Questions and Answers

1.

Which of the following is not a type of Derivatives?
- A.
  
  Futures
- B.
  
  Forward
- C.
  
  Swap
- D.
  
  Nifty
Correct Answer
D. Nifty

Explanation
Nifty is not a type of derivative. It is a stock market index in India that represents the performance of the top 50 companies listed on the National Stock Exchange (NSE). On the other hand, futures, forward, and swap are all types of derivatives. Futures are standardized contracts to buy or sell an asset at a predetermined price and date, while forwards are similar contracts but are customized. Swaps involve the exchange of cash flows between two parties based on a predetermined formula.

Scrips which are tradable in Futures (Derivatives) have a particular circuit limit in Spot (Cash).
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
This statement is false. Scrips that are tradable in futures (derivatives) do not have a particular circuit limit in spot (cash) markets. Circuit limits are set by stock exchanges to prevent extreme price volatility in individual stocks. These limits are applicable in the cash market and do not directly affect the futures market. Therefore, the statement is incorrect.

  Index Option
- D.
  
  Stock Option
Correct Answer
A. Index Future

Explanation
Nifty Future and Banknifty Future fall into the sub-category of Derivatives called Index Future. Index futures are contracts that allow investors to buy or sell a basket of stocks comprising an index, such as Nifty or Banknifty, at a predetermined price and date in the future. These contracts are settled in cash and are commonly used by investors to speculate on the overall direction of the stock market or to hedge their portfolio against market fluctuations.

  First Monday of Month
- B.

- C.
  
  Last Day of Month
- D.
  
  Last Thursday of Month
Correct Answer
D. Last Thursday of Month

Explanation
All stock and index futures expire on the last Thursday of the month. This is a standard practice in the financial markets to ensure that all contracts are settled and new contracts can be initiated. By having a fixed expiration date, it allows for better planning and coordination among market participants. The last Thursday of the month is chosen as it provides a reasonable amount of time for traders to close out their positions and settle any outstanding obligations before the end of the month.

- A.

These differences highlight the distinct characteristics and trading mechanisms of the spot and derivatives segments.

  SL: 81.00, TGT: 79.00/78.00
Correct Answer
A. SL: 79.20, TGT: 80.80/81.60

Explanation
The correct answer is SL: 79.20, TGT: 80.80/81.60. The stop loss (SL) is set at 79.20, which means that if the price of Dish TV Futures falls to or below 79.20, the call should be exited to limit losses.

If Infosys Future is given sell at 3000 and TGT-SL is given at 2968-3032 respectively then what will be the Lot Size of Infosys Future according to Our Risk to Reward Strategy?
- A.
  
  250
- B.
  
  500
- C.
  
  125
- D.
  
  1000
Correct Answer
C. 125

Explanation
According to the given information, the risk to reward strategy for Infosys Future is given as TGT-SL of 2968-3032. The lot size is the number of units in a contract. To determine the lot size, we need to calculate the difference between the TGT and SL values, which is 3032-2968=64. The lot size is typically a multiple of 100, and the closest multiple of 100 to 64 is 100. Therefore, the lot size of Infosys Future according to our risk to reward strategy is 100.

One client has Buying position of 5 lots of in Tata Motors Future at 300 Rs., CMP of Tata Motors is 303, then how much ROI this client will get if he books all lots at CMP? Consider 10% Margin and 1000 Lot size.
- A.
  
  15%
- B.
  
  3%
- C.
  
  10%
- D.
  
  50%
Correct Answer
C. 10%

Explanation
The client will get a 10% return on investment (ROI) if he books all lots at the current market price (CMP). This can be calculated by finding the difference between the buying price and the CMP, which is 3 Rs. (303 - 300). Since the client has a buying position of 5 lots, the total profit would be 15 Rs. (3 * 5). Considering a 10% margin, the initial investment would be 30 Rs. (300 * 5 * 0.1). Therefore, the ROI would be 10% (15 / 30 * 100).

Short Selling on Delivery Basis is possible in Stock Future Scrips.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Short selling on delivery basis is possible in stock future scrips. This means that traders can sell stocks that they do not own, with the intention of buying them back at a later date. In stock futures, the delivery of the stocks is not required immediately, allowing traders to take advantage of falling prices by selling first and buying later. This strategy is commonly used by traders to profit from a decline in stock prices. Therefore, the statement is true.
