yes thats true, but how can one adjust/manage a naked short gone wrong?
(asking on a learning note)
Let's first see your profit/loss potential of your options position...

You have created a very highly risky position beyond 5150 at expiry on the upside.
Now let's look at your shorting spree... Your average short of 5000CE at 44.39 shows that it was done when Nifty Futures(NF) was near 4800... so what was your stop-loss in mind for this position? Or when did you think of legging in, if required?
You shorted 5100CE again at 45.70 avg. when NF was around 4900. Why?
You were already in deep mess shorting 5000 CE as nifty was traveling fast. Then why again going for short? It shows that you have no back up plan. You are blindly shorting CEs...
Yesterday when NF was at around 5020, you panicked & created more position in next month contracts... Why?
My suggestion would be to
get out of 5200 CE at once if nifty goes below 5000 and book some profit (as your position will be badly hurt above 5150)...
Wait for NF to drift towards 4940 to book profit in 5100 CE as well as cut positions in 5000CE of both sides symmetrically... Below 4920, book loss in your 5000CE long and wait for time decay to eat all the premium in 5000CE short with adequate stop-loss (or combining it with some other option strategy)... I hope you will get out of this deep mess this time & please do proper home work before taking naked short positions in options next time...
