Thread: Free Options Trading Course for Beginners with small capital.

Reference: Option trading marathon series, part 1 from Mr. Subasish Pani ft. @PushkarRThakur

Collaborated with @AdityaTodmal

 1/ Trading journey of Mr. Pani

• He has an experience of 7 years.

• He has made a profit of Rs. 20 cr. over these years with a capital of Rs. 2 cr.

• However, it's not easy to make such profits.

• More difficult, is to retain those profits and build more on it.
2/ How he ventured to options selling

• He started with futures and option buying however after a certain point when his capital grew, he faced scalability issues and hence he resorted to options selling.
3/ Investing becomes imp once the capital grows:

• Since his trading profits have grown well, he has started investing (investing is always for LT).

• For folks who dnt have much info regarding investing can simply buy Nifty 50 stocks & keep rebalancing as Nifty 50 does.
4/ Covered calls strategy for the portfolio:

• Pledge the portfolio and receive margin ~80% which he would then use to sell OTM CEs of the stocks which are in his portfolio.

• This helps in generating fixed income from the portfolio.
5/ For folks who wish to learn trading, check this:

• Need to have a firm commitment.

• In terms of money and in terms of how much time you would give yourself in market.
6/ Start with a small capital:

• Lets say you start with Rs. 10k.

• Buy everyday one single stock exit with Rs. 300 loss and profit of Rs. 600 with position sizing.

• Do this exercise for 30 days.

• This is to understand the process.
7/ Stick to your set up

• Be disciplined

• Don't do system hopping

• Try to take atleast 100 trades to understand the nuances of the system, as develop discipline over the period.
8/ What is Call option (CE) & Put Option (PE)

• If your view is that market will go up, an option buyer will buy a CE and if the view is that market will go downside then an option buyer will buy a PE.

• Every option has a premium.
9/ Intervals in NF & BNF:

• Nifty option strikes has an interval of 50 points and Banknifty has 100 points.

• Check Option chain for more details:
- Nifty : https://t.co/5BrThceFd3
- Banknifty: https://t.co/HbPkJw310q
10/ When does an option buyer or a seller makes money?

• Buyer makes money if the market moves in his favor.

• Option sellers make money if the market remains sideways or moves in his favour.
11/ Basic set up for option sellers: Short Straddle

• Wherever the spot is sell both CE & PE of the same strike.

• Currently NF spot is at 17530, so to short a straddle one has to sell both 17550 CE & PE together.
12/ How to initiate a trade:

• Net premium collected is Rs. ~330

•Premium decay happens the most on Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday

• Trade this in intraday and avoid overnight risk while learning.

• Probability of this set up is 70%

• The R/R should be 1:2
13/ When to exit:

• Capital required for 2 lot of strangle is aprrox. 3 lacs

• Book out based on target or SL:
- SL: if the losses amount to Rs. 5,000 or
- Target: it if the strangle is in profit of Rs. 10,000.
14/ Don't go into adjustments:

• Especially when you are in learning phase.

• Also Subasish doesn't believe in adjusting the legs, its usually SL or target for him.
15/Don't get sad when you SL is taken out

• Take that as a learning, as you will exactly know how much point SL you need to keep.

• How does the option premium behaves towards the expiry etc.
16/ Option buying requires more discipline

• Although any trader requires discipline while entering and exiting trades however option buyers requires this virtue a lot more.

• An option buyer can make money only if he can time the momentum properly.
17/ Option buying Timing:

• Usually momentum is better from 9.15- 10.30am.

• 5min TF will have more trades than 15min.

• Select the TF as per your temperament.

• If one has slightly more capital then look for trades between 1.30-3.30pm.

• 10.30-12.30pm: No trading zone.
18/ Trading psychology & discipline in option buying:

• If you have booked losses in 3-4 trades in the morning hour then just close for the day.

• If you are in profit in the morning trade , then you can risk that profit and trade in the closing hour.
19/ When to buy?

• E.g. you are using 5min TF.

