 Index Option Strategies – Buying Calls & Puts for Fixed Profit

Options trading offers various strategies to limit risk and maximize profit. One such approach is using call and put options together to get a fixed profit or reduce risk in volatile markets. Here are some effective strategies:

 1. Long Straddle Strategy (Profit in High Volatility)

 How It Works?

• Buy one ATM (At-The-Money) Call Option

• Buy one ATM Put Option

• Both options should have the same strike price & expiry

 Best When?

• High volatility expected (before earnings, events, budget, elections, etc.)

• No bias on market direction (up or down)

 Profit & Loss

Profit = If the index moves significantly (up or down), one option will gain more than the other loses.
Loss = If the index stays near the strike price (low volatility), both premiums decay.

Example:

• Nifty is at 22,000, you buy:

  • Call Option (Strike 22,000) @ ₹200

  • Put Option (Strike 22,000) @ ₹200

  • Total cost = ₹400

• If Nifty moves above 22,400 or below 21,600, you make a profit.

 2. Long Strangle Strategy (Less Cost, Higher Profit)

 How It Works?

• Buy one OTM (Out-of-The-Money) Call Option

• Buy one OTM Put Option

• Both options have different strike prices but same expiry

 Best When?

• Market is expected to become highly volatile, but cheaper than a Straddle.

 Profit & Loss

Profit = If the index moves significantly beyond either strike price.
Loss = If the index stays within the strikes, you lose both premiums.

Example:

• Nifty is at 22,000, you buy:

  • Call Option (Strike 22,200) @ ₹100

  • Put Option (Strike 21,800) @ ₹100

  • Total cost = ₹200

• If Nifty moves above 22,500 or below 21,500, you make a profit.

 3. Iron Condor Strategy (Limited Profit but High Win Rate)

 How It Works?

• Sell one OTM Call Option

• Buy one higher OTM Call Option

• Sell one OTM Put Option

• Buy one lower OTM Put Option

 Best When?

• Low volatility expected (Sideways Market)

• Get a fixed profit in a range

 Profit & Loss

Profit = If the index stays within a defined range, both sold options’ premiums decay.
Loss = If the index moves beyond the range, but losses are limited.

Example:

• Nifty is at 22,000, you create an Iron Condor:

  • Sell Call (22,200) @ ₹100

  • Buy Call (22,400) @ ₹50

  • Sell Put (21,800) @ ₹100

  • Buy Put (21,600) @ ₹50

  • Total Credit = ₹100

• If Nifty stays between 21,800 and 22,200, you keep ₹100 profit.

 4. Butterfly Spread (Fixed Profit, Low Risk)

 How It Works?

• Buy one ITM Call

• Sell two ATM Calls

• Buy one OTM Call

 Best When?

• You expect low to moderate movement in the index.

 Profit & Loss

Profit = If the index closes near the ATM strike price, you get max profit.
Loss = If the index moves too far in either direction.
