Strategy templates

Pick a shape, set its strikes below, then Load template — the trading day hasn’t started, so cards can’t open at today’s price yet. Legs stay fully editable after
Start with a structure, then edit every leg.
Set expiry and strikes, then load the selected template

Not live right now.

The trading day has not been started, so no live market data is being fetched. An operator starts it from the trading-day page.

Everything that does not need a live quote is unaffected: historical backtests, saved strategies, the option calculator and the historical chain all work normally.

How templates work

Fill only the strikes a template needs, always lowest first — extra strikes are ignored.
1 strike: long call, long put, straddle, strip, strap.
2 strikes: both vertical spreads and both ratio backspreads (lower, upper); strangle and risk reversal (put, then call); guts (call, then put — the reverse of a strangle, which is exactly what makes it a guts).
3 strikes: call/put butterfly and iron butterfly (lower wing, body, upper wing); jade lizard (short put, short call, long call); reverse jade lizard (long put, short put, short call).
4 strikes: iron condor (put-long, put-short, call-short, call-long); call/put condor (four strikes of one option type, lowest to highest).
Quantity applies to every leg; the ratio shapes (backspreads, strip, strap, and a butterfly’s body) scale their 2x leg from it. Every leg stays editable below.
Direction flips every leg’s buy/sell, which for most shapes is a differently named strategy — a flipped bull call spread is a bear call spread. Each card names its own flipped form. The two jade lizards have no flip and ignore the setting. Loading a template replaces the legs below.

Greek methodology

Delta and gamma per 1 index point, vega per 1 volatility point, theta per 1 calendar day, rho per 1 percentage point of rate — the units pricing.py documents, and the same ones the option-chain page uses. Each leg's volatility is implied from its own entry premium against the reference level above and then held fixed, so these describe the model's sensitivity at that calibration — they are not a forecast of how volatility will move.

Strategy views

The same strategy, read three ways

No price chart of the underlying here — that lives in Charting, and the “View NIFTY on Charting” link at the top of this page opens it. These three views describe THIS strategy’s own arithmetic.

Add legs to see the payoff at a range of settlement prices.

The same curve drawn beside the legs, over the same price range, read row by row. Max profit, max loss and the breakevens are NOT read off this table — they are computed analytically from the legs and shown in the payoff panel, because an extreme taken from a sampled table would depend on where the sampling happened to stop.

A finite ratio is unavailable when profit or loss is unbounded.

Premium breakdown (₹)

Premium methodology

Gross premium counts every leg without sign; net premium preserves debit or credit. Intrinsic and time value need a reference level. Brokerage, taxes and slippage are not modeled.

Probability & range

Lognormal model at expiry · not a forecast
Probability of profit
1σ range at expiry
2σ range at expiry
Probability methodology

The share of a lognormal terminal-price distribution that lands where this strategy's payoff at expiry is positive, integrated numerically over the payoff itself — so a structure that profits in more than one place, or in none, is described correctly rather than assumed to have one profitable band. It is what today's prices imply under Black-Scholes at one volatility held constant. It is not a forecast, and not a statement that this strategy is worth entering.

Strikewise IV & OI

Chain methodology

At-the-money row highlighted. Open interest is a real position count and is shown whether or not the contract traded; an implied volatility is shown only where one could actually be derived from a live two-sided quote or a real trade — a blank is a blank, never a substituted number.
