Although open interest is a measure utilized in the options markets, it could be used to forecast Illumina's spot prices because the number of available contracts in the market changes daily, and new contracts can be created or liquidated at will. Since open interest in Illumina's options reflects these daily shifts, investors could use the patterns of these changes to develop long and short-term trading strategies for Illumina stock based on available contracts left at the end of a trading day.
Please note that to derive more accurate forecasting about market movement from the current Illumina's open interest, investors have to compare it to Illumina's spot prices. As Ford's stock price increases, high open interest indicates that money is entering the market, and the market is strongly bullish.
