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 20% / target 20% 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 -305.4% over 12 years (-25.4%/yr, loses money), win 47%, payoff 0.91 (avg win ₹1,475 / avg loss ₹-1,622), max drawdown -311%, worst trade ₹-7,002. 2015: ₹-14,986. 2016: ₹-22,233. 2017: ₹-21,680. 2018: ₹-27,742. 2019: ₹+826. 2020: ₹-6,355. 2021: ₹-12,069. 2022: ₹-37,554. 2023: ₹-38,365. 2024: ₹-4,638. 2025: ₹-76,245. 2026: ₹-44,319.
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.
