Bear Call SpreadAs i discussed in my last post if Nifty reaches to my Reasistance zone I will create an Option Strategy so i did created "Bear Call Strategy" by selling a Call of 15700 and against that Anchor unit bought an offset uinit of call 15950 for perfet spread i want to buy 16000 CE but it was not liquid at that time and was available only for Intraday you can't convert it to Holdings.

VIXY Bearish inclined Naked Calls 17 June Expiry Whats The Plan/Trade/Thought For some reason the VXX options contracts seems to require a lot of Margin/BP to develop a decent premium. As such I decided to look at other VIX related ETFs and found VIXY well priced and from my research has a closer correlation with the VIX Over the past year of trading options i’ve come to realised that I’m really trading volatility in the different sectors. This trade is my hedge trade and while I believe we are in a bearish situation now, I believe we will be ranging at least for the time being. Hence I am somewhat not directional with VIXY Risk Mitigation I have two S&R points for this trade with the key S&R 1 at 26.64. This will be my guard rails and reaction points for risk mitigation I Feel I feel comfortable on this trade, I’m somewhat still feeling the effects of last month. But I cannot let that influence me Imagine Yourself Taking The Other Side This is a possibility given that I am not directional but I could only mark one S&R point Look For New Information By selling Calls, I am accepting that there won’t be a steep reversal How Do I Feel Now Clear on why I have taken this trade Trade Specs Sold 255 Calls @ 0.27 - Strike 27 46.26% to Strike BP Used 85K Max Gain $6630

CWH Bearish inclined naked calls 17 June expiry Whats The Plan/Trade/Thought CWH is part of the Recreational Vehicles sector, that came out of my shortlist of companies with medium level volatility in the past month Across the sector there is a bearish alignment which is important I do expect some volatility with an upwards movement as price across the markets might stabilise from the past 5 weeks of back to back drops Risk Mitigation Very clear S&R lines. If price breaks S&R 1, I will have to close the trade. I Feel I feel confident about this trade as I will be using my S&R lines as a risk mitigator. Imagine Yourself Taking The Other Side With the bearish price action from the past 5 weeks, selling puts would be too risky and almost as if you are trying to guess the bottom Look For New Information Dividends is happening on the 13 June. But I have not seen this event result in volatility How Do I Feel Now Good, I’m clear Trade Specs Sold 236 Calls @ 0.25 - Strike 34 23.6% to Strike BP Used 66.9K Max Gain $5,900

BTCUSD / COINBASE Correlation I have been watching how the Coin base equity stock is trading compared to Bitcoin . We are able to spot very good trading opportunities, such as the bear trap shown above. As of now, $COIN closed at 75.29 on Friday afternoon, which is above last weeks highs. Most people will try to go long because they consider that a breakout. On the other hand, on Friday BTCUSDT was near the lows of last weeks. Now, its at near highs. I have already published another idea explaining why COIN is a sell. Will be following my stop loss and take profit levels. I'll be quick to switch sides if i see the right price action.

NVDA Possible Short entry targeting 195 before earning!So many indicators at sell signals - bearish daily candles - bearish RSI and guess what everything looks bearish before earning report which is expected to beat expectation (est. 1.3 eps) . The idea: This is good spot for short entry targeting 195-188-175-165-155 with stops at recent gaps at 258-231 . The expected scenario is to go down to new low for 2022 then strong bounce to 250-280-320. BUT on other side its possible for strong bounce at any moment with long green candle which will award Call options so Strangle here up to earning report will be much appreciated.

A Rule for OPTION Call Writing Making a good strategy help to be consistent in OPTION Writing Here we will look some key point for Option Writing and the Rules . 1. Market runs in FEAR and GREED ,Make the most out of it for your trading A stock which try to move up is very rare than most of the stocks try to fall badly This is due to buyer and selling greed and Fear, When fear plays sell happens more than Buy 2. Make advantage of Falling Market or Sideways Market Theta (Time) decay will help option trader to be write even if you take a wrong position 3. Identify a level beyond which the price will not move above or sideways move also ok 4. Fix the strike price which is reasonably above from current market price Example : if a Current Market price is 1000 prefer Call side 1200 ,1300,1400 ,1500 strikes for CALL Short selling 5. Always Sell the Call on OTM (Out of the Money Range only) 6. Check the Volume and OI both must be having highest or better highest numbers ,this would help to avoid a situation where you have no buyers to cover you short CALL later 7. Check the BID and OFFER Price ,Place the Call Sell order by the OFFER Price or BID Price 8. Always choose the EXPIRY contracts which will have 40days time to get more premium price of the particular contracts. if a expiry occurs in 10days avoid this month contract ,go for next month contract #6 th point is due to this only ,volume matters for the trade, no volume then no trades 9. Always aim to short the CALL on the higher price 10. Do not average the CALL price often ,Set a average limit as 25% price move from the entry price if this is helpful Like, Comment and feedback your view

