There is a little pressure to collect premiums as there will be post-budget-IV-collapse.

Selling a strangle here...
Sold 200 units 80CE @ 68 = 13600
Sold 200 units 75CE @ 56 = 11200
Collected: 24800;

================================================

Paid: 167*50*30 = 250500
Present Value: 108*50*30 = 162000;
-------------
-88500

NF = (7790-7686)*50*15 = 78000;
-------------------------------
M2M: -10500

Sold 78CE July 129*50 = 6450 (148)
Sold 77CE July 185*50 = 9250 (206)
Sold 77CE July 125*50 = 6250 (206)
-------------------------------
Net M2M = 11450
If July ends above 78, which it probably will, then would sell the Futures to cover for loss due to the above CEs closing ITM.


-------
Adjustments:

1) 75PE July SOLD
156*50=7800; (55)

2) 76PE July SOLD
175*100=17500 (80)
--------
Collected: 25300
80/75 Strangle Collected : 24800;
Total: 50100;

=====================

Overall it looks profitable. As of now, if a capital of 10L, roughly, were to be considered employed, then interest return is decent.

Have been nursing a sold strangle of 78/75. Credit was 175;

Bot protection of a Bull Call 80/82 at a debit of 45; Lowering BEP to 7930
Will square it off if price does not capture 8000. Will watch the options chain for max OI shifting above 80CE.


Sold a favourable Bull Put of 78/77 at a credit of 40; If price goes up, then I will retain this 40 credit and hence raise BEP to 7990; Near Breakeven. More importantly, if price comes down I will book a loss, which is what i want as this will increase the chances of retaining the original credit of 175 from the sold 78/75 strangle.

Point of action will be Nifty Spot touching 7650, right in the middle of 78/75 strangle. Which is when I will square off 80/82 and 78/77 both at a loss.

If there is a 200 point upmove it will be a great opportunity to rollover to the next month with profit.

Made a mess of this trying to make adjustments. Exited it near breakeven.

A sharp fall in option prices, rending July Options as poor choices for selling. Even Aug ATM PE is barely 100.

Had forseen it and had sold 25K worth, but apparently that wasn't enough. Selling all 15 Lots of 80CE at 65 was probably the best thing to do.

Whatever was sold worked well.
