Nifty initially tried to fill the gap. This attempt was failed. Then the momentum was reversed on the downside. The 8900 Call was sold at 145 Rs for risk of 2000 Rs. The call was later covered during the day.
The gap was partially filled, so there was buying initially, I wanted to play complete gap fill, but observed that there is no momentum in upward breakouts, hence exited the trade.
Before Market opens 1. US Markets were up 6% 2. All Asian markets up 3. First Large Gap up above resistance and previous high. This was a chance trade with high risk.

Formation of 7th Lower Low is being formed in the current week. Weekly momentum has not shown any signs of slowing down. Any Higher high candle will be a first bounce and...
Date : March 24, 2020 8:30 AM Asian markets up and SGX nifty up. There is no major news, so this could be a more technical pullback. Action : If it gaps up, sell 1 lot and cover on the gap fill. And then the idea would be to again buy gap fill and wait for profitable exit. If there is no gap, then wait for the index to establish the range. Look for any good...
Nifty was showing an uptrend for the day and as planned, out of money PUT option was sold and closed on the rise. This was done because, in case of sudden fall, loss is minimised to delta*fall.
