NIFTY
Current Price: 5,910,
Target Price: NA
The index could be set for a swing (perhaps intra-day) till either 5,800 or 6,000. An at-the-money straddle of long 5,900c (115) and long 5,900p (90) could yield absolute returns of around 15 per cent. If the Nifty hits 6,000, delta-calculations suggest the 5,900c will rise to about 180 while the 5,900p drops to 60. Conversely, at 5,800, the 5,900p will rise to 150, while the 5,900c drops to 85.
