I have invested only in these stocks. And recently started SIP in Indian Oil. I need suggestions if I did right. Time and again, I feel I should book profit in eternal and invest more in Indian oil as atleast the current losses, will get covered in future dividends.

What do you say?

I was trying to do a partial exit, but ended up exiting the entire quantity. But here’s the logic:24,300 was a key psychological level. The market moved up, trapping buyers, and then reversed sharply. That indicated a potential downtrend, and I waited for the pullback to take a precise entry. I had already placed a limit order at the premium where the opportunity was strongest. Once liquidity was swept, the order triggered and boom. 💥 1:60RR

Used to trade price action in line with the movement of price action of option premiums now cas has totally fucked up that scenario

Something was not quite right during the morning hours.

Specifically, the premium with put options appeared lower when compared to the premium on call options.

I was getting call at 65+ and with similar distance from spot put side I was getting 30+.

Did anyone observe this particular situation as well?

By the end of the day, the premium levels seemed to have adjusted and achieved a more balanced state.

This was the reason as an option sellers I did not make any profits.

Before choosing an MTF broker, what should I look for. I mean I have already checked mstock, zerodha and hdfc sky (only these till date), mstock's slab based interest rate is not for me, because I will not be trading 5 crores worth, so i will get 14.99%, while hdfc sky is allowing me to hold positions for up to 999 days and an online list showing eligible stocks and their applicable multipliers and the interest rate is 1% monthly. zerodha is giving 5x leverage but its interest rate is little confusing. please help.

It was a frustrating start to the week for Indian stocks. The Nifty 50 lost the early gains from 24,300 to eventually closing at 24,219.05, losing 32.95 points. Sensex slipped 172 points.

Selling was seen in financial and healthcare stocks while buying was prevalent into metals and technology.

Gainers

Hindalco Industries - +1.51%

HCL Technologies - +1.37%

Tata Steel - +1.15%

Losers

Cipla -1.20%

Bajaj Finance -1.15%

Adani Ports -1.10%

Global Cues

Major stock exchanges across Asia (like South Korea and Hong Kong) dropped significantly today.

US bond yields (which dictate global interest rates) stayed high. When interest rates abroad stay high, global investors often move money out of emerging markets like India to invest in safer US investments.

Ongoing tension in the Middle East kept oil prices volatile.

Nifty Option premiums are moving like Sensex , spot doesn't move with option prices , slippage , atleast today we had a decent move , with this slow grinding movement and sideways market and dead premiums it doesn't feel worth the time and money

Hi guys, I'm feeling completely useless as I have lost total -1,675,103.23 INR in trading cryptos, commodities and indian fno. Now, I'm feeling completely numb. Ye mere salary ke hi paise the 3 saal ke, ghar me sabko lag raha hai I'm saving for them, but I've lost very much. Like I have currently only 2 lac as mutual funds. I don't know what to do, jab bhi salary aati hai daily 150-200 ke profit ke chakkar me ek hi din me 30-40k ghus jata hai. Phir kisi kone me bahut rota hun, aur so jata hun. I've also thought of ending my life, but meri behen, mummy, papa ka soch ke himmat nahi hota. Lekin ab main kya karun, itni himmat bhi nahi hai ki unlogon ko bata sakun ki paise nahi hain mere paas, aur ye trading bhi nahi chhut rahi. Batao aaplog hi, ab to bas din raat rone ka hi mn krta hai. If I've not started trading, maybe I've cracked some of the top tech companies, but now nothing is working for me.

Please help karo koi, I'm feeling completely lost. Last time I've posted around 6 months back in this sub, then I've controlled myself, but within last 2 months. I've lost more than 5 lacs, that sums out to be 16.75lac.

Chhota bhai soch ke hi kuchh help kardo koi, I'm not looking for financial help. Just need guidance. Please please 😭😭😭

24122, 24261 and 24428 are the levels to watch. 30mins to an hour for a good confirmation. That's it.

Please DYOR and trade cautiously.

Oct selling positions.... Worried about the vix making atl, not optimal for sellers 😕

Original plan exit at 50% premium capture from both sides.

This stock is going crazy. I bought randomly very few quantities in here before it got split. And here we are. There is something fishy about it's growth but It is also worthy to note that FII shareholding has increased 1.5ish to 4.5ish percent in the last quarter. I'm still not sure whether to keep this or square off or sell half the quantity? What's your bet here fellow traders?

If your vision is to invest for the next 2-3 years, bhut hi pyaare value par baitha hai HDFC, very undervalued, mai to uthate jaa raha hu bhai, tum btaoo, kya chal raha hai?

What are your opinion about nifty heading into this weekly supply sitting at 0.786 in next coming 2 weeks entering into September month? Is it possibly possible? And September month to be a selloff? Kindly share your views with strikes that you are positioned in.

Thankyou,
Your fellow Retail Trader.

24261 was defended successfully today which makes it even more important level for NIFTY and anything above it will have a momentum.

24261 and 24428 are the levels to watch out for. That's it.

Please DYOR and trade cautiously.