JWN Bullish inclined Naked Calls 20 May Expiry (May Track 3)Whats The Plan/Trade/Thought I had filled my Macy’s trade first but as I was looking at the charts I realised that it was possible for me to create some sort of a hedge with JWN and M (one being Puts, the other Calls). JWN similar to Macy’s has strong S&R lines at 30, 26 and 24.19 As I believe we are in the ranging situation. I expect the price to drop or go up but be contained within the S&R lines at least for the short term I Feel I’m entering this reflection post and 2 days after filling this trade, Fed Powell announces the rate hikes and the price drops by 5.25%. Not surprising, but I didn’t expected this drop to happen so quickly. I figured this would happen closer to May. I’m still confident of this trade plan Imagine Yourself Taking The Other Side This is possible also as it is aligned with the range movement I expect and there is an S&R line at 30.20 Imagine Yourself As A Neutral Observer This trade as a hedge with the Macy’s trade makes good sense and the strong S&R lines below at 26 and 24.19 gives good resistance Look For New Information Before trade entry Nordstrom generally has positive news with it rising 27% How Do I Feel Now I feel ok, with the current situation but will have to monitor how the first S&R line holds Trade Specs Sold 340 Puts @ 0.22 - Strike 22.5 % to Strike 29% ATR 22% BP used 75k Max Gain: 7534.4

M Bearish inclined naked calls 13 May expiry (May Track 2)Whats The Plan/Trade/Thought The Departmental Store sector was not one of my original shortlist. But I also do think my current method of shortlisting from the median of the monthly performance (both negative and positive), might not be the best. Even if the price performance meets my expectations on what I should be trading in a volatile ranging market. Earning season did not help as part of my strategy is to stay away from earnings which are unpredictable With nothing to show for my May shortlist. I was exploring my past trades and found that the Departmental Store sector had good prices and WAS close to how I wanted the price movement to be (within a range). Macy’s had strong S&R lines at 28.54 and 22.97 and had lower high points I sold calls on this as I expect it to range between the S&R points with a bearish inclination I Feel I felt good about this trade, confident as it met my expectations and what I was looking for. Imagine Yourself Taking The Other Side With the lower highs I would be worried. Also i expect some bearish movement from the Fed announcements early May We do know that while the overall consumer sentiment has been bearish, consumer spending is up and rising. This could drive some upside Imagine Yourself As A Neutral Observer Given that we feel that it is a Ranging market with Strong S&R lines. I think both could be right but with interest rate increases the probabilities are more bearish Look For New Information No new information that I could find on Macy’s How Do I Feel Now Post entering the trade, I feel good especially since prices have drop with Fed Powell’s announcement on the half-point hike. I was expecting this price drop to happen in May and not this week as the half-point hike is not a surprise and has been reported before Trade Specs Sold 290 Calls @0.26 - Strike 31 % to Strike is 15% ATR is 1% BP used 75k Max Gain: 7540

AAL Bullish inclined naked puts 20 May expiry (May Track 1)Whats The Plan/Trade/Thought My original intention was to leverage the volatility from the rate increases to enter VXX. However the BP (Buying Power) requirements were pretty high. Making IT less attractive in risk and reward The airlines sector are seeing signs or recovery with surges over pre-pandemic level in March. United Airlines (21 April) have forecasted a profit this year. Looking at the Airline stocks with similar prices movements. I decided to sell puts with AAL as I expected traders to jump into this sector with obvious recovery elements. Especially since Tech companies have been victim number 1 with the rising interest rates. I also saw markets rising after Powell’s address and I figured the volatility was all done. Boy was I wrong haha I Feel I’m entering this post entering the trade. Hence my views now are slightly impacted with what has transpired on Thursday and Friday. I feel I have made the right decision based on the information I had. However Given that my overall stance was that it was a bearish sideways market. 2/3 of my trades should not be bullish. I am not good at predicting the market, so I must be aware of the probabilities across all my trades and not just each individual trade In my reflection, how I could have also structured this is, riskier trades should be tied to closer expiry dates Imagine Yourself Taking The Other Side Right now post entry, post 5,6 May blood bath. It must feel pretty sweet Imagine Yourself As A Neutral Observer In all states (Bullish, Bearish and Neutral). We all agree that the market is ranging and is highly volatile. As such the trade currently is not moving entirely unexpectedly. I think was was unexpected was the Bullish market wide move, followed by two red days Look For New Information Current bearish price action is a market wide drop. There could be recovery or it could continue dropping. We have some allowance, but it’s getting tighter How Do I Feel Now A little worried about Monday, but I know this trade individually is made of sound decision elements. However as part of an overall monthly trade structure, this new trade weakens it Trade Specs Sold 350 Puts @ 0.13 - Strike 15.5 % to Strike is 17.5% ATR IS 5% BP used 54k Max Gain: 4322.5

EUR/USD 20 year low what happens with Peace?EUR/USD has taken the brunt of the USD strength since the Ukraine War and Russian sanctions soured the economic outlook of the Eurozone. What happens with peace? Well obviously we rally but the argument is that with the ECB acting as well we will not just bounce but fly back above EUR/USD 1.10. Now timing this potential outcome is the issue and we could rally organically from 20 year lows if the USD weakens as well. FX Options are a solution and on our easyMarkets Options are made accesible for everyone. 3 month EUR/USD is currently 240 pips so we have a long time for peace with a maximum loss of 240pips.
