Here comes the 3rd and final part of the long weekend 'Beginners' Pathway" series.

In this we'll see Open Interest basics and Option Chain Analysis.

There are two types of Options, Call Option & Put Option.

This graphics show when to buy and when to sell options.

The first thing that we need to know is the moneyness i.e. whether an Option is At the money (ATM), In the money (ITM) or Out of the Money (OTM).

The strike closest to the market price is At The Money.

I have tried to explain OTM & ITM in a very simplistic & easy manner.

Option chain of Nifty can be seen here

Thread : Trading Applications that I use on a daily basis🧵

1) After putting a detailed post on hardware & multi-monitor setup. Few asked for softwares I use for trading.

So I am listing softwares/apps which I find the most useful for trading & investing

2) Trading View or Kite app

I use trading view for intraday charts.

As I trade intraday, I use the 5 min time frame.

My chart is simple with 20 sma plotted on it along with CPR(central pivot range)

Price > 20 sma & CPR indicates bullish trend for intraday & vice-versa

3) Icharts

As I majorly trade option premiums(short volatility or theta decay strategies)

I keep a track of combined premium of strangle using @iChartsIndia

Combined premium should be trending down & below VWAP to create a strangle

4) QuantsApp

As I need to provide analysis on TV channel.

I need to analyse overall market breadth, futures data & option chain activitiy.

@quantsapp provides

Futures Data : Long Builtup/Short Builtup
Options Data : Max Call OI/ Put OI
Market Breadth : For overall sentiment

5) Spider

I used @SpiderSoftIn to scan momentum stocks for intraday.

Spider helps in identfiying :

stocks hitting 52 week high/ low
Stocks making day high/low
Stocks with large buying single orders

The thread explains my momentum scanner and how to build it in #TradePoint software.

Some ofthe biggest breakouts occur after Volatility Contraction, the analogy is that more a spring is pressed, higher it jumps whenever it gets released.

There is a VCP Scanner on chartink (Not mine). This may also be used to find potential Breakouts.

Don’t underestimate the power of circuit stocks;
and never underestimate the power of micro caps!
They give the cleanest textbook setups and respect fib levels.

Mind you, you’ve to time your entries and exits perfectly.