• If any candle breaks the first 5min high or low buy CE or PE accordingly.

• Eg: Market gives a BO of the first 5min candle basis which you buy a CE option, but thereafter before reaching your 1:2 target it makes a downmove.
20/ When to exit?

• Now exit the CE buy and buy a PE.

• If the market is in momentum then you'll be in profit.

• If your SL gets hit, then that's an indication that market is consolidating.

• If both the sides SL gets hits then better to close trading for the day.
21/ Best time for option buyers having small capital:

• Focus only on 9.15-10.30am everyday.

• Thursdays when there is weekly expiry focus on 1.30-3.30 pm as well, as a strong move towards the end of expiry can fetch handsome returns.
22/ Take inspiration rather than getting influenced:

• Performance comparison should be with oneself rather than comparing with profits of others on the SM.

Before I start, a quick disclaimer, please don't ape his portfolio.

As the entry price, horizon and risk appetite would be far different than yours.

Rather lets draw inspiration and try to learn his stock picking skills.

Now let's DIVE IN👇

1/ Started off as a trader:

- Soon, beginner’s luck started to fade out and loses started to mount, to an extent where his mother was about to sell her ornaments.

- Although he was able to dodge the situation.

- This incident taught him the biggest lesson to have a stop-loss.

2/ Punjab Tractors:

- In 1990, he made his first investment by putting in his 10-years savings of Rs 35,000 in this stock, based on a news trigger that tractor industry will witness a turnaround.

- It worked and fetched him 4-5 times which he calls it as a fluke.


3/ He believes that an investor must possess three qualities:

i. Knowledge,
ii. Courage, and
iii. Patience.

A THREAD ON SL, TSL AND RE-ENTRIES-


WHERE TO PUT THE SL-

1. NEAREST PIVOT/SWING POINTS-

Normally I use this method for placing sl, In this method we use swing point for placing the SL.

As normally the stock would not try to go below previous swing point if it is to go in our direction.


2. ATR method-

Sometimes the Stock do not have any nearest pivot at time of buy, So we use this method as it gives us a level on basis of current volatility of the stock.

I use 1.5 ATR away sl , say the ATR at point of entry is 30, so I place sl
1.5 X, or 45 rs away from entry

In below example the entry is 120, ATR=5, SL= 1.5X ATR= 7.5 OR 113.

Nearest pivot was too far away, that’s why this method is used in these cases.


4. Anchor candles-

Anchor bars are those which have extreme Volume, gaps or wide Ranges.

Here, we place our sl below those candles which has the above characteristics.

For fun I made a Robinhood account. It took me 5 minutes to sign up, get approved and transfer funds for trading...

Here's some details... Read on.

...it took me another 5 minutes to get qualified for options.

If I share a sign up I get "free shares" and I can share as much as I want up to 500$ worth.

The main UI has a prepopulated "list" of stocks/crypto to watch and links to news.


Clicking a stock opens a "trade" button that looks like this.

Notice options is first, buy second.

Options took me to an approval process (which took about a minute) and now away I go trading Baba options.


Buying stock looks like this. It emphasizes fractional shares.

Below are the 10 Powerful Features of Options Decoder

Thread 🧵🧵

(1/N)


#1 - PE CE Difference

This feature combines the OI of call options and put options and plots against each other.

At one glance, we can know what big players are doing!

(If they are selling more CE means, they are bearish on the underlying instrument)

(2/N)


#2 - Advance/Decline

This feature displays all the F&O stocks in one place.

In one click, we can see the stocks in any order (like an increase in price, increase in OI, or decrease in volume, etc).

A highly useful feature for options traders!

(3/N)


#3 - Open High

This feature displays all the strike prices that have an open high (or open low) for the selected instrument.

If many CE strikes show "Open Low", then the market is bullish!

(4/N)


#4 - IV Price-OI Chart

This feature plots CE and PE vs. Open Interest (OI) for the ATM strike price.

