Why is the Edge in Option Selling?
 Option sellers have a default edge (Time Decay).
 Statistics say that more than 80% options will
expire worth less.
 Most institutional traders do option selling
How to increase my return?
 Better way to increase the return is to reuse your
money.
 As a first step, invest your money in any asset which
can be pledged to NSE.
 Asset can be Stocks, MF (Equity or Debt), Bonds
and FD
 Never ever leave money liquid in your trading
account
Various Returns from money
 There are 3 types of return you can get
 Yield from your asset (Collateral) – 12%
 Return from your option selling – 12%
 Return from using extra exposure given by broker – 12 %
 We can achieve 36 per anum collectively
Recommendation to Naked Seller
 Most retail option sellers are naked sellers.
 Should have the ability to bring more capital if capital is
wiped out
 Play only with limited capital (Not more than 25L)
 Target 5-6% per month
 Never accumulate your profit into your capital
 Shift to Risk Defined Strategies if you cannot afford the
loose the entire capital in black swan event
 Avoid Stocks
Myths About Option Selling
 Unlimited Risk – It is only for naked option selling.
With proper hedging model, one can define the risk
 Return is too less – Make use of collateral, margin
and exposure benefits and return would be decent
 Limited profit – You can always roll up or down your
options. Can make better return
 Need special software for option Greek and other
stuffs – No need to have paid software. Free
software are available if needed.
 Only for big boys – People with 5L capital can do

Divergence
ADX Signal for intraday & expiry
 If ADX should be in uptrend below 25 with good
volume in force index
 ADX is directionless, but Force Index will signal
direction. Go long if Force Index is positive and Go
short if Force Index is negative.
 FI volume should be more than 100K for Banknifty
 Price should be above cloud for long and below cloud
for short.
 For expiry trading, use VWAP instead of cloud
 Book or Exit if force index comes to zero.
 Use short time frame below 5 minutes. Don’t use longer
time frame.
Example for ADX signal
Position size calculation for intraday
 Capital is 10L
 Risk 0.50%. Risk amount: 10L*0.50%=5000
 Generally SL is 20 points in Banknifty
 Hence volume = Risk (Amount)/Stop Loss (Points)
 Ex: 5000/20 = 250 (Trailed to 240 for Banknifty)
 Personally I take only 0.25% risk.
 Never have position size that can hurt more than 0.50%
of your capital
 For other scripts, you can do position size using the
same formula.
How to sell options for ADX signal
 Sell only weekly Banknifty options
 Sell naked PE for long and Naked CE for short.
Premium should be close to 100 at any day.
 The maximum loss shall be premium 20 in total (but do
not place SL at 120)
 If signal fails, sell options in opposite side before it hits
your SL 20 and try to come out without loss.
 Manage your positions as we manage strangle and
straddle in intraday
 Keep 20 SL for the entire trade system, not for positions
How to manage naked options
 Assume that you sold naked 27000 CE at 100 for ADX
signal for short
 Since we have 20 points as SL, we do not need to keep
SL for 27000 CE at 120
 Instead we can sell in opposite side (Sell 27000 or some
strike price PE close to the premium for 27000 CE)
before it 27000 CE goes to 120
 Now your total positions could be either short strangle
or short straddle (SS)
 Manage your positions as we manage SS in intraday
(will be explained in intraday section later)
Option Selling using ADX signal
 It works for all high beta stocks.
 Never use this signal when there is a mega event
 Do this trade only from 9:30 am to 3.00 pm.
 Enable this chart in expiry day.
 For expiry, use VWAP instead of cloud because we want
to capture early violent move
 Exit all sold CEs if you get long signal.
 Exit all sold PEs if you get short signal.
 You can also buy ATM or ITM options based on force
index direction to hedge your sold out options.
 Used this ADX indicator to exit my positions in expiry.
FNO Data Analysis
 Future Position – Current speculation of Nifty and
Banknifty stocks.
 Highest IO – Acts as support and resistance.
 Recent Winding and Unwinding of OI – Recent
pulse of option writers.
 Put Call Ratio (PCR) – Indicates the mood of option
market for the market direction.
 MAX Pain – The point where most options will
become worthless.
 Track all these data in our website
https://www.capitalzone.in/fo-data/
Note on MaxPain
 Pain is calculated based on OI, not based on
premium
 It shifts usually 4-5 times in a monthly expiry
 In weekly expiry, it can move violently.
 Based on your positions (weekly or monthly), watch
weekly or monthly max pain
 All trend-follower can use this for confirmation
 Do not reply on max pain if big gap happens
because most option sellers would be in profit with
future which will not be discounted in max pain
FNO Data Analysis Key Points
 Consider stock weightage while analysing stock future.
 Consider delivery volumes along with speculation.
 Recent Winding and Unwinding of OI can be ignored if
it is far OTM near expiry.
 Consider OI changes near OTMs.
 More weightage should be given to Future, Max Pain and
then OI
 Strong trend will move along with MAX Pain, PCR and
high OI
Diversification & Positional size (Positional)

