Why is there big discount in Coalindia march futures? Any reverse arbitrage opportunity?

Oh cool , I also tested Zerodha margin and it gives me weird results. Did you use spread positions explicitly or ordered these 2 positions in 2 separate orders ? 20 K margin looks really good and is less

I placed the orders one after the other… Am not aware how to place a spread order… Is it possible in India?

Yes from NSE Now/Neat desktop platform… I think even Zerodha PI allows it

what are ur expectation now ? Dividend hasnt been declared yet right ?

Yea… I don’t see dividend being declared on any news website… Well, let’s hope for the best then… :money_mouth_face:

no change i guess?

Yep… no change…

Gonna hold till the end ?

Yep… or till some decent profit arises…

March contracts are illiquid…
My guess is once march contact starts trading, gap will narrow.

Never seriously done arbitrage but my guess is when rollover happens , gap narrows drastically

Yea… in the last few days before expiry this is the usual tendency.

May be 22 rs. Different still expiry… so close position if possible…

How was this figure of 22 arrived at?

I don’t know, but small traders trapped in this type of trade.
Watch this trade still expiry…

Maám I had entered into similar trades in earlier occasions, and almost every trade has been profitable, although, I am doing it in Coalindia for the 1st time… let’s see what happens near expiry… just hoping for the best.

All the best,:+1::+1::+1:
