• When to sell
• How to do Adjustments
• Exit Criteria

Beautiful explanation on positional option selling by @Mitesh_Engr
Sir on how to sell low premium strangles yourself without paying anyone. This is a free mini course in itself.

1st Live example of managing a strangle by Mitesh Sir. @Mitesh_Engr

• Sold Strangles 20% cap used
• Added 20% cap more when in profit
• Booked profitable leg and rolled up
• Kept rolling up profitable leg
• Booked loss in calls
• Sold only puts

2nd example by @Mitesh_Engr Sir on converting a directional trade into strangles. Option Sellers can use this for consistent profit.

• Identified a reversal and sold puts

• Puts decayed a lot

• When achieved 2% profit through puts then sold calls

What to do when premiums are low? By @Mitesh_Engr

• Avoid Strangle Selling
• Wait patiently for rejection candle
• Bet heavy with a small stop loss
• Great Risk/Reward

I saw him do this live on one expiry I distinctly remember, he made good profit.

Ideal position sizing to play strangles aggressively by @Mitesh_Engr

Observe the quantity he is selling on a 20 lakh account,15 lots on 20 lakhs.

• Sold straddles aggressively
• Exited with 1% profit in a day
• Sold bullish strangles to extract more

What @_GauravVashisth looks for before selling strangles.

• Check 1 hour charts
• If in consolidation sells strangles
• If there's a breakout of a level sells directionally



According to @_GauravVashisth strangles shouldn't be sold when

• Market closes at day high/low
• Probability of a big move is higher
• Probability of a severe gap up/gap down is higher

You can check my thread out on @_GauravVashisth logics here 👇

This is a very nice thread by @Pathik_Trader Sir where he says Strangles are better than Straddles. Also covers:

• Ideal Position Sizing
• How to diversify
• How to not be affected by a black swan

How @Pathik_Trader Sir keeps a stop loss in strangles?

• Premium recieved + 10% is SL.
• No need of adjustments

Multiple Examples of how @Pathik_Trader managed his strangles in multiple stocks.

• Sold Naked Puts
• When market reversed sold calls
• Rolled down calls to extract more
• Markets again reversed
• Shifted calls further otm
• Rolled up Puts

PER ORDER Vs PER LOT brokerage

Which one is better?

Read the thread to know why one is clearly better than the other.

A THREAD ...
Too many people are getting scammed into per lot broking. There are offers anywhere between 6 rs per lot to 25 rs per lot. It's financial suicide to opt for this kind of broker compared to the per order ones.

Let's have a look at why PER ORDER is OBVIOUSLY the better choice.
1. How many lots do you sell at a time?

The majority of the people must be at least selling 2-3 lots in one go. (Assumption)

Per lot brokerage (10 rs per lot) you'll be charged 30 rs buy-side and 30 rs sell-side (as we sold 3 lots), overall 60 rs plus other charges.

A THREAD on . . . .

How @ITRADE191 selects strikes to trade in and how he follows risk management.

Short thread explained via pictures with the help of @niki_poojary.
1. At the start of the week

i.e. on Friday and Monday, DJ Sir prefers to sell OTM options of 50 rs premium in Nifty.

- ATM options won't decay a lot at the beginning
- With this premium reward is good
- Since these strikes are 4-5 strikes away they are relatively safer
2. On Tue/Wed/Fri

He prefers to trade in ATM or near OTM options.

- ATM options have the highest theta decay
- Since there are only 2-3 days to expiry options sellers by default have a higher probability of winning
- Huge reward if market stays flat

Decoded his way of analysis/logics for everyone to easily understand.

Have covered:
1. Analysis of volatility, how to foresee/signs.
2. Workbook
3. When to sell options
4. Diff category of days
5. How movement of option prices tell us what will happen
1. Keeps following volatility super closely.

Makes 7-8 different strategies to give him a sense of what's going on.

Whichever gives highest profit he trades in.

2. Theta falls when market moves.
Falls where market is headed towards not on our original position.
