How our test compares with the video

For 2024 we got ₹1.31 lakh gross vs their ₹1.05 lakh with matching drawdown (−₹18.8k vs −₹18.4k), and monthly shapes match closely; ours runs ~20% higher due to exit time and stop fill assumptions.

Worth knowing: The percentage claim is on a ~₹7.9k margin base, which understates the capital really needed; maxDD shown is 2026's.

Year by year

1 lot, rules as taught, after costs.

The rules we tested

At 9:35 pick the call and the put whose premium is the lowest still ≥ ₹50; buy each when it rises 14% above its 9:35 price, stop 20%, trailing the stop 0.75% for every 1% gain, exit by 15:29. After a stop, one re-entry at ATM on a +160% move with a 30% stop. We assumed a 75-unit lot and stop-first when high and low hit in the same minute.

Method and Reality Score

Full method: how we test

1-min data, real broker charges incl. STT and taxes, 0.25% slippage per order, fixed 75 qty.

  • 1-minute historical NSE/BSE option and futures data; each video's rules coded exactly as taught, with stated assumptions where the video left a gap.
  • Signals on a candle's close are filled at the next minute's open (unless the rules say otherwise); stops and targets are checked against each minute's high and low.
  • Real broker charges, STT, exchange fees, stamp duty and GST deducted on every order; lot size as it was on each trade date.
  • Results are per lot unless stated. No leverage, compounding or position sizing beyond the video's own rules.

Reality Score (0–100) = claim match (up to 40: matches 40, partly 25, fails after costs 8, not reproduced 0) + after-cost profit (up to 30: zero if it loses; more when total profit is large versus the worst drawdown) + steadiness (up to 30: share of profitable years, plus 5 if the latest year made money).
