I trade stocks in Cash on Delivery basis for small 1-2% gains
My trading screen is Zerodha kite logged from Chrome browser of my Android phone.

Here is a screenshot of my Trading screen where I sold a stock Dr Lal Pathlab which I bought few days back.

1. Day trading Nifty options and futures. Also, swing trade sectoral and international ETFs. Occasionally, trade commodities such as Oil and Bullion futures.

2. Usually between 9am to 4pm. If I do have positions in the commodities markets, then I trade during the evenings as well.

3. Depends on the instrument. I day trade the indices but swing trade stocks and ETFs.

4. Discretionary.

5. 

6. Looking for low risk opportunities to capitalize on. Still need to work on my overtrading habit. Sometimes, no trade is the best trade - especially in the choppy environment we are in right now.

[SpacemanSpiff]

oh, did not realize that there is no STT for international ETFs and much lower STT for domestic ones (0.001% on the sell side ) vs cash (0.1% on buy & sell). This is even lower than Futures - much more reasonable.

Is securities transaction tax(STT) levied on exchange traded funds (ETFs)?

How liquid are these ?

[t7support]

1. NIFTY weekly Options

2. 9.15AM - 3.30 PM

3. Swing

4. Systematic

5. On my mobile phone
   

   

6. Whether Nifty spot hit the red or green lines. But not often. Orders are preset before these lines are hit based on estimated option prices.

[anonymous2]

The Nippon ETFs are fairly liquid but make sure you check the iNAVs on the website before trading them. You’re right on the STT front. It is actually cheaper to take delivery of the ETF than to trade it intraday.

Strike price is outside the allowed range

I will be moving to 5paisa in 1 to 2 months. Nothing against zerodha - Infact they are very good - but they are good only for smaller traders. Also the varsity has offered many insights [photo_2020-06-27_23-14-09] [photo_2020-07-08_08-45-25] [photo_2020-08-01_00-11-18] I’d love to stay on with zerodha - but there are few limitations that will not let me stay profitable. you will not be able to do an iron condor due to OI restrictions (The safest option strategy worldwide).
