How our test compares
Our signals matched the video on every example day shown; the option P&L on those days was mixed.
Rules we tested
Mark the high and low of the 14:55–15:00 5-min candle; if the next candle breaks the high by ~4 points buy a call, the low a put. Stop at the other end of the candle, skip candles larger than ~55 points, exit at 15:15. We assumed ATM strike, nearest expiry.
Note: After the closing session moved in Aug 2026, late-day index rules no longer behave the same.
Method
1-min data, fills at the next minute's open, real broker charges incl. STT and taxes, 0.25% slippage.
- 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.
