SmartInvestor : Markets have remained volatile in a narrow range with a negative bias. What are the trends seen on the first day of the May F&O series? Further, what is your strategy for Nifty options with volatility likely to pick up going forward?
    
Nitin Murarka : Nifty rollover is around 59% lower than three months average of 65% however market wide rollover is around 79% which is in line with three month average of 80%. Rollover cost suggests long rollover hence we should adapt by on dip strategy. In the current series highest call concentration is seen in 7000 call option and highest put concentration is seen at 6000 strike put. Call concentration of 7000- suggest that there is buying position in 7000 call as current month is the election results month. Most of the derivative and technical indicators are positive as of now hence we should adapt buy of dip strategy. There is possibility of market touching 7100 before election results. If for any reason Nifty gives dip of 70-100 points I would recommend buying 7000 call option.
