Can Part Timers do Scalping
1. Any individual who is working and trading in between office hours, can make 1 to 2 K with a capital of 1 lakh.
2. Look at the returns ?? Calculate with 15 trading sessions forget about the expiry day Trades.
3. When I say 1 lakh, actual funds should not exceed 25 to 30k in each trade with a profit of 1% of your Capital deployed
4. But why 99 percent unable to make it ?? WE ALL WANTED TO MAKE BIG IN SINGLE TRADE
How to Use your Capital and How to buy or sell stock in scalpers?
- If I start with say 1 lakh capital in an options market
- Will spend atleast 6 months to understand complete basics of options with all tools
- Though we may have 1lakh, each trade should never exceed 25 to 30 percent of entire capital on a usual day and 30 to 50 percent on an expiry day
- Means I trade say 32000ce buy at 100 90 80 70
- My avg should be 83 to 84 and the max qty should not exceed 80 to 100
- 1lakh capital 82 * 100 8200 investment Considering up to 18 percent I can max go till 240 qty that too on a case by case basis where 18 to 25 percent risk
- But I am assuming the strike goes to zero
- We should have a risk reward pattern I buy from 100 90 80 70 my avg is 83 and the strike moving still downwards , I should know whats the max risk I can take say 20 points , then I should exit between 60 to 65 range
- Unless a trend day very rarely, otherwise market doesn't move one side always It gives you multiple entry exits but there are people who dont understand the volatility but keep waiting for the targets
- When I use the word volatility its both sides when 10 can go to 100 obviously 100 can become 10

2. Nothing comes easy in life - if PV Sindhu could only breathe badminton all the time for so many years, no wonder is the reason for being world’s no.1 Player.
3. But many of the traders wanted to invest 1 lakh and there were few people when they ask “what to expect and I say 15 to 20 percent”.
4. They ask me - every day basis ?? I how ever welcome those brilliant minds here to stock market, so our job becomes easy.
5. Expect Small targets of 1% and achieve it consistently, you will be amazed at the results after a while… Just do it and see for yourself.
