Strategy: Nifty Bull Call Spread

Rationale:

  • Nifty has resumed its upward trend while it made a putative swing low on last Thursday at 24,462. 
  • The re-ignition of the momentum in the broader markets, especially seen in the last couple of days, is inkling a potential to propel Nifty towards 25,500 levels. 
  • However, given the prevailing volatility, a risk-limited Bull Call Spread is an optimal strategy. 
  • It offers a favourable reward-to-risk ratio, aligning with expectations of a moderate upward move over the next few days.
