Total points in nifty captured is 18.45 * 75(lot size) Trade2: • FM completed speech at 12:45 – 12:50 and suddenly marks started upside movement. • So I thought of taking long straddle • As banknifty moves more than nifty (because of one sector) I took trade in bank nifty Mistakes Took trade little late at 1:11 pm • Took trade little late at 1:11 pm 1. Took long straddle 32400 weekly at 466.45+522 = 988.45 2. After taking trade almost for 1 hour market went into sideways 3. There I made a mistake of setting a exit limit order for one of the leg (32400ce) 4. As once move came up side , my 32400ce exited from trade and 32400pe went into losses , As soon as I saw 4000 loss I exited the trade Trade 3: • Once I made conclution that market is going upside , I want to create positional trade up side by buying ATM call and selling OTM call • But due to insufficient margin only buy order executed but sell order rejected .
• So I immediately exited the call option (here as it is trending and intraday I
may use SL and should continued the trade) Trade 4 • I have re initiated the same positional trade again Have lost good opportunity
