What the video claims

On the index, 2014–24: about 581 trades, 70% wins, profit factor 2.4.

Our paraphrase. See the video for the full explanation.

How our test compares

In index points we got 603 trades, 66% wins and profit factor 2.23 vs their 581, 70.6% and 2.40, so the signal reproduces; the option version is thinner (profit factor about 1.6).

Rules we tested

Buy at the close when the day closes green and futures volume is above its 3-day average; exit 10–15 minutes after the next open, no stop or target. The video gives no strike or expiry, so we used the ATM weekly call, a 15:24 signal with a 15:25 entry and a 09:25 exit, and NIFTY futures volume.

Note: The video's advice to buy only when implied volatility is low reduced profits in our test. One gap-down night can cost ₹15–20k.

Method

1-minute index, futures and option data, entry at the 15:25 open and exit at the 09:25 open, broker charges incl. STT and taxes, 0.25% slippage per order.

  • 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.
