BankNIFTY is having huge implied volatility due to tomorrow’s incoming policy from RBI on interest rate hike but as we have seen yesterday SBI and other banks have already hiked their rates suggesting that there is a rate hike ahead.
So, The market is discounting rate hike. The opposite case is not hiking the rate which will have a neutral impact. So, BankNIFTY may mean revert i.e. go up as it has already fallen; on the day of a rate hike.
This will slaughter the premium. Hence goes the bullish position with a protected put to cover our downside to some extent. The payoff graph looks fancy too.

So, Here goes the current positions –
Tomorrow we may close 26000 PE and keep the position naked depending on BankNIFTY’s movement on the first half. So far, it looks like bullish seeing the upmove in Global market.
