I gathered the best Youtube videos to learn Expiry trading for free.

If you want to master expiry trading, open this thread: 🧵

Collaborated with @niki_poojary

 Here's what you'll find in this thread:

1. ATM strikes to zero
2. Big Gaps on Expiry Day
3. How to trade expiry when Nifty is behaving differently
4. Using Data points to trade expiry
5. Play for a flat move
6. How to profit post 3 pm exploiting the close price?

Let's go ↓
1. How to develop a framework to trade in ATM strikes on expiry day? Subhasish Pani on @vivbajaj Sir's channel.

One of call or put at ATM is going to go to zero.

Whichever is moving rapidly has a higher probability of going ATM/ITM. Sell the slower one.

https://t.co/kx97lDW68J
2. How to trade a big gap up on expiry day?

If market bias is bullish and a gap-up happens, it comes for selling.

Can buy puts at the breakout of an inside candle as the market has a good probability of at least heading toward the previous day's close.

https://t.co/3MZ0ZmMzgL
3. How to trade in Bank Nifty if it has already moved 160 points from its high to low by 11:30? @ThetaGainers

Sell near otms with double stop loss.

Avoid if stuck in a very small range.

Get out of both by 1 pm.

https://t.co/eaRdJusbC8
4. Subhasish Pani explains how to play expiry when Nifty and Bank Nifty both are behaving differently.

By the way, his zero to hero logics are:
1. Big candles are supports/resistances
2. Gaps act as S/R
3. Closing price acts as S/R

https://t.co/9Lt4B9vqEp
5. How to use data points to trade expiry? @ThetaGainers

Starts by selling 15-20 rs strangles at 9:20 which are very far otm.

By 10:30 am he starts to look at Change in OI strikes on line charts to predict zero strikes.

https://t.co/Ob8y8BqEAY
6. How to make a profit post 3 pm by exploiting the close price? @itjegan

Sells straddles, if the call and put premiums are 4x of the other.

Sells whichever option goes below 10 with an SL.

This alone accounts for 10-15% of his expiry day profits.

https://t.co/tepf9bcH65
7. Reeyansh from @ThetaGainers explains how to do gamma scalping on expiry days by buying options.

Waits for a range to form on expiry till 1:30 pm.

If any move comes, buys options with good risk-reward.

Or buy both at 1:30 and square off when double.

https://t.co/IUr4Y5m4EN
8. How @itjegan Sir makes a high profit on expiry days?

Re-enters strikes, locks the profits, and keeps re-entering and does adjustments.

Drawdowns are less compared to his profits by doing all these.

https://t.co/M3RjWXJbnf
9. How to use PCR and Change in Open Interest to gauge the direction of the expiry?

Explained well by @nitinmurarkasmc and @PushkarRThakur.

Whichever side has a high Change in OI whether call or put look to buy options on the opposite side near VWAP.

Have covered:
1. Analysis of volatility, how to foresee/signs.
2. Workbook
3. When to sell options
4. Diff category of days
5. How movement of option prices tell us what will happen

1. Keeps following volatility super closely.

Makes 7-8 different strategies to give him a sense of what's going on.

Whichever gives highest profit he trades in.


2. Theta falls when market moves.
Falls where market is headed towards not on our original position.


3. If you're an options seller then sell only when volatility is dropping, there is a high probability of you making the right trade and getting profit as a result

He believes in a market operator, if market mover sells volatility Sarang Sir joins him.


4. Theta decay vs Fall in vega

Sell when Vega is falling rather than for theta decay. You won't be trapped and higher probability of making profit.

If you use it right, Iron Fly is the most solid risk-defined strategy in trading.

But most people don't know how to adjust the strategy when it goes wrong.

Here are 7 adjustments you can do to lower risk and increase profitability: 🧵

Collaborated with @niki_poojary

0/ Who is this for?

This will greatly benefit people who freeze when it comes to managing their trades and keep booking losses.

Some trade with too much fear as well when things go wrong.

Knowing these adjustments will give you the confidence to try to manage your trades.

Most of them are to lower risk on the side the market is going in.

Some adjustments even increase the profit potential and probabilities of the trade being in profit on expiry.

Let's begin by having a look at the adjustments.

Here is the adjustment number 1 below.

1/ Don't do anything till your breakeven arrives

One reason these strategies go wrong far too quickly is due to adjusting them too frequently.

You can escape most adjustments if you simply wait for the market to arrive at your breakeven.

This will work well in monthly options.

2/ Remove Risk from Untested Side

If you've taken an iron fly and the market has gone up you can shift your put buy upwards and lock the downside risk to potentially zero.

This way you've secured one side and just need to manage the bleeding side.

With a return of more than 170% & an average return of 4% on expiry days.

