Why Momentum is the New Game in Options Trading🎯📈

Earlier, the market used to stay rangebound almost 70% of the time, and only about 30% of the time it used to trend. But after the COVID era, things changed drastically. With lakhs of new traders entering the market and global institutions getting active in options trading, we’ve started seeing sharp and sudden moves more frequently. Now, when the market is rangebound, option buyers generally lose money. Because options trading is all about momentum. Even if the market moves 100 points in your favour, but takes the entire day to do so, theta decay will eat up your premiums and you may end up with nothing. But if the same market moves just 50-60 points in 5-10 minutes, that’s real momentum — premiums shoot up and that’s where the actual money is made. You won’t get such momentum every day, but when you do, don’t miss it. Whenever I sense that the market might give a strong move, I make our premium members enter — and even re-enter if the SL gets hit in the first attempt. Because if you trade smartly without getting greedy, even one good momentum call is enough to close your day in solid profit.
