Nifty Option Strategy

Today I just unwound the stratgey mentioned earlier in my blog: Nifty Back in Action

The analysis was about resistance level of 2980 on the Nifty. The March 3000 calls were as cheap as Rs. 5 when the strategy was posted. I was holding March calls with strike 3000 and 3050.

Today after the market was looking like not holding up the 3000 level I liquidated my position. 3000 call at Rs. 45.9 and the 3050 call at Rs. 14.3. At the end of the trading session the 3000 call had gone down to 15 rs. and the 3050 call to 8 Rs. Luckily was able to sell the 3000 call at intraday high but missed out the 23 Rs. level on the 3050 call (I had placed the limit order at 25)

Nifty back in action !

Nifty has gained back the early losses made earlier in the beginning of the month. Opening strongly today morning with close to 3% gain it is inching closer to the resistance levels seen earlier this year.


The first resistance to be tested will be around 2980 and after breaking this level Nifty to pounce towards the next resistance level of 3100. With the global trend it seems that the Nifty will reach 3000 levels within the end of the week.

Something like the 3000 near month call (Mar) looks like an ideal trade with premiums around Rs. 4. Again expecting the market to move close to 200 pts more this week (4 days) seems too much to ask but it seems like a good bet to take given the risk is only 4 Rupees of premium.
