How our test compares
On their window we got ₹86k vs their ₹92k (within about 6%) using their flat lot size; with real lot sizes it was ₹63k.
Rules we tested
At 14:30 pick the ATM call and put; each option's range is its high from 14:30 to 09:17 next day, and a leg is bought when it breaks that high. Position stop ₹4,550, profit lock from ₹1,000 up, exit 14:30; traded only on expiry day and the day after.
Note: Restricting to these two days was chosen after an all-days version lost money; the longer history does not support it.
Method
1-minute option data, broker charges incl. STT and taxes, 1% slippage per order, historical lot sizes.
- 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.
