      3. Options - Weekly and Monthly 

Let's understand all three formats.

1. Continuous Futures:-

We are using _I (Under Score Eye) for continuous contract futures. 

E.g:-  Three Months of Contract as below.

First Month Contract=  _I     
NIFTY = NIFTY_I          BANKNIFTY = BANKNIFTY_I         TCS = TCS_I      RELIANCE = RELIANCE_I    SBIN = SBIN_I

Second Month Contract=  _II       
NIFTY = NIFTY_II         BANKNIFTY = BANKNIFTY_II        TCS = TCS_II     RELIANCE = RELIANCE_II    SBIN = SBIN_II

Third Month Contract = _III     
NIFTY = NIFTY_I          BANKNIFTY = BANKNIFTY_III         TCS = TCS_III    RELIANCE = RELIANCE_III    SBIN = SBIN_III
