LOSS PER LOT - INR 7500/-
PROFIT PER LOT : INR 23000/-

This Futures position was hedged with a PE of the index.
Though we had multiple confluences , I never trade without a stop loss
Now in the case of bank nifty , the daily volatility is in the range of +-300 points , hence it did not make sense purchasing naked futures and maintaining a Stop LOSS Trigger as any normal move of bank nifty could trigger a stop loss
A PE was purchased to CAP the maximum loss per lot to 7500 /-
Now if you notice on the charts , without PE , I would've been stopped out immediately on the same day
Because the position was HEDGED , I was able to carry the trade for 4 days
Also note the margin requirements for a HEDGED position reduces significantly (Almost 1/4th)

Respect the Markets and Trade with a strict stop loss. LIVE ANOTHER DAY !! Keep This Information Handy and Happy Trading.

NOTE : HAD THIS BEEN A NAKED FUT TRADE , THE PAIN OF SEEING A NEGATIVE P&L OF 20000 /- PER LOT WOULD MAKE TRADERS TAKE EMOTIONAL AND IRRATIONAL TRADING DECISIONS. ALWAYS TRADE WITH STOP LOSS AND ENJOY WHAT THE MARKET OFFERS :-)

******* KEEP A CLOSE WATCH FOR A BREAKOUT ABOVE THE LEVEL OF 35500 AGAIN FOR BUY *****
