Some big guys have missed the BSE rally , they want BSE to come down , that’s why they have created this circus

A short story from my village

There was a new tailor without work.
So, he started stitching pant for the temple elephant to keep him busy…

There are some people in NSE/BSE without work.
So, they are doing this kind of unwanted work to keep themselves busy…

How do you guys plan to adapt to this changing expiry from Thursday to Tuesday for NIFTY?

As the strategy or system that a person would be following would be based on Thursday expiry.

Would be really grateful if you could share your valuable insights staying in this ever changing market!
