Our paraphrase. See the video for the full explanation.

How our test compares

In index points we got +2,105 over 388 trades vs their +2,463 over 399, with most early trades matching to 0.1 point.

Rules we tested

Two back-to-back opposite-colour 15-min candles form a range; within two candles, a close below the range low is a short (we bought an ATM put). Stop at range high, target 3× risk, else exit at day end, max 2 trades/day. No strike was given; the video counts index points only.

Note: About 6 points per trade is too small to survive option decay and costs.

Method

  • 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.
