NIFTY
Current: 4,850 (January futures: 4,871);
Target: NA
The index made a breakout that could push it past the 4,900-mark. One-session expectations would be 4,975, and 4,725. A bullspread of long 4,900c (75) and short 5,000c (38) costs 37 and it would gain by around 15-20 if 4,900 is crossed. The previously recommended strangle of long 4,900c (75) and long 4,600p (19) has gained. Cash out if the Nifty crosses 4,975.