Always Remember:

CE Long Build Up + PE Short Build Up = BULLISH

PE Long Build Up + CE Short Build Up = BEARISH

CE Short Build Up + PE Short Build Up = SIDEWAYS

“We don’t negotiate salaries” is a negotiation tactic.

Always. No, your company is not an exception.

A tactic I don’t appreciate at all because of how unfairly it penalizes low-leverage, junior employees, and those loyal enough not to question it, but that’s negotiation for you after all. Weaponized information asymmetry.

Listen to Aditya


And by the way, you should never be worried that an offer would be withdrawn if you politely negotiate.

I have seen this happen *extremely* rarely, mostly to women, and anyway is a giant red flag. It suggests you probably didn’t want to work there.

You wish there was no negotiating so it would all be more fair? I feel you, but it’s not happening.

Instead, negotiate hard, use your privilege, and then go and share numbers with your underrepresented and underpaid colleagues. […]

Did you know?

When Saudi Arabia's King visited India in 1955, PM Nehru ordered all the Hindu Temples and Idols of Hindu Deities that came in Saudi King's way to be covered up.
Our temples are the architectural marvels in their own league.


Each of our temples tells the story of our rich history and cultural heritage. Was Nehru that ashamed of his own nation's heritage that he had to cover them up or there was some other reason? The answer would be best known to him only.

PM Nehru invited the then Saudi King Saud bin Abdul Aziz to India who accepted the invitation and planned a 17 day long official visit to India in 1955. Saudi King had brought a large delegation with him and he had to visit various Indian cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Agra,


Aligarh, Shimla, Mysore and Varanasi. However, when Saudi King reached Varanasi, Nehru ordered to cover all the temples and Idols with curtains that came in the way of the Royal Convoy. During his stay in Varanasi, Govt buildings were painted with the words "Kalma Tayyiba".


'Kalma Tayyiba' means 'There is not God but only Allah and Mohammed is his messenger'. In addition to it, Pooja and Aartis were also stopped at temples. I can call it the appeasement politics of the highest order and Nehru was indeed the greatest appeaser of all times.

Light travels at about 1 foot per nanosecond.

Hold your hand up 12 inches from your face: you’re seeing your hand as it was a nanosecond ago. Everything you look at is, to one degree or another, in the past. The farther away in space, the more ancient in time.

You can’t see the Sun as it is now, but you can see it as it was about 8 minutes ago. You can’t see Alpha Centauri now, but you can see it 4.4 years ago. You can see the Andromeda Galaxy as it was 2.5 million years in the past. And so on.

With powerful telescopes, we can see galaxies whose light has been traveling to us for more than 13 billion years. We see them shining in a universe that’s still young, where gravity has just begun to pull matter together into stars and galaxies.

We can see something even more distant, and more ancient, than the first galaxies. If we peer out far enough, in between the galaxies, we can see parts of the Universe that are so far away, it has taken the light from that distance almost the entire age of the cosmos to reach us.

A thread on the life and achievements of Muhiyudin Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jillani RadiAllah who served Islam infinitely as the Reviver (Mujadid) of the 11th Century!


Muhiyudin Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) was one of the greatest Islamic Saint, Scholar, and Jurist. The honorific Muhiyudin denotes his status with many Sufis as a "reviver of religion". Jilani refers to his place of birth. He also carried the epithet Baghdadi.

[1]

Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani was born on the eve of the 2nd of Ramadan 470 AH. His birth was a great blessing for the Ummah. It was the arrival of the Sultan al-Awliya (King of the Awliya) of that era, which had been foretold for centuries before his birth.

[2]

When Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jillani was asked by someone what brought him to his high spiritual level, he said, The truthfulness which I promised to my mother. He related the following story:
"One day, on the eve of Eid al-Adhā, I went to my mother, who was then a widow and..

[3]

..and requested her, 'Send me to the path of Truth, give me permission to go to Baghdad to acquire knowledge, to be with the wise and those who are close to Allah. She cried, but she brought out 80 pieces of gold, which was all that my father had left as inheritance.
