How I managed my today’s option selling trade inspite of spike on the call side

Overnight position :
I had carried overnight 23000 PE ( sell at 155) & 24200 CE (sell at 135)

In the morning I booked profit in 23000 PE and shifted to 23200 at 120

(1) ImageImage
24000 was a resistance for BNF and above that good spike was expected. So I kept SL in 24200 CE at 200 (as per system)

The SL in 24200 got hit at 200 around 10:30 am and I shifted to next resistance level 25000 CE at 63

Open now(Sell) :
23200 PE at 120
25000 CE at 63

(2) Image
Calls were rising rapidly so I sold additional 23200 PE and also bought 25000 CE (10th sept expiry at 200)

The 25000 CE bought in next week was managing the deltas and MTM.

(3) Image
Market pullbacked so Calls cooled of a bit and I booked profit in 25000 CE (10th sept expiry ) at 267

And put a buy stop in 25500 CE(3rd sept expiry at 65)

(4) Image
Market kept on rising and I kept rolling up my puts and also sold additional puts below 24K as 24 K was a strong support

(5) Image
So inspite of today being a trending day ended up in decent profit of around 1 L by active trade management and cutting losses quickly.

Learnings :
1) Don’t let options become ITM
2) Trending days can be managed only by buying so also know your max loss.

Thread : Days to Remember🧵

1) I saw few tweets saying that this is the most difficult market ever.

As a trader, we have signed up for these risks & All we can do is be prepared & manage them

Lets have a look at days when markets action was crazier than current times !
2) 18th may 2009

Markets opened at 9:55 AM as this was the market opening time at that time
Nifty immediately hit an 20 % upper circuit at 10.01 am and the markets froze.
So markets were open only for 6 minutes.

3) 24th Aug 2015 (Vega Risk)

On 24th August 2015, the Indian markets declined close to 5.92%.

Nifty around 490 points but something unusual happened on that day.

Far otm Call options shot up inspite of such a huge fall😲

Vix shot up 64%.

Thread : From +5% to -1% for April.. Mistakes made & lessons learnt🧵

1) I was up 5% on capital for April till 2nd week but in last week went from +5% to -1%

So what went wrong, what mistakes I did & the lesson learnt !

#trading
2) I was having a great month & that made me more complacement as I made around 24% returns in last 4 months

As Paul Tudor Jone says

“My biggest losses have always come after I have had a great period & I started to think that I knew something”
3) So what went wrong ?

Tuesday :
BNF crossed 37000 & I sold 36500 put as per my system

But BNF reversed in last 30 mins & my otm stop (36000) got triggered.

I exited hedge as I thought this is just a pullback but BnF kept tanking & lost around 2% on capital on Tue

Thread: What can we traders learn from Sachin

1) @sachin_rt is undoubtedly one of the greatest batsmen of all time & has played several amazing knocks. But one that stands out is his 241* at Sydney. He did not play a single cover drive in the entire innings

#SachinTendulkar
2) Look at his stance on the crease. Look at the balance. Perfect. Simply elegant. Looks so pleasing to the eye.

Even @bhogleharsha once said, “When Sachin hits a cover drive, the world seems all the more beautiful.”
3) But in the series against Australia. Sachin had been getting out by trying to drive the ball outside off.

He had scored just 88 runs in the previous three matches and had registered 2 ducks as well. So he decided that he needs to change something to score more runs

How to become more productive & achieve results🧵

1) An important concept that I learnt last year and which has helped me immensely is “Non Zero Day”

There should be no zero days.

What's a zero day?

A zero day is when you don't do a single thing towards your dream or goal
2) Didnt' do anything all day and it's 11:58 PM?

Write one sentence.
One pushup.
Read one page of that chapter.
Write one line of code.

One. Because one is non zero.
3) Turning your dreams into reality doesn’t happen magically.
It happens from a massive string of CONSISTENT NON ZEROS.

0.99^ 365 =0.03 but
1.01 ^ 365 = 37.8

Small improvements daily add to great results overtime

Thread : Trading Applications that I use on a daily basis🧵

1) After putting a detailed post on hardware & multi-monitor setup. Few asked for softwares I use for trading.

So I am listing softwares/apps which I find the most useful for trading & investing Image
2) Trading View or Kite app

I use trading view for intraday charts.

As I trade intraday, I use the 5 min time frame.

My chart is simple with 20 sma plotted on it along with CPR(central pivot range)

Price > 20 sma & CPR indicates bullish trend for intraday & vice-versa Image
3) Icharts

As I majorly trade option premiums(short volatility or theta decay strategies)

I keep a track of combined premium of strangle using @iChartsIndia

Combined premium should be trending down & below VWAP to create a strangle Image