 Big Boy Covered Call – Equal to Underlying

 Butterfly/Twisted Sister/Iron Condor – 50%
 Calendar spread – 30%
 Call ratio – 25 %
 Credit Spreads – 25%

 Free cash – 10%

All numbers represent margin for option selling

 Iron fly – 50%
 Call Ratio – 25 %
 Trend-following – 25%
 Put Calendar – 25%

All numbers represent margin for option selling

Big Boy Covered CE
Definition: Long in cash market and sell CE
When: Buy quality large cap stocks equal to FNO
volume size. Buy at least 8-10 stocks
Volume: Sell CE equal to cash market value at 10%
above spot price
Exit: Leave to expiry. If it goes down, roll down your
CE
Example: You bought Reliance shares at 1100. Sell CE
at 1200
Advantage of Big Boy covered CE
 Since you are long in cash market, selling CE is
totally risk free.
 Phycological advantage of holding sold CE if spot
comes to strike price.
 Selling CEs in many stocks will diversify your risk,
only few stocks will hit your strike price
 Total immunity from black swan event at any cost
 High probability of getting profit in cash market and
option selling
 Easily one can target 24% per Anum
 Tax and roll over charges will be very minimal
Managing Big Boy Covered CE
 Roll down or sell additional CE if underlying stock
comes down
 Only few stocks will hit your strike price, if it expires
1-2% above your strike price, just book minor loss.
 If underlying hits in middle of the expiry, do either
of the followings to manage it based on your view
and comfort
 Add Put credit spread to compensate the loss of CE
 Add COLLAR strategy in long side
 Risk taker can initiate either put ratio OR Elite+ in
Long side
Ex: Managing Big Boy Covered CE
 You bought Reliance share at 1100 and sold 1200 CE
at 10
 RIL hits 1200 15 days before expiry
 Never even naked PE to defend your CE
 Do either one of these strategies
 Put credit spread sell 1160PE and buy 1140 PE
 Create COLLAR (Long at 1200 , buy 1160 PE and sell 1240
CE) – Preferred
 Keep creating collar if underlying goes up
Short Strangle
Definition: Selling CE /PE in OTM strike price
When: IV is high, market is range bound
Target/SL: Leave to expiry
Volume: 5-10%
Exit: Roll up/Down CE and PE to match the premium
till it becomes straddle
Duration: 10 days or more away to expiration
Premium: As per the table given
Example: Sell 10000 PE & 11000CE when Nifty is at
10500
Managing strangles
 Roll up your PE if market goes up
 Roll up your CE if market does down
 All rolls should be done if max pain moves
 Make sure that the premium in CE and PE should
be equal after shifting
 Once it becomes short straddle as manage it as we
manage short straddle
Short Straddle
Definition: Selling CE /PE in same strike price - Short
straddle
When: IV is high, market is range bound
Target/SL: Leave to expiry. Exit if max pain moves
Volume: 5-10%
Exit: Create more SS if market comes down, add more
call ratio. If market goes, book profit in SS
Duration: 45 days or more away to expiration
Premium: above 350 (nifty) and 900 (Banknifty)
Example: Sell 10000 CE and PE when Nifty is at 10000
Managing short straddle
Create first SS for 5% of your total portfolio
Do average in 200 points difference if Nifty moves
with max pain
Total volume would be 10% after averaging
Create put credit spread or put calendars (diagonal or
ITM) if market goes up
Sell additional CE if market comes down
Go long in future if market touches upside break-
even, buy PE and exit all put strategies
Go short in future if market touches downside break-
even
Ex: Managing SS in upside
Created SS at 11000 (400 premium)
Created one more SS at 11200 (market went up)
Average SS is at 11100 (premium 400)
Break-even is from 10700-11500
Created put strategies (if market goes up again)
put strategies include all PCS, put credit spread
Go future long in upside breakeven
Ex: Long at 11500
Buy PE to protect future long at lower strike price
Ex: Buy PE at 11000
Do all these adjustments if market goes up with
maxpain
Ex: Managing SS in downside
Created SS at 11000 (400 premium)
Created one more SS at 10800 (market came down)
Average SS is at 10900 (premium 400)
Break-even is from 10500-11300
Created call strategies (if market goes down again)
Call strategies include all Call ratio & Naked CE
Sell CE for the premium equal to the loss in SS
Go future short in downside breakeven
Ex: Short Future at 10500
Do all these adjustments if market goes up with
maxpain
Disclaimer about Straddle/Strangle
 Strangles/Straddles come under risk undefined strategies
 The loss is unlimited and vulnerable for downside risk in
black swan event.
 Never ever do more than 10% total volume in
straddle/strangle totally put together
 If your capital is huge & you are very conservation person, I
would advise not to implement this strategies for positional
trading
 Better to replace with Iron Condor/Twister Sister/Double
butterfly
 Double Calendar is not advisable as both sides will be in loss
if there is a violent movement in one side

