IMP 🚨 INVESTIGATION
India's lockdown was called world's largest, strictest etc. @ BBC, we wanted to know how the govt planned it.
So, what're we looking at?
Govt docs that reveal every department/agency who was consulted by PM Modi before imposing #lockdown.

China, with thousands of deaths and cases by March 2020, never imposed a national lockdown.
Let's start with what we've got now.
So we asked NDMA - who all were consulted before lockdown? Also, how many NDMA meetings did the PM attend? Their response.
NIL to both. Yes, NIL.

@FinMinIndia depts transferred our apps to MHA. But when MHA sent them all back, admitted it had no info on consultations.

They had no information on consultations.
In fact, nothing to show they were EVEN INFORMED before lockdown.

CMs/Govs from Assam, Delhi, Punjab, Gujarat, UP, DONER (centre's bridge to North East) all of them had nothing to show they knew.
*UP CMO threw our application out when it was asked about its own prep and info.

Over 1 crore workers had to return home post lockdown.
@LabourMinistry could not produce ONE DOCUMENT to show it had given any suggestions/foreseen the crisis/provided means to avert it - before the lockdown came.
Proof?
Well even NiTi Aayog's own documents don't support what Rajiv Kumar is saying.
We asked them TWICE.
In the release issued afterwards, we found no mention of the word 'lockdown'. When we asked PMO if the topic was even broached, no information was provided. @HMOIndia asked us to see the press release again.
It was claimed India had adequate PPEs, isolation beds, masks. Then, on Feb 22, 2020 - 2 days before Trump arrived, @drharshvardhan claimed India had 'stalled' entry of coronavirus.
They were looking to their government.
Found it absent.
Without lockdown, would suffering have been more? We don't know.
To be fair, few govts world over did well against the virus.
Q remains - why did India dive into something MINUS it's best & relevant experts on board?

We requested the Modi Govt to put its point of view forward and waited for @PrakashJavdekar @MIB_India for OVER THREE FULL WEEKS.

BREAKING: President Donald Trump has submitted his answers to questions from special counsel Robert Mueller
— Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) November 20, 2018
Mueller's officially end his investigation all on his own and he's gonna say he found no evidence of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election.
Democrats & DNC Media are going to LITERALLY have nothing coherent to say in response to that.
Mueller's team was 100% partisan.
That's why it's brilliant. NOBODY will be able to claim this team of partisan Democrats didn't go the EXTRA 20 MILES looking for ANY evidence they could find of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election
They looked high.
They looked low.
They looked underneath every rock, behind every tree, into every bush.
And they found...NOTHING.
Those saying Mueller will file obstruction charges against Trump: laughable.
What documents did Trump tell the Mueller team it couldn't have? What witnesses were withheld and never interviewed?
THERE WEREN'T ANY.
Mueller got full 100% cooperation as the record will show.

Strangle selling. ( I am doing mostly in weekly Bank Nifty)
When to sell? When VIX is below 15
Assume spot is at 27500
Sell 27100 PE & 27900 CE
say premium for both 50-50
If bank nifty will move in narrow range u will get profit from both.

Nothing big deal in that.
For selling weekly option just identify last week low and high.
Now from that low and high keep 1-1.5% distance from strike.
And sell option on both side.

1st Live example of managing a strangle by Mitesh Sir. @Mitesh_Engr
• Sold Strangles 20% cap used
• Added 20% cap more when in profit
• Booked profitable leg and rolled up
• Kept rolling up profitable leg
• Booked loss in calls
• Sold only
Sold 29200 put and 30500 call

Used 20% capital@44 each
2nd example by @Mitesh_Engr Sir on converting a directional trade into strangles. Option Sellers can use this for consistent profit.
• Identified a reversal and sold puts
• Puts decayed a lot
• When achieved 2% profit through puts then sold
Already giving more than 2% return in a week. Now I will prefer to sell 32500 call at 74 to make it strangle in equal ratio.
