A Client Bought Nifty 6600 PE April 50 Qty @ 25 & Sold 6700 CE 50 Qty @ 25 What is Client's view ? :
-
Bullish
-
Neutral
-
Bearish
-
High Volatility expected
Correct Answer
A. BearishExplanation
The client's view is bearish because they bought a put option (Nifty 6600 PE) which gives them the right to sell the Nifty index at a strike price of 6600. This indicates that they expect the price of the Nifty index to decrease. Additionally, they sold a call option (Nifty 6700 CE) which gives someone else the right to buy the Nifty index at a strike price of 6700. By selling this call option, the client is betting that the price of the Nifty index will not increase above 6700. Both of these actions suggest a bearish outlook on the market.Rate this question:

Client A Bought 6500 PE Nifty April 50 Qty @ 25. Calculate BEP
-
6475
-
6525
-
6500
-
6487
Correct Answer
A. 6475Explanation
The break-even point (BEP) is the point at which the client will neither make a profit nor incur a loss. In this case, the client bought 6500 PE Nifty April 50 Qty at a price of 25. To calculate the BEP, we need to find the average cost per unit. The total cost is the quantity multiplied by the price, which is 6500 * 25 = 162,500. The average cost per unit is then calculated by dividing the total cost by the quantity, which is 162,500 / 6500 = 25. The BEP is the average cost per unit minus the price, which is 25 - 25 = 0. Therefore, the correct answer is 6475.Rate this question:

-
Neutral
-

Client A Bought 6500 PE April 50 Qty @ 25 and Client B Sold 6900 CE Nifty 50 Qty @ 25. What is the maximum Profit that they can make if position turns in their favour ?
-
Client A - Unlimited, Client B - 25
-
Client A- 25, Client B - Unlimited
-
Client A - 6425, Client B - Unlimited
-
Client A - 6475, Client B - 25
Correct Answer
A. Client A - 6475, Client B - 25Explanation
Client A bought a put option (6500 PE) and Client B sold a call option (6900 CE). Both options have a strike price of 25. If the position turns in their favor, Client A can make unlimited profit because the put option gives them the right to sell the underlying asset (in this case, Nifty) at the strike price, which is lower than the market price. Client B, on the other hand, can only make a profit of 25 because the call option gives them the right to buy the underlying asset at the strike price, which is higher than the market price. Therefore, the maximum profit they can make is Client A - 6475 and Client B - 25.Rate this question:
