Nifty today @ 6003.10

Update on Nifty short atm call 6050/Feb @ 102.00 and Nifty long itm put 6100/Mar @ 138.90:

Short call 6050/Feb sold on Monday with a good price @ 102.00
Actual today @ 51.05

Action token today:

Hedged the position before market closing with short put 5950/Feb @ 53.40 = Short strangle delta neutral

------------------------

Long itm put 6100/Mar bought with a bad price on Monday @ 138.90
Actual today @ 165.10


Action token today:

Non.


Comment: Time decay played good on the short call Feb series, as there are only 13 days left to expiration. As there is a profit of 50% in the position, the short put was implemented to save those 50%. Position is now price delta neutral and action will be required according to market moves. Best would be a range from 5900 to 6100.

The itm long put has more time to option expiration and time decay is not so heavy as in the Feb series. Still there is a profit of 26.20 (If you wanted to hedge this profit you could have sold the 5600/Mar put at around 26.00)

------------------------

Under watch as Bapu mentioned this idea:

Tata Steel today @ 365.20

Tata Steel put 300/Feb long @ 0.40 with an IV @ 55.06
Actual @ 0.25 with an IV @ 52.52

Short 6050 call and long 6100 put. Please explain the logic as this is purely uni-directional position. If market goes up, one can loose on both the positions. Was it a bearish plan because of some analyses ?
 
@Singlap

First: Did you not have a bearish plan and why not? If not, what have been your analyzes that you not had one? As you asked and not posted any thing about your plans/analyzes at the moment, it is my right to ask back.

Second: Did you follow the thread in the last few days? I would say: Yes, as you are a regular poster in this thread and more or less only in this thread. If so, then you must/should have seen/recognized this: The discussion went in the direction of not calling any way of option trading only correct or not correct. Question: What is/can/would be wrong to trade two different kind of simple strategies at the same time in the same market in the same direction? Answer: Nothing. Just know what you do. Even Sir Smart Trade and others trade some times at the same time two different strategies in the same market in the same direction. We can do this in different ways as there is again no only correct or only incorrect in trading. :)

Let me get a bit more clear: Instead to invest in three/six/nine and so on lots in one trade, I/you/who ever can implement/trade three/or what ever lots into the market with two/three different strategies even at the same time. Directional or non directional or with one derivative or with two derivative, no problem.

I/we/you even can/do/could start with three/six/nine and so on lots and then split it up into different strategies after the first profit. No problem. Again: Just know what you do and specially what you want. No rule for this, just knowledge. You can build up whole portfolios with this kind of trading by even using different series from different months. No limit to this. In option trading the universe is endless.

By the way: Stupid question from my side: Did you ever hear/think about this: I/you/we can play on each trade/strategy we implement a separate stop loss strategy. # Your risk appetite, your knowledge about options/futures and options strategies, your actual/current market knowledge/common sense, your ability to execute trades and follow your trading ideas in details and your understanding of money management are your decision makers. There is not much different to decide stop loss on two/or what ever lots in one trade or on one lot/or what ever in each strategy played. As simple as that. You define the rules by your self.

Finally: Your question has some authorization to a certain point, but there is a bit more behind this specific point. I guess your absolute most interest was to hear about some kind of special bearish plan from my side. What about when I tell you: There is non such thing. Answer to that question is given in the above section of the post #

Nifty @ 5993.00. I hedge now as in my opinion market has seen the deep for today:

Weekend hedges: Sold again a put to protect the short call over the weekend plus a protection for the long Mar put.

So sold 5900/Feb put @ 36.30 and sold 5650/Mar put at 27.00

- Now again a short strangle with the Feb series as short the 6050/Feb call and short the 5900/Feb put. Profit just today 14.85 with this position. Whole trade now 64 in plus. Over the weekend time decay.

- The long 6100/Mar put is now hedged with the short 5650/Mar put. Profit here 17 and over weekend time decay should play for me.

Total profit on those trades: 91 (Who is right and who is wrong :))

------------------------------

Tata Steel @ 361.15

Tata Steel put 300/Feb long @ 0.3 and IV @ 52.58

Trading log closed at 14:00. Now weekend and Nifty moves up after the double bottom.

Had to open the trading log again as Nifty jumps up heavy.

Bought back sold 5900/Feb put @24 with a profit of 12.30

Bought back sold 6050/Feb call @65.00

Net profit on this shorts over the week still stays with 64.15 (102 - 65 + 12.30 + 14.85 = 64.15) But this trade is now definitely closed.

--------------------------------

Comments: Nifty made this quick heave up move to 6050. There is a small gap between 6012 and 6017. Could be closed coming week/Monday.

The long MAR 6100 put has now a loss of 12 and the short MAR 5650 put has a profit of 7. This makes a total loss of 5 in this position for this week.

After this quick heavy up move, the whole trading result for this week looks a bit different, as there is now a total final profit left of 59 (64 - 5 = 59) and no more 91. That's trading the way it is. Most important: In the two little positions (left one for the moment and will make new decisions on Monday), there is no loss overall which do/could/would make us feel bad over the weekend. Very important.

So if I not would have acted, the result would look very different and profit would be much lower. Profit on the naked short FEB call would be 33 minus the loss from the long MAR put of 12 = 21. But now the profit is 280% higher because of some action during the week.

-------------------------------

Our watch list:

Tata Steel actual @ 370.95

Tata Steel put 300/Feb long actual @ 0.15 with an IV @ 54.42

-----------------------------

As a general information: I will do this like I do now only for one week and that should be enough time to give an idea about what can be done with pure option trading. There are many other ways of trading/hedging, but let me stay with pure option trading. Enjoy your live, wife and your weekend. (By the way: Did you know that singles live on the same stress level like married once. So think about it)

Sorry to post here .
But plz can ANYONE give me link where i can download data directly in excel .FOR FOLLOWING

Daily Volatility for currency ,

http://www.nse-india.com/products/co...omepage_cd.htm

Daily volatility For Cash

http://www.nseindia.com/products/con...ly_reports.htm

Daily Volatility For Future

http://www.nseindia.com/products/con...rchieve_fo.htm

How to fetch them directly in excel .Plz give link or excel sheet with automation where with data refresh we get it for that day .
This is a Excel function that I had written in my OAT Tool to fetch the FOVOLT file from NSEindia.com site.

See if you are able to understand

This will download the file for example the 14-FEB-2014 FOVOLT data

http://www.nseindia.com/archives/nsccl/volt/FOVOLT_14022014.csv to the sheet FOVOLT in my OAT tool.

If you have a .CSV file you can apply the same logic to download any .CSV from anywhere in the net to any excel sheet

Code:
'****************************************************************************
