Moh - agree it will interesting to see where it gets to. May be the 5900CEs will be tested today.

Dear Girish, Shai--Can we take this as 80% rule and expect 5987 today??

Girish Desai said...

bizagra - Expiry day, we try to trade light and 80% rule may not work out because there will be wild moves based on option writers positions.

So on expiry day, better trade light and may be 50% of your normal positions is what Shai has been saying for sometime. And I totally agree with that suggestion.

Mo K,

I was away for a couple of meetings but having traded in few stocks around/on expiry day in the past, I can tell one thing - Even if this market seems to have bottomed out, the lows made today in NOV expiry (5791 and 11612) may very well be revisited in DEC series.

So far May 2010 correction has been only one correction that had bottomed out before expiry. Rest of the corrections (Jun 2009/Ocr 2009/Jan 2009) have all bottomed out in the first one or two weeks of the next series. Lets see how this one works out.
