And guys, the method I'm about to tell you has an accuracy of 90%. And if you trade wildly, you can increase your accuracy even further. So guys, first of all, let's understand what Max Pain is. Friends, Max Pain means a point where the put or call writer has to suffer the least loss. At such times, option buyers like you and I have to suffer the most losses. That's why this place is named Max Pain. Let's take you to the desktop screen and explain everything to you thoroughly. Max Pain is seen at the end. How are you and how do you use Max Pan? So friends, I have opened the stock here. As soon as you open the stock, you will see an F&O option here. Simply click on it. After clicking, you will see all three options - Nifty 50, Nifty Bank and then Nifty. Here we simply do a backtesting for you. Let's see the Max Pan of Nifty 50. Friends, first of all, I want to make one thing clear to you that Max Pan gives you a good profit on the day of expiry. So, whenever you make a trade, trade on the day of expiry and that too after 3 o'clock. From here, you can take a good Ro to Hero call. So friends, you can see Nifty 50 here. If we talk about its Max Pan, its Max Pan is 19650, which means the market will close around 19650. If we look at the chart of Nifty 50, we can see our Nifty 50 here. It closed around 19691, although there is a bit more variation here, but normally the market closes within 10 points of the maximum pain. So suppose the market is running at 19700 and your Maxon is showing 19650, then you have to go to the put side there with your eyes closed and take a put of 19650 and in this way you will take the OTM call and convert it into ATM. On the day of expiry, you will have to pay 30 paise, 40 paise, 50 paise and if the market crosses your 19650 area, the price of your trade increases to ₹1. In this way, you can multiply your capital by 12 times, 13 times, even 15 times. I will also show a live example of this. In yesterday's mid-cap trade, I took a trade according to the maximum pain and there I multiplied my capital by about eight to nine times, friends. Similarly, you can also see this in Nifty Bank. You can see that the max payout for Nifty Bank is 44,400. Here, you can see that our Bank Nifty closed around 4,463. Similarly, if you look at the max payout for Fin Nifty, its max payout is 19,800. You can see that Fin Nifty closed around 19,834, so it closed almost around that level. However, the max closed almost around that level. However, the max payout at most times is very accurate. The market reaches that point. Friends, I also want to tell you that if you don't use stocks, you can check out Sensible Nifty Trading or Trading Trick.com. You can also check out the max payout from here. Also, if you want to open a trading account on Up Stock, I'll provide a link in the description box. You can open it from there. So, let's how I earned on Monday in Mid Cap. So, friends, you can see it. I took a screenshot here. In the mid-cap, I took a Row to Hero trade, where my max pay was 9025. So what I did here was the market was trading around 9050, so I took a put option of 925, which cost me only 30 paise. Friends, you can see this line is where I entered the trade. My trade was around 30 paise. If you look at this line, the market had placed a high of ₹2500000 here. And when the market came and touched I achieved my target there. I raised the S&P and kept it at 9025. After that, the market placed a very good high and left me with a good profit. If you learn this method well and learn to use it well, do a lot of back testing.
