Re. 1 for a portfolio of Rs. 1000. The model currently has two versions: money management version and simple version.
I have back tested HDFC Bank from 1995 since the time it was around 40 rupees(small cap) using the money management version and it changes the amount to be bet according to scenario.
However, right now on TED I want to just test the simple version and that too only on HDFC Bank.

Omji,Since this is a trading strategy, have you considered going in for a covered derivative strategy, say Buy an HDFC call and sell a HDFC future, since in such a case you will be able to maximise your profits (in case there are profits at the end of the day), else minimise your loss?? A straddle will help you to trade your profits in a range, Just a thought....

Just tell me one thing how do you get the target price to base your trade on.
I mean when you say Bet Re1 for every 1 point rise in HDFC Bank from 900...then here how do u derive the number 900....

Catcall jee, I wanted to make it easy to understand for everyone and me and hence came upon using the "Bet Re. 1..." analogy. The profits should be better seen over a period of 3 months minimum. Sure, we can use those options when in reality we put the model to practial use, thanks!!
Furkanalam jee, the number(target price as you said) is generated by my model based on open, high,low,close prices of the stock over a period of many days and applying formulas to them.

Catcall Sir, these covered things are a ploy to enhance brokerage......
If you are bullish, simply buy a call.
If you are bearish, simply buy a put.
