Not yet. unless you want to play intraday. Look for Europe and Dow today, if greek resolution in place, then rally tomorrow.

5430 is key level to be broken, Even today there was strong pullback post 5420.

You can play intraday around 5430, buy put and sell it : play with 3/4 lots.. and catch 5 points easily

Trader15- would appreciate if you could pl elaborate. Thanks...

The open interest for 5400 Put was X at 11 AM, and by 2 PM was 3X. Volume increase in Put implies, folk's are writing put's at specific strike price.

Normally traders buy put's, but someone is selling: Writer.

Put Writer can only make money when market goes in opposite direction: UP
so put value decreases and he can buy back at lower rate

So when Open interest of Put at specific strike price is increasing 3 folds: that shows confidence of Put writers, that market may move up in short term.

For example: Someone who wrote Put in morning at say Rs. 90 was anticipating upmove, and he closed in day's end at 70, making Rs. 20 intraday profit.

Market gives 15-30-40 points at a strech and specially loads of points to book from low's of day. Question is to :

1. Define when u have 5 points or 10 points in ur pocket, how do you know
whether u will get another 5 points waiting, it can go in reverse direction
too as fast as it came.

Looking back at charts is one thing: but in my practical experience
when one is in front of screen, u really dont know whether the next few
points will be in your direction or not.

2. Low: No one ever knows what the low will be especially in options. In
futures/spot, you know through technicals.

The only way to define low and trade using lows in options is to buy/write
options at technical support/resistance levels. That pays. You may
not be able to buy lowest price of option or sell highest price of option

So simple funda for options: M2M dekhne ka, jisme shirt pant lungi aa jaye
utne daam per "square off" use karne kaaa..

"Square off" : In options dont think of limit orders... Square off button takes
emotions away and helps closing
