Market Secrets - Where should I start?

Welcome to Market Secrets Trading family.!

We are very different from all the telegram channels out here. We don't provide any update during Live Markets. So go through this post fully to understand what we offer.

Why can't you provide live updates? 
2 Reasons:
  1. We(Admins) are also traders and we need to have full focus on the terminal. Also, providing live update is a distraction.
  2. What is the point in giving live updates if we can provide the exact levels which we will be using for trading even before market opens. Anyway, we will be using same entry and arget during live market. So there is clearly no need to give live updates. Moreover, we don't believe in making you wait for SL/Target after giving you an entry point. You should know everything about the trade before you get into it and that's why we don't provide any live updates.


How am I supposed to trade without live updates?
Just follow the levels published in the channel for Index & Stock Trading. We are using the exact same levels ourselves.

What do you offer on daily basis?
  1. We provide precise Index Trading Levels for Nifty & Bank Nifty on daily basis which can be used for Future/Options trading directly
  2. We provide 4 stocks for Intraday Trading with proper SL & Target.


What is the purpose of listing down the stocks under 52 Week High Low Category?
We have published a free intraday/positional trading strategy using 52 Week High Low Data. It is available in YouTube for everyone to Learn & Trade. If you are looking for mastering a strategy, I would suggest to try this out. Purpose of listing down the stocks under 52 Week High Low Category is to ensure that whatever list you have prepared yourself based on this strategy matches with my list. This is published everyday to ensure that the list you have is the right one.

What else does your Team offer through telegram?
  1. We publish monthly levels file at the beginning of every month. Basically this file will have list of all the FNO stocks and their positional trading levels for that particular month. If you are a positional trader, this file is your treasure. More than 1000 people are already using this file on daily basis.
  2. We provide multibagger intraday option calls occasionally as well.

We have shared our strategies on Intraday Trading in Cash/Futures, positional trading using monthly levels file and various option strategies for regular and consistent profits.

How and Why Max Pain changes/moves?

Max Pain Theory:

The theory of options pain stems as a corollary to the belief – “90% of the options expire worthless, hence option writers/sellers tend to make money more often, more consistently than the option buyers”.

Now if this statement is true, then we can make a bunch of logical deductions –


  1. At any point only one party can make money i.e either the option buyers or option sellers, but not both. From the above statement, it is clear that the sellers are the ones making money.
  2. If option sellers tend to make maximum money, then it also means that the price of the option on expiry day should be driven to a point where it would cause least amount of loss to option writers.
  3. If point 2 is true, then it further implies that option prices can be manipulated, at least on the day of expiry.
  4. If point 3 is true, then it further implies that there exists a group of traders who can manipulate the option prices, at least on the day of expiry.
  5. If such a group exists then it must be the option writers/sellers since it is believed that they are the ones who make maximum money/consistently make money trading options.

Now considering all the above points, there must exist a single price point at which, if the market expires, then it would cause least amount of pain to the option writers (or cause maximum amount of pain to option buyers).

If one can identify this price point, then it’s most likely that this is the point at which markets will expire. The ‘Option Pain’ theory does just this – identify the price at which the market is likely to expire considering least amount of pain is caused to option writers.

How to calculate Max Pain/Option Pain:

  1. For each strike prices, calculate loss to option sellers on calls and puts side if the stock or index expires at that particular strike price
  2. Add the value of loss from calls and puts side, which is called as Max Pain Data
  3. Now the strike with Minimum value will be your Max Pain/Option Pain Strike and that is where the stock/index will expire.


You don't have to do the calculation manually, You can download the option pain calculator from the description section of the below video in youtube.

Why Max Pain Moves?
So whenever Open interest changes, there will be change in the pain value. If there is a significant change in open interest, then max pain will shift from one strike to another. Watch the video for more detailed information.




Watch our YouTube videos at https://www.youtube.com/c/MarketSecrets to learn how to trade options & how to use Max Pain data to take positions.

Rules for using Intraday Cash Trading Levels

Intraday Cash Trading Levels:

Due to lot of requests, we have started posing Intraday Cash Trading Levels in our telegram channel on daily basis. These levels are not trading recommendations but the ones that I personally use for my trading on daily basis, so I'm sharing the same with you. You should do your own research on it before taking the trades.

We post the trading levels even before the market opens for the day and we follow the levels very closely. If you are going to trade based on our levels, then you should follow the rules mentioned below to real full benefits

1) All Levels are cash Trading levels, don't ever use it for Trading in Futures.
2) Don't enter any trade before 9.20 AM
3) Use 5 Minute Candlestick chart for entry and exit. 
4) Enter long if 5 minute candle of the stock closes above the long Entry price (use 3 min candle between 9.20-9.45 AM)
5) Enter shorts if 5 minute candle of the stock closes below the short Entry price (use 3 min candle between 9.20-9.45 AM)
6) SL should be 5 Minute candle closing below SL level for longs and closing above SL level for shorts.
7) Trail SL to cost when stock moves to Target 1, change SL to Target 1 when price moves to Target 2 and so on
8) If target 2 is hit and if price comes back to entry level, re-enter afresh. You can re-enter same levels any number of times.
9) Stop re-entry when the script hits SL. Eg: if long side of the script hits SL during first trade or during re-entry, never enter that script on long side again throughout the day. But you can enter at short side, if the level comes.
10) Always follow same positional sizing throughout the month, use our sizing calculator without fail. Also capture all the trades in your trade log.

