WHAT IS OPEN INTEREST, HOW TO ANALYZE IT AND DOES IT WORK?

In the thread I'll explain everything about Open interest and also all the tools used to analyze it and my personal opinion.

THIS IS THE ONLY THREAD YOU'LL EVER NEED ON OPEN INTEREST.

 1: What is Oi?

Support if Mr A buys 10 lots of 17000ce in Nifty and Mr B sells 10 lots of call in Nifty then the total Oi on 17000 strike price will be 10.

So Oi is basically the number of outstanding contracts which are not squared off.
2: What is Oi used for?

Oi is only used to determine support and resistance on a particular strike price.
For eg: Nifty 16000pe has the highest Oi and 16200pe has to highest Oi.

So 16000 and 16200 level can be considered as good supports.

In the same way, 16500 ce has highest Oi and it can be considered as a resistance.
3: But why?

Highest Oi at 16500ce indicates that highest number of people have sold it BUT it also means that highest number of people have Bought it!

If 16500 acts as resistance, the option will go to 0 and all the buyers will lose money.
So why do we consider it as resistance?

Why do we look at things from an option seller's perspective?
4: It is generally said that option sellers have deep pockets and they will do anything to protect their position.

And also most of the option sellers are positional hence considering things from their perspective can work .

But there's a catch!
5: Before that I'll explain the different tools/ways used to analyse oi

- Total Oi.
I've explained it already in the above example. 16200pe,16000pe on the put side have highest Oi
And 16500ce and the highest TOTAL OI on the call side. Hence we can expect market to trade between this range.
- Change in Oi

Change in oi represents the total change in Oi "TODAY" or present day/right now.

For example 16300pe has the highest addition on change in oi.

Hence we can expect 16300pe to be a good support since option sellers are building their postions.
- Intraday unwinding:

Taking the above example, lets say if market starts to trade below 16300, then the change in Oi figure of 69k at 16300pe will start to drop.

This indicates that 16300pe writers are giving up and this is a bearish sign.
- Positional unwinding:

If the change in Oi figure, starts to turn negative , then it means that the positional option writers are giving up which is a stronger sign.
For example: The change in oi at 16200ce is negative(-4.9k) which clearly indicates that 16200 call writers have given up indicating bullishness in the market.
6: What should you consider?

Out of these 4 tools what should you consider?

So there is no black and white answer you have to take reference from these tools and form your own view. You have to look at everything.
7: DO I BELIEVE OI STILL WORKS?

NO!

In 2018, Total Oi used to work very well.
In2019, Change in Oi was working very well.

But in 2020, Oi completely stopped working.
8: From 2020, the strikes with the highest oi started to breach.

Earlier it was very rare to see the strikes with highest oi get breached. Market used to perfectly respect it. But that's not the case now.
9: For eg: In Banknifty the oi gets built on every 500pts interval.

If Banknifty is at 35800, then 36000ce will have highest oi and 35000pe will have highest oi.

If Banknifty goes above 36000 , then 36000ce oi will start to drop
and 36000pe will start to build up. Hence the edge is lost.

Oi will keep on building and unwinding at every 500 pts strike price Which does make it useful in 2022.
10: I have also made a Youtube video on OI. check it out. https://t.co/L2eWujgUx0
11: Hope you enjoyed reading this and I hope I've changed your view about Oi.

HOW TO SAVE TAXES IN TRADING AS AN INDIVIDUAL?

A THREAD🧵

In this thread I'll list down all the legal ways in which you can save taxes on the profits you earned from the stock market.

1: Split your money between family members.

If you are trading with a good capital size, to lower taxes, you can always split your money in you family member's account. This greatly reduces your taxes.

It gets even better if they are not earning any money from other sources as there's no tax upto a certain income slab.

2: Claim expenses:

This is the best part. You can claim any expenses which are related to your business.

It could be :

- Rent: Rent of your office. If you're working from your house you can partially claim the rent of the house too.

- Devices: We can easily claim expenses on Laptops, mobile phones, ac, tv, fridge , etc. Anything that's related to the business.

- Internet and electricity: You can claim deduction on internet and electricity bill.

How do I handle big overnight gaps?

As I mostly take neutral positions overnight, I've been asked this a lot. So here you go.

1 : Take the right position sizing:

If you have the correct position size then there's nothing to fear from big gaps.

I like to take positions in such a way that I don't lose more than 2-3: incase of a big gap. This provides mental piece.

2: Have a calm mind:

This is of prime importance and somethin where most of the guys have trouble. Constantly panicking is going to do no good. What's going to happen will happen.

Having a calm mind allows you to think and act more clearly.

3: The 3 way rule:
If the markets open a a big gap there are not just going to stay there. Three things can happen.

a) It can go up : In this case you can use the move to recover our money.

b)It can go down : Just like the previous point you can take good advantage of it.

c) It stays there: After a big gap, obviously the IVs will explode. If the market stays then, premiums will be high and it will provide excellent opportunity to play neutral and recover your losses or atleast some part of it.

HOW TO ADJUST A SHORT STRANGLE?

Gone are those days where a short strangle used to expire worthless without any adjustments.

Adjustments are a must when your initial view goes wrong which it will.

Listing down all the ways to adjust a short strangle WITH EXAMPLES below.


1: Rolling up/down:

If you've sold a short strangle and one side premium spikes, you can book the profitable side and roll it up to match the premium of the other side.

eg: If you've sold a 60rs call and a 60rs put. If the 60rs call goes to 100. Then book profits in put and sell a 100 pt put.

