LTP Calculator – The ‘Trishanku’ Market of August 14 and Proof of Victory with 62.5% Profitable Traders’ Vote
August 14, 2025, was a unique day for option traders. Not only was it an expiry day, but the market was also set to remain closed for the next three consecutive days — Independence Day on August 15 followed by the weekend holidays. But these holidays weren’t ordinary. This time, there were strong signals of geopolitical turbulence — on August 15, amidst the Russia-Ukraine war, a meeting between Trump and Putin was scheduled in Alaska. The Indian markets had to adjust themselves in advance, factoring in the possible outcomes of this high-profile meeting.
In the morning class, I shared the story of “Trishanku” with you — a man who could neither go up nor down, left hanging in between. In the options market, this situation arises when all premiums decay towards zero by the end of the day, and the market remains trapped in a narrow range throughout. Today, Nifty did exactly that.
📊 August 14 Poll Result:
-
Total Votes (Trades): 866
-
Profitable Traders: 520
-
Profit %: 60.04%
But the real picture emerges when we add this data to the overall statistics.
📈 Overall Result (23 July to 14 August 2025):
-
Total Trades: 18,813
-
Profitable Traders: 11,750
-
Loss-Making Traders: 7,063
-
Overall Profit %: 62.47%
-
Overall Loss %: 37.53%
This means that not just today, but consistently over the last 23 days, 62.5% of traders using the AI LTP Calculator have been in profit — a complete contrast to SEBI’s data which shows 91% of traders losing money.
The "Trishanku" Market
Now, let’s talk about the market. Today, Nifty fully respected its Weekly Range. In the morning session, Nifty played between the EOS levels of the “4 Magical Lines” that appear at 9:20. Once it moved from the Risky Resistance to hit the R Max Gain target, the rest of the day was spent fluctuating slightly above and below EOS. There was no major crash, no strong rally — just a “Trishanku” style market stuck in the middle.
On such days, when most traders stay confused about whether to even take a position or not, the AI LTP Calculator clearly shows, through its Reversal Prices and Weekly Range, where the true value lies and when patience is required. That’s why the 62.5% traders’ vote becomes proof of victory.
On this occasion, wishing you all a Happy 79th Independence Day. Remember — along with political freedom, financial independence is equally important. And that comes only through "financial education".
