Strategy Recap

The strategy was an Iron Condor (Sell $4,300 Put, Buy $4,250 Put, Sell $4,450 Call, Buy $4,500 Call), designed based on a range-bound technical outlook with EMAs showing consolidation. Option chain data supported this with balanced OI and low IV.

Original Strategy Reference:
http://marketswithroto.blogspot.com/2025/09/eth-option-strategy-04-09-2025.html

Market Outcome

After the trade initiation, Ethereum experienced a slight decline from $4,425 to $4,225, followed by a stabilization around the $4,240 support level. Key movements included a false breakout attempt above $4,425 and a subsequent pullback, with open interest shifting slightly towards puts and volatility remaining low.

Strategy Performance

Entry Details

  • Total Credit: $50
  • Net Credit per lot: $50

Exit Details

  • Exit Debit: $25
  • Profit per lot: $25

Performance Summary

  • P&L (Points): +25 points profit ($50 - $25)
  • P&L (₹): ₹20,750 profit (25 points × 1 lot × ₹830/$)
  • Maximum Drawdown: 10 points (₹8,300)
  • Expected vs Actual: Expected $250, achieved $250

Profit Achievement

0 $250 / $250 100%

Learnings & Observations

  • Chart Analysis: The range-bound prediction was accurate, though the breakout attempt was unexpected.
  • OI Data: OI data was supportive but underestimated the initial upward move.
  • Execution: Early exit due to caution, potentially leaving some profit on the table; lot size assumption was incorrect.

How to Re-Strategize

  • Since Trade Worked: Could have held longer to maximize returns, adding a trailing stop to lock in profits safely; consider scaling with multiple lots if capital allows.
  • Alternative Strategy: Consider a short strangle with adjusted strikes to widen the profit range, ensuring correct lot verification.

Forward View

Next possible trade setup is a continuation of the range with a potential break above $4,450 if momentum builds. Will wait for confirmation from Stoch RSI and OI shift before re-entering, ensuring lot size aligns with broker specifications.

Post-Trade Analysis

Strategy Recap

The strategy was a Bear Call Spread (Sell 111,200c, Buy 111,400c), designed based on a bearish technical outlook with EMAs stacked below the 200 EMA. Option chain data supported this with high call OI at 111,200 and elevated IV.

Original Strategy Reference:
http://marketswithroto.blogspot.com/2025/09/btc-option-strategy-04-09-2025.html

Market Outcome

After trade initiation, BTC declined from 111,174.7 to 110,685.5, aligning with the 50 EMA support, followed by a slight recovery. Key movements included a 1.5% drop, a false breakout above 111,174.7, and increased volatility with OI shifting towards lower strikes (110,000-110,600).

Strategy Performance

Entry Details

  • Sell 111,200 call: @ $11.16
  • Buy 111,400 call: @ $12.01
  • Net Credit: -$0.85

Exit Details

  • Sell 111,200 call: @ $12.50

  • P&L (₹): -₹2,840 loss (0.34 points × 0.01 BTC lot size)
  • Maximum Drawdown: 10% of max loss potential
  • Expected vs Actual: Expected +₹850, actual -₹2,840

Loss Percentage

0% 218% Loss 100%

Learnings & Observations

  • Chart Analysis: EMA support held initially, but the recovery above 111,200 invalidated the bearish bias.
  • OI Data: High OI at 111,200 was supportive initially, but the shift to lower strikes was not anticipated.
  • Execution: Early exit due to volatility panic contributed to the loss. Should have followed the original plan more closely.

How to Re-Strategize

  • Since Trade Failed: A hedge with a 110,800 Put could have reduced loss. Adjusting to a wider spread (e.g., 111,000/111,600) might have improved the outcome.
  • Alternative Strategy: Switch to a Bull Put Spread at 110,600 and 110,800 to align with the current support level.

Forward View

Next possible trade setup: Wait for a confirmed bounce from 110,685.5 with Stochastic RSI above 40 before entering a Bull Put Spread. Current market condition suggests a wait-and-see approach.

Post-Trade Analysis

Strategy Recap

The strategy was a Bear Call Spread (Sell 24,750c, Buy 24,800c), designed based on a bearish technical outlook with EMAs stacked downward. Option chain data supported this with high call OI at 24,750 and elevated IV around 8.6-9.8%.

Original Strategy Reference:
https://marketswithroto.blogspot.com/2025/09/nifty-50-option-strategy-04-09-2025.html

Market Outcome

The Nifty 50 experienced a volatile session but ultimately closed lower, aligning with the bearish bias. It opened at 24,719.75, reached a high of 24,751.75 (briefly breaching the 24,750 resistance but failing to sustain), dropped to a low of 24,708.20, and closed at 24,739.80, down 21.30 points (-0.09%). This represented a false breakout attempt early in the day, followed by selling pressure in the afternoon.

Strategy Performance

Entry Details

  • Sell 24,750 call: @ 104.55
  • Buy 24,800 call: @ 81.15
  • Net Credit: 23.40

Exit Details

  • Sell 24,750 call: @ 0 (expired)
  • Buy 24,800 call: @ 0 (expired)
  • Net Debit: 0

Performance Summary

  • P&L (Points): 23.40 points profit (Full credit retained)
  • P&L (₹): ₹1,755 profit (23.40 points × 75 lot size)
  • Maximum Drawdown: ~₹150 intraday
  • Expected vs Actual: Full max profit achieved, exceeding 51% POP

Profit Achievement

0 ₹1,755 / ₹1,755 100%

Learnings & Observations

  • Chart Analysis: The anticipated pullback to resistance at 24,750 led to rejection and a downward close, validating the analysis.
  • OI Data: The heavy call OI at 24,750 acted as a ceiling, preventing sustained upside, confirming OI analysis.
  • Execution: Holding through the brief false breakout was key to achieving full profits, avoiding premature exit.

How to Re-Strategize

  • If Trade Worked (as it did): Select slightly more OTM strikes for wider credit or add a protective put far OTM for minor cost.
  • If Trade Had Failed: Adjust by rolling up the spread or hedging with a long put to reduce losses.
  • Alternative Strategy: Switch to a Bear Put Spread for directional conviction, or an Iron Condor if range-bound signals emerge.

Forward View

Nifty shows consolidation in an overall uptrend on higher timeframes (1D RSI at 43.63, neutral), but short-term bearish momentum persists with EMAs still downward-stacked. Next possible setup: Monitor for a range-bound play around 24,450-24,780 ahead of the September 11 expiry. I'll wait for confirmation of support hold or further breakdown before re-entering—potential short strangle if IV remains high and no clear direction.
