BANKNIFTY Fixed Loss Option Strategy
BANKNIFTY is usually faster and more sensitive to banking-sector moves than NIFTY. A fixed-loss structure helps keep the trade defined before entry instead of reacting after volatility expands.
Preferred Defined-Risk Structures
- Bullish: bull put spread when VIX is normal/high, bull call spread when VIX is low.
- Bearish: bear call spread when VIX is normal/high, bear put spread when VIX is low.
- Neutral: iron condor only when price is inside range and VIX is not exploding.
- Event risk: use smaller size or no trade around RBI, bank results, large gap days, or sudden yield moves.
Risk Discipline
Do not take the trade if one lot already exceeds your planned loss. A trade that cannot fit the risk rule is not a fixed-loss trade for your capital.
