Hello,
although you have replied, I still couldn't find the answer to my query.
exactly the point but I interpret a bit differently. why not consider spot and get the precise levels when the futures contract just wanders in and around the spot .
I understand you refer to NF. fine no issues.
But to put it in simple terms, say NS has no gap but NF does for that particular session would you still pay importance to the gap in NF? and vice versa.
Hi,
NS is a culmination of multiple individual stocks OK! and all of them have different weight-age on NS, now when a number of those Nifty stocks open with or with out a gap (up or down) remember the weight-age factor, NS will have to take into account all the stocks under it's fold and then open with or with out a gap even though NF may open with or with out a gap
NF is a boy living on borrowed time (every last Thursday of the month) and Nifty Spot a responsible father. Now we have to catch the son not the father, we know father will always be there, it is the son whom we have to control (Our Finance) so the gap in NF is important
There are gaps in NS but not that much as NF gives us. This current rally has created 7 gaps in NF and 5 in NS. Gap in Spot gives confirmation regarding the trend (up / down) and NS levels coinciding with NF is just one more confirmation that's all
As regarding the levels, who control your finance NS or NF, NF trading in premium or discount is the actual the cream, skimmed by traders who have the least cost to trade NF, that's why few people make money and rest just enjoys the trading and end up loosing in the end, because they are always confused between the two.
If you ask my opinion I'll take into account the levels of that index / stock derivative that I trade because the life span of that derivative is minimum 1 month to max 3 months but the index / stock will continue for ever, that's why the last day close price of the stock / index derivative is not taken into consideration but its the next series same day close price.
Even the same derivative in two different series will trades with different parameters, and they hardly coincide with their parent.
All Derivatives live a short life and traders will make the most from that life in the given time span as they don't have time to waste.
I hope I have been able to help you.
Bye