Note: Words highlighted in BOLD are very very important.! 


As always, paper trade the script for a week or 2, so that you can clarify if you have any queries. Don't ever play with real money, I don't like losses, even if it is one rupee.

Option Trading Mistakes that you should avoid:

Lack of understanding options: Many traders jump into option trading without really understanding the reasons behind the movement of options or the maths behind it. Little attention is paid to details like how much does an option move with respect to the underlying share or index, the Greeks that are used for calculation of option prices. Generally few traders know which strike price will offer the best risk reward trading opportunity is case of a small move or large ones.

Going for Jackpots: The beauty of trading in options on Expiry is that you enter in a highly leveraged position with a limited downside risk scenario as the premium paid is the maximum loss which is also cheapest due to almost negligible time\other values in option premium. This may look like a jackpot, but it is like a lottery. You will never win at the end.!

Buying out-of-the-money options: Lack of understanding options results in retail traders buying options which are out of the money for the simple reason that they are cheap. An occasional win trade results in the trader getting fixated to buying out of the money options. In most cases even when the trader is right in his trade he loses money in the out-of-the-money trade since it requires a very sharp and fast move for these options to become profitable. It has been found out that trading in out of the money options is one of the biggest reasons for option trader loses.

Not having an exit plan: Traders lose money because they do not know when to exit from an option position even if they are right. The fact that holding on to a position as time passes, erodes the value of the option is rarely understood. Similarly since the amount involved in options is small traders do not trigger the stop losses. They tend to hold to the trade in the hope that a move in their direction will result in a profitable exit. Ones an option goes out of the money as the underlying stock or index moves away from it, it would require a big move for it to come back to its breakeven level. 

No clue of an event calendar: Option prices tend to over-react when an event is approaching. Investors read the rising value in options as a sign of a big move in its direction.

Writing options without proper risk management: Many times novice trader tries to behave like a professional trader and gets in the act of writing option where returns are limited while risk is unlimited. But he imitates the pro only partially. While a professional trader is either properly hedged in his position or keeps an iron tight risk management system of stop losses in case of a move against his position, a retail trader leaves his option writing position open. It just takes one wrong trade in this direction to wipe out months of gains for the trader. 

Lack of understanding of time decay: Another big factor that plays against a retail trader is lack of understanding of time decay on option prices. For as option price to rise the underlying stock or index needs a move in line with the option bet and fast. A grinding move plays against the buyer of an option. As time passes options lose value faster. Many retail traders hold on to their trade or take new bets close to the expiry of the market, because option prices are cheaper during this period. But most trades close to the expiry period turn out to be losing ones, unfortunately a novice trader holds on to his position since the amount involved is small. It’s these seemingly small loses are what cause the most damage to a novice trader.

Option Max Pain Theory - How to use it for maximum gains?

What is “max pain” in options trading?

Options Max Pain Theory suggests, “On option expiration day, the underlying stock price often moves toward a point that brings maximum loss to option buyers.”

It’s a well-known fact that most options trading volume is made up of hedged positions from large institutions. Hedge funds, prop funds, FII’s, DII’s, pension funds - they all hedge their large positions using options and make up most options trading volume.

Since these institutions have so much money on the line, it makes sense for them to try to manipulate (move) markets to their advantage - if they can.


How would they do this?

Well, what if it turns out that if the Index closed at a certain price on expiry day, hedge funds/institutions would stand to benefit tremendously - doesn’t it make sense that hedge funds will try to move the Index in order to maximize their gain (and maximize your loss/pain)?


Understanding Max Pain

So we know that the theory stems from the idea that large institutions will attempt to move the Underlying to a certain price in order to maximize their profits.

The natural next question, is, what price do they move it to, and why? In order to get to that, you need to understand an important fact.


Most Options Buyers Lose Money

Mostly due to a concept known as time decay, most options buyers lose money. It doesn’t matter whether you’re buying a call option or a put option - due to time decay, you’re probably going to lose money. In India, around 90% of Options buyers don’t make money.

Since we have established that institutions are writing (selling) options, they’re profiting - but in order to maximize your pain, they want you to lose the maximum amount of money.


In the Money, At the Money, and Out of the Money Options

In order for an Option buyer to profit, the option needs to expire ITM (in the money). If the option expires At the Money or Out of the Money, the Options buyer will not profit.

Since institutions want you (the Options buyer) to lose money, they want to minimize the number of options contracts that are In the Money.

Therefore, they are looking to maximize the number of contracts that are ATM and OTM.

So, order to get to Max Pain, institutions will move the underlying towards a strike price wherein they can get the maximum number of contracts (measured through Open Interest) that do not expire ITM.


How to use Options Max Pain Calculator Excel Sheet:

1) Download and save the file in your machine.

2) Open the Excel file, if there is any request for "Enable Editing" or "Enable Content", Click that and provide access as described in the video.

3) To calculate max pain, move to Data tab at the top and click refresh.

4) Whenever you need current data, click refresh.

5) Refresh needs to be done separately for Nifty & BankNifty Data by keeping that particular sheet opened.
