Don't you think it is taking too much of your energy?! Your other strategies are making big money with least efforts...

Hi Anusantosh - I trade all my strategies in different accounts and mkts do not remain the same in every month so while some strategies do well in some months, others do well in other months and I remain profitable overall.

Delta neutral strategy is totally opposite of 'taking energy' ... it doesnt require contineous monitoring throughout the trading day and makes money irrespective of how mkts are, but its slow and steady like a tortoise. As the risk is hedged in this strategy, my trading partners with large capital prefer this strategy over others as they are not looking for quick money (with high risk) but for steady money with low risk.

This particular month has been tough though and i have made some tweaks from next month which will allow for less adjustments hopefully. However even this month is profitable so i dont mind.

Cheers

Total 48 Trades/Adjustments in a series, that too in Bank Nifty where slippage and sudden spike is a major factor (+ Brokerage & Taxes). Shocked

Do you think, such type of Manual scalping and all time monitoring as well as frequent adjustment is really profitable in a long run?

Of course, Delta Neutral strategy is really mind blowing.

Its totally profitable ADG - many fellow traders I know are doing it and making profits every month. You can see profits in last 8 consecutive months. I do this for NF as well but dont update those trades here due to lack of time.

This month though, as I said, was an exceptional month where I had to do many adjustments to manage the delta. While last 7 months was relatively easy money, this month really tested my trading capability. I was running with a loss until mid of this month and I am glad I could beat the markets and make profits at the end of this month as well.

Regarding slippage etc, as this is delta neutral, the variance is not much and can work in your favour too. For example while I have made 108 points profit this month, some other fellow traders have made 140+ points due to slippage working in their favour. But is some other months it may work against you, in long run it averages out.

48 trades in a month is high for this strategy but happened this month only, but I don't mind it as my cost roughly comes out to 1.5 points per trader including brokerage etc as I trade with Zerodha so I am still profitable.

Around 2600 points profit in BNF and around 1100 points profit in NF in last 8 months, I would say its definitely profitable in long run.
