So I'm buying Nifty puts for 4400, for August - which will expire next week, so it's a short term trade. The puts were last traded at 139.05, and I will put 40% of hte net portfolio on it - that's 20L. Since each contract (50 Nifty) is 2.2L in size, I'll be buying 8 contracts - or 400 Nifty puts.
The cost is 55,000 and I expect to close this trade next week. Let's see how it goes.
Disclosure: Short the Mini-Nifty today. Just to check something out.
