SBI 2050 Oct call @ 247

Hi all,

I bought SBI 2050 Oct call @ 245. Please let me know if I can exercise this option on the expiry date. Or does it automatically get exercised if I dont sell it?

Please clarify.

Regards,

Hi Sridhga, once you see good rate, just square-off at the earliest. Because of time-delay, the more long you keep, the chances of loosing value are higher.

Did you noticed price change, it is now 209.75, you are loosing around 37.25 per option. Check rate first thing in morning, and try to EXIT at the earliest to minimize further loss. Holding naked options over-night are risky business.

however if it goes in-the-money ...then there is little impact of time decay.

what mean by naked position ?

Any position that is not hedged from the market is called a Naked position... Suppose u buy a Cal of XYZ in anticipation of the stock going up and it goes the other way than u have no protection... Hence the naked call
