Full transcript (103 words)
Entry: At exactly 09:20 AM, the bot checks the Nifty spot price, rounds to the nearest 50 to find the ATM strike, and sells the Call and Put. Hedge: It immediately buys OTM wings exactly 400 points away (HEDGE_DISTANCE = 400) to cap risk and reduce margin requirements. Individual Stop-Loss: It places a 30% stop-loss on the sold Call and Put individually. Breakeven Trailing: If one side hits the 30% stop-loss, it instantly modifies the stop-loss of the surviving leg down to its entry price, ensuring the remaining position cannot lose money. Exit: At 03:15 PM, it squares off all remaining open positions.
