Having grown my Zerodha account 5x in last 19 months since I started systematic intraday options trading, felt I am eligible enough to share my principles around below topics that helped me scale up. A thread on my style of position sizing, compounding and handling drawdown 👇

@rulebasd @AdityaTodmal Positional

@GoldenDustbin @AdityaTodmal futures only for positional system or intraday also?all instruments or only specific instruments planned to trade with futures? thanks

Would be carrying home decent big bearish positions over the weekend for the 5th consecutive weekend. 4 times it worked out very well. Almost all my profit this month has been booked on Mondays. 5th time it won't end well because I'm jinxing it by tweeting this.

@rulebasd @AdityaTodmal No, will trade futures. Profit margin reduces but the strategy still retains a good amount of positive expectancy.

@GoldenDustbin @AdityaTodmal What's your plan from 1st April since the stt increase for future position. Any plan to switch shenthetic futures or option buy

@AdityaTodmal 🙏

@GoldenDustbin Oh lovely, Futures is so hard to crack. 🫡

@AdityaTodmal Started positional futures trading in Oct 2025

@GoldenDustbin Aamodh since when did you start taking overnight positions?

@WealthLab_ Ofcourse yes

@GoldenDustbin If cash is treated as investment, then the return on cash should be accounted for when calculating CAGR?

One underrated advantage traders have over investors: They can treat cash as an investment While investors see cash as idle, a trader uses it to generate revenue daily When markets correct, cash becomes dry powder for quality assets whose collateral value raises trading margin.

@PRAFULKULKARN18 Thats the bad part. The good part (if one wants to look at it that way) is that this change has come at a time gold is off 20% from ATH. One can invest in SGB for cash equivalent collateral when gold is down.

Now's the time to actually scale more into equities and add equities in tranches. But brokers are now gonna mandate maintaining 50% cash collateral even for intraday, Z has already announced, & slowly others to follow. The business of trading getting hammered from all sides.

@SunderjiJB 💯

@GoldenDustbin Path to Profit. We discuss about this in our team regularly. There are many ways/paths to reach a desired return/profit. You have taken a desired path which leads to the same desired profit without risking much.

When I started TBS in Jun'20 my RPT was 1% and RPD was 2%. Used to regularly hit 2% loss a day across concentrated setups Now my max RPD is 5% & RPT is only 0.1% across diversified setups. Now I hardly hit 2% loss a day Wondering whether my risk appetite has ⬆️ or ⬇️ over time

@mayank_408 0DTE up 1.77% on account size (with using 70-80% account size for TBS on 0DTE)

@GoldenDustbin How was march for tbs @GoldenDustbin

@manoj_chamyal TBS is just a structure. The structure can be used to implement various functions. For the kind of functions I implement using TBS structure I feel it will stay evergreen.

@GoldenDustbin Amodha what do u think TBS will perform in upcoming years ..it is a evergreen strategy in selling options

@Chaitanya__V Depends on what you consider as 'still working'. It has generated 11% on account size in FY26 for me.

@GoldenDustbin Are TBS still working?

@SixesAndWides TBS in intraday options Not more than 2% per day in 0DTE TBS, not more than 1% per day in nDTE TBS

@GoldenDustbin Up for sure specially since u have added commodities as well. Btw are u doing time based on all or indicator based as well ?

RPT - Risk Per Trade RPD - Risk Per Day

@the_avid_trader Yes correct

@GoldenDustbin By higher time frame filter do you mean that checking overall trend on higher frame and taking trade on lower time frame in same direction?

Hi Trend followers on my TL, I am looking to unlearn and relearn creating system for trend following. Please refer some good books. I am thinking to start with Following the trend by Andreas Clenow. Thanks 🙏🏻

Had this price action happened 9 hours earlier on Nifty 0DTE 1. If short option(SO) legs didnt exit & long option(LO) triggers missed due to LPP: 10% loss 2. If SO legs SL executed & LO missed triggers: 27% profit 3. If SO legs SL executed & LO triggered: 37% profit How?👇