This is the most basic way of adjustment.

2: Rolling the losing side:

It's very similar to the above adjustment however, we will consider shifting the losing side instead of profitable side.

eg: If you've sold 50pt call and 50pt put. If the 50pt put spikes up and goes to 120. Sometimes, I wouldn't want to sell a 120 pt call.

Hence, I simply book loss in the put and sell a new put worth 50pts which is farther away from the previous put.

HOW TRADING FROM A CORPORATE ACCOUNT CAN HELP YOU TO SAVE TAXES?

Since I myself have started trading from a corporate account recently, I'll share about my reasons for doing so and how drastically it can help to reduce taxes.

1: Save taxes:

The prime objective was only and only to reduce taxes. There's no other reason to trade from a corporate account.

2: Form a Pvt Ltd company : I've formed up a Pvt Ltd company since that's what I was advised by majority of the people including my CA as opposed to LLP/HUF.

3: Claiming Expenses: This is the most beneficial aspect of a pvt ltd company.

You can literally claim any expenses in the name of the company. Some of them are:

- Rent expense: You can literally claim your office rent as an expense. Your registered office can also be your own house where you live.

Further you can also claim electricity expenses and what not.

Trump is a Russian asset, a mob money launderer installed by his mob whoremasters to sow chaos and weaken the US & our allies.

EVERY SINGLE THING HE’S DONE since taking office is to achieve those purposes—that and to enrich himself personally.

[THREAD]


1/ His entire family is part of this. Melania is a fucking crook. Ivanka is a fucking crook. Junior and Gums are fucking crooks. They will all die in prison, except for Kushner, who, if he really *did* trade US intel for money, should be executed for espionage.

2/ Why do you think Trump installs uniquely corrupt & awful people to Cabinet positions? Pruitt, Zinke, Betsy, Rex/Pompeo, Wilbur "Melting Nazi Face" Ross. They are not there to serve us. They are not there to drain the swamp. They are there to BURN THE REPUBLIC DOWN.

3/ Trump steals. He takes taxpayer money—your money and mine—and lines his pockets with it. He exploits his office to make himself richer. This is all he cares about. Why are Republican citizens, you “fiscal conservatives,” not more angry about this? Riddle me THAT, #MAGA.

4/ Matt Whitaker, the human dildo and “acting AG,” was illegally installed to throw a monkey wrench in the Mueller investigation. That’s why they won’t release his financials. He’s fucking bought and sold. He’s going to prison for obstruction.

SRI CHAMPAKADHAMA SWAMY, BANNERGHATTA HILL, BENGALURU (KAR)
#bharatmandir

The shrine is dedicated to Sri Vishnu along with Devi Lakshmi and Bhoodevi.
It is built in an area full of Champaka trees.
As champaka flowers are offered to Sri Vishnu here, it is called Champakadhama.


It is believed that King Janmejaya had sarpa-dosha. To get rid of it, he took bath in the nearby pond. He emerged with a golden body and sarpa-dosha was also removed. The pond is called Swarnamukhi and believed to have curative powers.
Sri Vishnu murti was consecrated by him.


It is also believed that this forest area was the Dandakaranya where Sri Ram stayed in exile.
Some believe that the original shrine was built by Pandavas.
The pushkarni/pond is emptied once a year so that the rock at the bottom (which has image of Anjaneya) may be worshipped.

Did you know?

When Saudi Arabia's King visited India in 1955, PM Nehru ordered all the Hindu Temples and Idols of Hindu Deities that came in Saudi King's way to be covered up.
Our temples are the architectural marvels in their own league.


Each of our temples tells the story of our rich history and cultural heritage. Was Nehru that ashamed of his own nation's heritage that he had to cover them up or there was some other reason? The answer would be best known to him only.

PM Nehru invited the then Saudi King Saud bin Abdul Aziz to India who accepted the invitation and planned a 17 day long official visit to India in 1955. Saudi King had brought a large delegation with him and he had to visit various Indian cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Agra,


Aligarh, Shimla, Mysore and Varanasi. However, when Saudi King reached Varanasi, Nehru ordered to cover all the temples and Idols with curtains that came in the way of the Royal Convoy. During his stay in Varanasi, Govt buildings were painted with the words "Kalma Tayyiba".


'Kalma Tayyiba' means 'There is not God but only Allah and Mohammed is his messenger'. In addition to it, Pooja and Aartis were also stopped at temples. I can call it the appeasement politics of the highest order and Nehru was indeed the greatest appeaser of all times.

Simple and effective way 2 make Money


Idea 1:- Use pivot level like 14800 in case of nifty and sell 14800straddle monthly expiry (365+335) exit if nifty closes on daily basis below S1 or above R1

After closing below S1 if it closes above S1 next day or any day enter the same position again vice versa for R1

Idea2:- Use R1 and S1 corresponding strikes multiple
Incase of R1 15337 take 15300ce
N in case of S1 14221 use 14200pe
Sell both and hold till expiry or exit if nifty closes below S1 or above R1 around closing
If the same bounces above S1 and falls below R1 re-enfer same strikes

Use same criteria for nifty, usdinr and banknifty

(This is must)Use this margin rule for 1lot banknifty pair keep 4Lax margin
For nifty one lot keep 3Lax
For usdinr 100lots keep 4Lax

I bet you if you do this on consistent basis your ROI will be more than 70% on yearly basis.

Couldn't explain easier than this

Criticisms are most welcomed.