@Ronak_Unadkat converted 2 Cr to 5.5 Cr this year.

We met him in Mumbai & watched him do expiry trading live.

14 things to learn from him for trading FinNifty (for free):

Collaborated with @niki_poojary

(1) Small Account

First of all, let me tell you, he is trading Finnifty in only his small account.

His main expertise is Bank Nifty so he is keeping his main account only for that.

After 1 year of successful Finnifty trading, he will start with his bigger account as well.

(2) What returns to target in Finnifty?

He only trades this index for three days, i.e Friday, Monday and Tuesday.

His goal is to make 1% from here and another 1% through Bank Nifty.

This gives him a 2% week if he plays this well which is his main strength.

(3) Level-Based Trading:

He is a level-based trader, and won't book losses until his level comes.

If the level does not come, he will eat all the premiums & profit.

If the level breaks, whatever loss it shows him, he will book.

(4) How does he find his levels?

He will monitor the highest high and the lowest low of the three days i.e Fri, Mon & Tue.

Those levels he is mostly interested in shorting aggressively.

If no premiums there he will come closer.

A thread on Pyramiding-


What is pyramiding?

In pyramiding we add on to a position when it is going in our direction. Its basically opposite of averaging down.

MOMENTUM - Success of a pyramiding trade depend on this ingredient, the more the momentum the better pyramiding.


There are many way to enter and exit in a stock-

1. ALL IN - ALL OUT
2. ALL IN - SCALE OUT
3. SCALE IN - SCALE OUT
4. SCALE IN - ALL OUT ( I use this one)

Why traders use Pyramiding ?

More than anything what pyramiding do is keep your losers small and your winners - Big.

Pyramiding in my view keeps your dd smaller as your losers are very small because you enters with only a fraction of what you would have entered Normally.

BUT, not necessarily it should be more profitable than ALL IN- ALL OUT, Where one enters all at once and sell all at once.

HOW TO DO PYRAMIDING-

There are various methods which are used by traders for pyramiding ,while keeping the basic concept of adding onto the strength.

1. PYRAMIDING AND TRAILING BASED UPON STRUCTURE-

In this method we scale in or pyramid the qty when the stock breaks above

Overthinking - The art of creating problems which weren't even there.

Thread on How Over-analysis leads to decision Paralysis-


What is Analysis paralysis?

In simple terms, analysis paralysis is a person's tendency to over-analyze or over-think upon a decision to such an extent that he/she fails to make a choice resulting in a paralyzed state of inaction.


How a retail trader trades-

A trader named Rahul, He know all the basics of markets, He also has made a system which gives signals on nifty, he has also encorporated good Risk management and Position sizing into his system.

One day he gets a signal to buy Nifty at 13500 with stop at 13450, he wanted to take the trade, but he wanted to get sure that the trade he has take should be a winner.

So he says just let me check the RSI if its above this level I will buy , he checks it and it was above his

level, then again he wants to check another indicator named MACD, he wanted to get sure man, Now he do the most intelligent thing to get sure he gets right.

He goes to twitter and ask his twitter Friend Trader knight he ask him that should I buy nifty at 13500,

Pyramiding 2.0

A thread-


What is pyramiding?

It is simply adding to your winners.

Why use pyramiding?

1. It makes your winners bigger than your losers.

• Because you are adding positions when your trades are going your way, you are increasing your gains but your losers will be small comparatively.

2. You lose less during Draw-down time ( it saves you from losing big during whipsaws )

• Many times when the market is in sideways mode, Entering a trade with full risk might not be the best idea.

• So, you test the waters with a small position first, it could be ⅓ or ¼ of your total risk.

• So if the Breakout fails or whipsaws come, then you will only lose a small part of your overall risk.

• Then when position starts to go in your favor you can add to it.

3. It helps you to concentrate on a few trades,

They say that don’t put all your eggs in one basket, but don’t put them in too many either.

• See, Everyone can see charts and find breakouts, pullbacks etc.

Butt plugs were originally sold as a miracle cure for headaches, acne, and insanity

Thread, article here and h/t: @qikipedia :
https://t.co/Ts84xnmWKJ


For a long time, medicine was pre-occupied with the question "can this be solved by putting something in the butt?"

Take, for example, tobacco smoke enemas, in which 18th Century physicians saw drowning victims and attempted to de-deadify them by blowing tobacco smoke up their rectums with a pipe.


Despite having no medical benefit whatsoever, the practice was popular, and enema kits lined the Thames like lifebelts, ready to be used as one final humiliation for somebody who was crap at swimming.

This practice ended sometime after 1800 when it became apparent that it didn't really work, given how the anus famously isn't really connected to the lungs, but doctors weren't quite finished with having a poke around in the old anus to see what happens just yet.