Expiry Trading
 Check how quantities (10K to me) can be sold in intraday.
 Divide it by 20. Approximately it is 2400 to me.
 Sell options slowly in both side one by one (I do 2400
quantities) and follow delta neutral hedging rule.
 Exploit weighted average price kicked in after 3.00 pm
 Sell options premium with the following values with time.
 Rs 5 at 9:15 am
 Rs 4 at 11 am
 Rs 3 at 12:30 pm
 Rs 2 at 2 pm
 Rs 1 at 3 pm
 Rs 0.50 at 3:12 pm.
Cardinal Rules for Expiry Trading
 Do not sell further CE if market goes up
 Do not sell further PE if market goes down.
 Never sell more than 4 times option than Opp0site.
 Be ready to exit the positions if ADX is getting triggered.
 After 3 pm, have SL for all your positions.
 Avoid future.
 Better not to initiate trading after 3 pm initially.
 Always choose OTM options.
 Don’t play with ITM option. It will become illiquid near
expiry.
 Get more exposure and go far OTM to reduce the risk.
One Day Before Expiry
 Make sure that you used 80% or below of your margin
utilization or below.
 Sell options in both sides as we do for expiry with premium
 Rs 10 at 9:15 am
 Rs 8 at 11 am
 Rs 6 at 12:30 pm
 Rs 4 at 2 pm
 Follow all other expiry day rules.
 Book your profits wherever it is. Carry forward your position
which is loss.
 Tomorrow is expiry. Get intraday limit and defend your
positions as per expiry day trading rules.
One Day Before Expiry Example
 Your capital is 10L. Existing positions occupy 8L margin.
 Sell CE and PE from 9:15 am to 2.00 pm in both sides based
on market movements.
 Assume that you sold CE and PE with 2L margin each.
 Now you have taken position for 12L now.
 Suppose market went up at 3:15 pm. Hence PE will be profit
and CE will be in loss.
 Book profit in PE (2L is margin released) and carry forward
the CE position for tomorrow expiry. Hence only 10L margin
will be blocked.
 Don’t do much volume.
 Exit if it goes to ITM in the market hours.

 Positional – 1 per Month
 Intraday – 2% per Month
 Intraday (0.25% per Week)
Notional Value
 The total contract value of naked sold option without leverage.
 Example:
 You have 10L capital
 You sold 10 PE Banknifty options
 1 Banknifty option notional value is around 10L
 Hence notional value of your positions 1 crore
 It is 10X notional value
 If there is a 10% gap down, your capital may be wiped out.
 Never ever allow your notional value more than 2.5 times
 Know your notional value before creating any positions
Cardinal Rules for strategies
 Always be protected in downside (PUT side).
 Make sure that you have 1 long PE for each short PE.
 Exception would be a short straddle because we collect high
premium.
 Be ready to accept 10% lower freeze.
 Create more broken wing butterfly.
 Deploy not more than 25% of folio in any strategy.
 Do call ratio spreads, but not put ratio spread. Instead make it
long PUT butterfly or PUT calendar spread.
 Don’t use more 10% volume in strange/straddle for positional.
Instead make it butterfly, Iron condor or twister sister
 Never do lizards as downside is not protected
Risk Management
 Have Portfolio SL (2%)
 Diversify positions
 Generally don’t have much position during
weekend
 Never Borrow and Trade
 Don’t trade when there is a mega event
