The index looks bearish. It could slide till 4,800 or rise till 4,975 on settlement. Short futures may have a stop loss at 4,950. A naked long August 4,800p (8.5) will work well if the session starts weak. The previous recommendation of a put butterfly with long 4,900p (48) two short 4,800p (2x8.5) and long 4,700p (2) can be cashed out at a big profit.
