You only lose what you cling to.
may be try this after market hours. You can always revert to original settings. :thumb:

Guys, how does short covering exactly work in Indian markets?
AFAIK, shorting equity inter-day is not allowed in India, but you can short futures. So, if a bounce can be attributed to short covering, it should be the bounce in derivatives, not the spot. Then, how can we attribute a bounce in spot to short covering?:confused:

Saying that spot is following futures is counter-intuitive, because it should be the other way round.

arbitrage bhi bahot hota hai market me...

or stocks me bhi intraday shorting hoti hai bhai....stbt bhi hota hai....
That is the question, how does inter-day arbitrage and STBT happen when it is specifically not allowed?

I can understand arbitrage set-up when spot is long and future is short, but how does the other way work? And if you look at Spot-Future basis spread, it is more when futures are in discount and low when futures are in premium, meaning arbitragers are not able to exploit the spread when they need to short spot.

Yes you are absolutely right .Many traders became millionaire during Badla times.

Once you have money , it seems that whatever you say has weight in gold.The same things said by unsuccessful people falls on deaf ears.:D
