Expiry-day strangle strategy walkthrough

Create a strategy 2 views

This video walkthrough builds a strangle strategy with a fixed stop-loss that trades on expiry day. It covers:

  1. How to select the expiry in the Condition Builder and Position Builder (Expiry Fx).
  2. Why you put 0 in Set Exit to avoid a loop.

Important: the weekly expiry schedule has changed

The original version of this article listed a different index expiring each weekday (Midcap Nifty/Bankex, Finnifty, Bank Nifty, Nifty, Sensex). That schedule no longer applies. Today, weekly expiry exists only for NIFTY 50 and SENSEX. All other index underlyings have monthly expiry only.

So an “every day expiry” strategy is no longer possible on Indian indices. You can still use the same technique on the NIFTY and SENSEX weekly expiries, using Current Week Expiry with offset 0 for the current week.

Test in Live Offline first. This is an educational example, not a trading recommendation.
