Why have you bought Nifty 5200 Call Nov. series ? Who has suggested you to buy this. You need to answer this.
Always people take a decision then they ask for the sol. why not the otherway round or you anlalyze it so as to handle your call.
Have you hedged it. And if not why ?
================================
Ghosh Sir : ok let this query be the other way round this time If i have the view that the Nifty will go up and as stated earlier ,will buy the next months call after 20th of the month . What should i do in options to hedge the : Nov 5200 Call now . ?
Since u had earlier told to write off 5000 Call 1 lot & 5000 put 1 lot , so i understand that it is a hedged write position with a SL attached .
This is for learning purpose .
Dear Abigbull,
Firstly I will never prefer to buy OTM calls and keep it open for next day unless I am sure of a good gap up and/or continuous rise next day. Reason being calls/puts premium dies if one keeps position open for long with market moving sideways.
If at all I do then, I will buy call/put of the same strike price .i.e. I will buy a near money straddle when I expect market to move either way (big gap up or gap down) like budget day or election result day or some fiscal policy day or else when big move either way is expected.
Will buy calls or puts as per strategy posted in the 1st post of this thread and if at all I would like to keep it then, I will hedge suitably as per strategy posted in the 1st post of this thread.
Well if at all some one buys a OTM call then, buy a put of the same OTM strike price to hedge the positon, provided above conditions holds good. Yes, with suitable SL.
I hope this helps.
Regards
