What are FIIs and DIIs?

FIIs (foreign institutional investors, now called FPIs) are overseas funds investing in Indian shares. DIIs (domestic institutional investors) are Indian mutual funds, insurance companies, banks and pension funds.

What does FII net buying mean?

FIIs bought more shares than they sold that day, in rupees. Net selling means they sold more than they bought.

Where does this data come from?

NSE's daily provisional figures for the cash market, across NSE and BSE. NSE publishes them after the close; final figures can differ slightly.

Do FII flows decide where Nifty goes?

Not on their own. Large FII buying or selling often lines up with the market's direction, but DIIs frequently take the other side, as you can see on many days here.

What does 'FII futures long' mean?

From NSE's participant-wise open interest: of all the index futures FIIs hold, the share that are long (bought) rather than short (sold). Below 50% means FIIs hold more short positions than long ones. Traders watch it as a sign of FII positioning.
