There are various Options Greeks like: Delta, Gamma, Vega, Rho, Theta.

A complete guide on how these #Option Greeks impact option price.

1/ Delta:

Delta is a measure of the sensitivity of an option’s price changes relative to the changes in the underlying asset’s price. In other words, if the price of the underlying asset increases by 1 points, the price of the option will change by delta amount.

Call option has positive delta, and put option has a negative delta.

As the options become ITM, the value of delta tends towards +1 for call and -1 for put.

Delta is important greeks to determine the hedge ratio for investors who want to hedge their portfolio.

2/ Gamma:

Gamma (Γ) is a measure of the delta’s change relative to the changes in the price of the underlying asset.
If the price of the underlying asset increases by 1 points, the option’s delta will change by the gamma amount.

Long options (call/put) have positive Gamma.

Gamma decreases as options move away from ATM, i.e. as options become OTM/ITM.

Think like this, Delta is basically the velocity and gamma is acceleration as taught in the physics.

3/ Vega:

Vega (ν) is an option Greek that measures the sensitivity of an option price relative to the volatility of the underlying asset. If the volatility of the underlying asset increases by 1%, the option price will change by the vega amount.

An increase in vega generally corresponds to an increase in the option value (both calls and puts) and a decrease in vega means a decrease in the option value for both calls and puts.

Rising vega is a friend of option buyers and falling vega is a friend of option sellers.

4/ Rho:

Rho (ρ) measures the sensitivity of the option price relative to interest rates and it is least significant Option Greeks because option price are less sensitive to interest rate. If an interest rate increases by 1%, the option price will change by the rho amount.

If the interest rate rises, then the value of the call option will rise and the value of put option will fall.
Similarly, if the interest rate decrease, then the value of the call option will fall and the value of the put option will rise.

5/ Theta: Most important Option Greeks for Option Seller.

Theta (θ) is a measure of the sensitivity of the option price relative to the option’s time to maturity. If the option’s time to maturity decreases by one day, the option’s price will change by the theta amount.

Theta is negative for both call and put options. As the expiry date is fixed and as options move closer to the expiry, the premium will go down or melt.

Also, the value of the option for far expiry will be more than near expiry as it has more time left for expiry.

This is the complete digest for the Options Greeks.
For me, the most important Greeks are Theta and Vega, as I am an option seller.

2/10

Different uses:

1⃣ Moving Average Crossovers:

Common strategy used by positional traders and investor in finding multibagger or good returns stocks.

Common crossover used is for 50 & 200 Moving Average.

Also, this is called as "𝗚𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗖𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿"

3/10

In this buy signal is initiated when lower MA (50 EMA) crosses above higher MA (200 EMA).
And exit or sell signal is intiated when lower MA (50 EMA) crosses below higher MA (200 EMA).

4/10

Let's see an example:
Pidilite Industries

Buying Price was 56 in 2009 and CMP is 2462 and still there is no selling signal.

44 times Multibagger or 4300% returns.

In lower time frame, it will give more whipsaw and more number of trades.

A thread 🧵:

1/ All Time High Breakout:

Stock that breaks the uptrend are the one that can give massive upmove.
These stocks are considered as strong stocks in the market.

Timeframe should be monthly and if price closes above ATH on any day you can enter.

Example 1:

Bajaj Finance gave a breakout above ATH at around 55 and then it moved up till 5000 levels.

Total returns of 9000% in 10 years.

Simple Strategy, isn't it?

Example 2:

Reliance Chart.

It gave breakout above its All Time High level after 10 years and then never looking back.

Price moved up from 700 to 2600.
Returns of 270% in five years.

How to Follow Stoploss?

Initially keep stoploss at swing low on monthly chart and trail your stoploss accordingly to enjoy massive upmove.

Other ways of Trailing Stoploss can be using 200 EMA or any other indicator.

People say that Part Time Trading is not easy.

I am a Part Time Trader for more than 7 years and I have been using most of these tricks in my own #trading.

Here are some free hacks for a Part Time Traders to generate additional returns along with their Job/Business 🧵:

1/ First select in what instrument you will trade or invest:

This question can be answered depending on the skills and your edge in trading.

I have my edge in Option Selling and Positional Trading.
So divided my capital in half in these two.

Note: It is not necessary to jump into Futures and Options Trading just looking at lucrative profit screenshot.

Always protect your capital and don't take huge risk.

Generate returns that give you peace of mind.

2/ Let's say you pick up Option Trading as edge.

Then you should have a proper setup that you will trade. It can be intraday or positional.

For Intraday, put alerts and Stoploss order in the system always.

For Positional as well, use alerts at Target Level or Stoploss.

3/ Let's say you pick up Cash Trading.

Then you will have to do all the chart analysis one day before. Then wait for your entry to get triggered in any stocks.

For that simply use alerts and you get notify if entry is triggered.
