23-Dec-2024 Trading Scenarios:

1. Gap Up Opening (+200 points or more):
   If Bank Nifty opens above 51,272 but below 51,420, this range acts as an immediate resistance zone. Watch for bearish rejection patterns like a double top or bearish engulfing to initiate short trades targeting 51,097-50,872.
   If prices sustain above 51,420, the sentiment shifts bullish. Consider long trades above this level with targets of 51,832-52,000. Use a stop loss at 51,250 to manage risk effectively.
   
   
2. Flat Opening:
   A flat opening near 50,872-50,664 suggests consolidation. Wait for a breakout above 51,097 for long trades targeting 51,272-51,420.
   Alternatively, a breakdown below 50,664 may trigger bearish momentum. Short trades can be initiated below this level, targeting 50,069-49,800. Use hourly candle closes to confirm breakdown or breakout for improved accuracy.
   
   
3. Gap Down Opening (-200 points or more):
   A gap down below 50,664 puts immediate focus on 50,069 as a critical support level. Look for bullish reversal patterns (e.g., hammer or morning star) within this zone to initiate long trades targeting 50,664-50,872.
   If prices fail to hold 50,069, expect extended bearish pressure, with short trade targets at 49,800-49,500. Maintain a stop loss at 50,150 to protect capital.
   
   

Risk Management Tips for Options Trading:

• []Prefer buying options in volatile markets instead of selling to limit risk.
  []Use spreads (e.g., bull call spreads or bear put spreads) for defined risk-reward.
  []Monitor implied volatility (IV) levels; higher IV suggests premium decay risk for sellers.
  []Cap exposure to a fixed percentage of your trading capital per trade.
