Two year back thread on MFI, someone liked this so came up …

A short thread on #MFI

The basics here :

Technical analysis says two things :
1. Momentum precedes price
2. Volumes precedes price

So, if an indicator includes momentum and volume analysis, it will be a leading indicator to some extent. This is the crux why I am so much confident on MFI

The indicator can be used for swing as well as day-trading. I use a period of 10 as I have seen that being our responsive to our markets here

Trendlines drawn on MFI or patterns might not be visible on price, normal trendline trading rules apply.

Divergences work and so does patterns

One can use MFI as a stand alone tool or as a supporting tool with other indicators

My indicator on divergences used codes was not allowed by tradingview ( future looking in a protected code). Tradingview has a good built-in divergence indicator which I have simply modified by plugging in MFI in place of RSI.

Since 99% of my own trades are in options, the calls I give are also on options. I am of the firm belief, that a basic knowledge of option greeks is necessary for any trader aspiring to trade options. For this, there are numerous books and even more resources on the net/youtube

However, a trader trying to learn Greeks face the problem of information overload. The problems are mainly 3
1. Either the text is too mathematical
2. Or the explanation is too simple just skimming the surface
3. In some cases, outright wrong info ( specially on youtube)

I have decided to make a video on options greeks in which I will try to explain simply ( without the maths 😀) but will go a bit more in-depth so that the info is usable by traders doing actual trades

Spent the major part of today designing the ppt ( 40 slides), hope to upload the video in the next few days. I will also provide the names of other resources which I have referred in making the video so that viewers can refer those texts for a more comprehensive understanding.

The video will be from the view of a trader/practitioner and not just a theoretical discussion.

I sincerely hope starters will be benefitted from my effort 🙏

This is actually an interesting question and a correct observation. Many people before you also have made this observation, so I am going to explain this the best I can

I am trading since badla days. There being long meant you had to pay badla / interest and being short meant you received badla. Similar to an options buyer having theta burn and an options seller being theta positive. So the bias among pros were being short bit

Now, as of now I am an options buyer. All my strategies are geared towards options buying, so I have a theta burn continuosly. I do use strategies to cover that a bit, but still the burn is there

Now, let's consider how an options buyer makes money. His enemy is theta, vega can be friend or enemy ( coming to this in next tweet) , Delta is whether his view is right or wrong

Now say I am bullish on BNF and I buy calls and I am directionally correct . As BNF goes up, generally IV will decrease. This leads to a double whammy.
1. Vega hurts me
2. Theta decay increases.
So, the position does give money, but slowly

Along with the levels, there is Trend Ratio.
Near 1 or below is bearish, near 2 or above is bullish
( this as per last day's closing).
If Trend Ratio is bullish, expect support at Balance or breakout above Upper level will mean rally will continue.

If Trend Ratio is bearish, look for break or Balance or lower levels .

On a bullish Trend Ratio if Balance breaks, expect all longs to be trapped . Can short with stop above upper breakout figure. And vice versa

Normally the Trend Ratios of both indices are in sync, a little bit of difference. But here BNF is bullish while Nifty is bearish. So, if playing bullish tomorrow concentrate on BNF, If playing bearish, concentrate on Nifty

Major Rule :
1. DO NOT play bearish is market above Balance
2. DO NOT play bullish is market below Balance

The Balance basically tells you which side is a bit trapped

As long as the market stays within the upper and lower levels, option sellers ( whether they have sold on friday or will sell tomorrow) are at an advantageous position and make money. Whichever side this level is broken, that side sellers will be trapped

Two year back thread on MFI, someone liked this so came up in notifications . Rather than running around 100s of indicators, I have made this my go to indicator under any circumstances and have been using this for years
