Verdict
Real option-buying backtest. Decoded entry: an opening-range breakout on NIFTY 10-min bars → buy the ATM weekly CE (long) / PE (short), stop 30% / target 60% of premium, square-off by 15:15. Priced on real 1-minute NIFTY option premiums (GFDL, 2015–2026 — every tick of theta, IV crush and gamma is inside these prices), real charges and spread. The video trades BANKNIFTY; NIFTY weeklies are the closest instrument we have real premiums for, so the same rules were run on NIFTY.
1,945 trades on ₹1L: net -321.7% over 12 years (-26.8%/yr, loses money), win 38%, payoff 1.44 (avg win ₹2,996 / avg loss ₹-2,082), max drawdown -340%, worst trade ₹-10,428. 2015: ₹-7,744. 2016: ₹-31,281. 2017: ₹-29,850. 2018: ₹-11,605. 2019: ₹+4,190. 2020: ₹-14,033. 2021: ₹-46,242. 2022: ₹-47,834. 2023: ₹-86,472. 2024: ₹+64,088. 2025: ₹-69,115. 2026: ₹-45,821.
Option buying is convex — low win-rates are normal; the question is whether winners outrun the premium bleed. Backtested on 12 years of minute-level premium data (2015–2026; monthly contracts before 2019 — weeklies didn't exist; constant 65-unit lot); entries tested intraday as taught. Flagged for human review.