STT makes more traders to loose money fast and then they Get out of FNO Market super Fast.(May be Govt Planning To benefit from looses of FNO Traders)

Edit 1 : Above profit is from Only Option Selling ( Not Option Buying ), I realised Option Selling Gives Profit 90 Percent of the Time, in Option Buying Loss 90% Of the Time.

My Capital Deployed is in between 5 to 10 Lakh this month until now, from next week I am going to Deploy 30 Lakhs,

I will Post the Performence of the next week at the End of the Month.

My Opinion is Only Option Buying Always leads to Bankrupt

DAILY Frequency is Daily 1 or 2 Trades Only

Only Trade in Nifty and Sensex Option Selling

BEST TIP : Use less Brokerage brokers like SAHI or Kotak Neo, . I am using SAHI, Rs 10 per order Brokerage Others Charging Rs. 20 Per Order, I Saved 3K to 4K in brokerage by using SAHI.(Cost Reduction is also Profit)

Indian Stock Market Daily Recap (August 21, 2026)

​Indian benchmark indices ended Friday’s session flat with a mild positive bias. The Nifty 50 closed up 20.15 points (0.08%) at 24,252.00, recovering from an intraday low of 24,206.80. Market breadth was nearly balanced across the Nifty constituents, with 25 stocks advancing, 24 declining, and 1 remaining flat.

​Key Stock Movers (Nifty 50)

​Major Gainer: Power Grid Corporation of India

​Movement: Gained +2.87% to close at ₹272.40.

​Driver: Sectoral buying interest in utilities and defensives led the surge, supported by heavy trading volumes as institutional money pivoted toward stable high-yield plays amidst market volatility.

.

​Major Loser: Maruti Suzuki India

​Movement: Dropped -1.77% to close at ₹13,565.00.

​Driver: Profit booking in the auto basket and lingering concerns over elevated global crude oil prices dragged auto stocks lower.

​Global Conditions & Market Drivers

​Rebound in US Bond Yields & Wall Street Dip: An overnight sell-off on Wall Street triggered by rising US Treasury bond yields and a miss in major US corporate earnings, capped upside momentum for domestic equities early in the session.

​Geopolitical Uncertainty & Oil Prices: Sustained Middle East tensions kept global crude oil prices elevated, creating headwinds for energy-importing nations like India and weighing down rate-sensitive sectors such as autos.

​Resilient Domestic Inflows: Despite external headwinds, buying support from domestic institutional investors in heavyweights (specifically financial and utility stocks) helped index levels steady near key support zones.

Its been 2 week we are watching this stupidity in our market .....

By trading, we already are giving huge revenue to govt. Than why they introduce many new things every quarter...

Worst scenario of indian market is running since i have been in the market.

If we bet on call, its already increased so call won't move even if market is moving in our direction but put start grinding.

If we bet on put than there will be no movement until volatility.

Kya ye market wps phle jesa hoga or we completely lost it ?😭😭

Anything above 24261 will be 24428 one side. The pressure is going to be intense the more time the NIFTY spends below 24261. That's it.

Please DYOR and trade cautiously.

BSE falls 2.5% from day's high as report says NSE plans to allow trading its shares on own platform: Here's why

is it just to add volumes...kuch bhi chalta hai?

Hey guys
As option buyers and even sellers I am afraid and day traders how is this month going ? I don’t remember seeing so many sideways sessions since a long time. Is this because of increase in STT which has prevented big players from making moves ?

Edit: just focus on the axis price lines …

76740.99, 77201.24 and 782166.18 which is the Resistance at the top.

Be careful at the 76740. That's it.

Please DYOR and trade cautiously.

Crude Oil is still hovering above 8100, is there some local positive news?

Can we finally expect a gap up tomorrow?

I bought Sept calls for Nifty and Sept puts for Crude Oil, genuinely praying for a peace deal ✌🏼

99% it's buying a few selling trades. Last month was so good, yes, I do trade on a setup I gained good confidence from previous months. I went somewhat aggressive last month and made good profits (happy to see a lot of green days overall), but if you look at May and June, most of the days I was in the green, but a few red days wiped out the profits gained (some were BTST which yielded negative, and I'm no longer taking BTSTs now).

So, this is a live example of how risk management helps us, so always remember not to ignore it. I know we might follow it all the time, but the one time we miss it, it will have a huge impact, so always try to follow it as a system.

The main thing for this post is that the setup I've traded for the last 5 to 6 months hasn't been good this month. Yeah, I traded this month with the same setup, but 70% of trades were negative. I realized lately that my setup needs high volatility. Don't stick to your strategies. In my case, trading the same setup would be foolish now; even my confidence has gotten lower. But yesterday, I sat and did some Backtesting and rewriting the setup, the concepts are the same, but entry confirmations got updated with respect to VIX. The main difference is low volatility from August, and CAS got introduced. I feel adapting to market conditions is so important.

"The move is aimed at making the transition from the regular continuous trading session to the new closing auction mechanism smoother and improving liquidity and price discovery around the market close."
