Nifty -- Option Strategy

Strategy – Covered Call


We expect Nifty to find support @ 5350-5400 and a pull back is seen to 5650-5700 odd levels, though a sustained move above 5700 would be a difficult task. We recommend a Covered Call Strategy where one needs to Buy 1 lot of Nifty Feb 5500 call @ 87 and Sell 1 lot of Nifty Feb 5700 call @ 27.



Recommendation:



Long/Short Option Type Expiry Strike Price Premium Quantity

Long Call Feb – 2011 5500 87 50

Short Call Feb --2011 5700 27 50



Breakeven Points:

Decider Level : 5560

It means loss is incurred only if Nifty closes below 5560 on expiry of Feb month i.e. Till Nifty stays above 5560 this strategy would be in profit



Risk/Reward:

Max Profit: 7000/-

Max Loss: Limited ( Premium paid = 60 points = 3000/- per lot )

Investment: 33350 ( Margin of 1 lot of Nifty ( 29000 ) + Call premium paid ( 5700 strike ) )

RETURNS: Upto 20.98%

Upto 251 % ( ANNUALIZED )



Traders can keep a stoploss of 5350 on closing basis on Nifty, it is advised to exit this strategy with a minimal loss if Nifty breaches 5350 on closing basis










Have a nice trading day
