The best options strategy in ITC for July 2020 Expiry

Hey Folks, As you know that we have the expiry of July month. So today I’m sharing the best options strategy you can create in the last 2 week of monthly expiry.

Few things you need to keep in mind if you are initiating a live trade in last 2 weeks of monthly expiry.

  1. In the last 2 week, theta decay is very high, which can give you a good return in a very short time.
  2. But gamma will more aggressive in the last 2 weeks of the monthly expiry, so you have to monitor it very closely.
  3. If you are getting any breakout or breakdown from your breakevens then there are very few options for adjustments. So trade only if you can afford to lose that amount.
  4. If the return is high then risk will also high. So follow proper risk management plan.

Personal Suggestion: It’s better to create a wide range of strategy instead of a small range. Yes! with a wide range, you will get low premium but the probability to make that money will be very high compare to a small range and high premium. Let’s come to the best options strategy in ITC for July Expiry.
