For the first week of June, I had predicted that Nifty would go until 16450. However, the target was hit on Monday itself. I was carrying with me a bad position in form of 16850 CE. This obviously went deep red on Monday opening.
I deployed my usual strategy of selling ITM options for averaging. I thought I was averaging slowly and steadily. I was not using my home-made calculator though. Later, I found that I had sold too many ITM options too soon. Now my overall P&L was in loss of more than Rs. 1 lakh. I could not do anything as I had exhausted my funds.
There was no choice but to carry forward the problem to Tuesday. Luckily, Tuesday was a gap-down opening and I exited all positions at minimal loss. The rest of the week was consolidation which helped me in earning 1% for the week.
But I am still useless without my excel calculators. I must use them daily.
