Intraday Bank Nifty Option Trade
Recommended Time Frame: The 15-minute (15M) time frame is ideal for intraday Bank Nifty option trades. This timeframe balances noise reduction with timely entry and exit signals.
Key Considerations:
Monitor key support and resistance levels (S1, S2, R1, R2) for potential breakouts or reversals.
Use technical indicators like RSI (Relative Strength Index) and moving averages (e.g., 9 EMA and 21 EMA) to confirm trends and momentum.
Focus on high-liquidity options (near ATM or slightly OTM) to minimize slippage and ensure smooth execution.
