", "expiry": "expiry_date",
                        "oi": "open_interest"})
if "right" in df:
    df["right"] = df["right"].replace({"CE": "Call", "PE": "Put"})
print(opt["expiry_date"].unique(), opt["strike_price"].nunique())
