Does anyone has experience here selling deep OTM options - only for purpose of getting 2 to 3% gains for idle money - would be interested in experience around liquidity/risk management aspects for such trades

Talking about deep OTM - nifty @ 7550 - Sell 7900 CE Options - Like yesterday 7900 CE was at 7-8 Rs range -- Assuming it will expire worthless - one can sell 7900 CE at say Rs.8 and keep till expiry - Rs. 600 on investment of Rs. 36-37K with theoritical minimal risk

Try box spread, might need to manage entries to get a good price.

ST Da,
Would consider the highlighted bars as a pivot for upgrading VPs if this were the only pivot?
Would you move an SL (not today, but in general) below this pivot?

Only risk is slippage when trying to execute individual box trades

I will consider it as a pivot as per the defination I follow but will not use it for keeping stoploss as it is in the belly of a large green bar.
