Derivatives trading expert blending options analytics and algo strategy to deliver consistent returns.
What I'm looking for
I’m a derivatives trading expert with 5+ years of experience across Indian equities and cryptocurrency markets, focused on designing and executing both non-directional and directional options strategies. I rely on clear market pattern analysis and technical insights to turn probability-based setups into consistent outcomes.
Having been a former Goldman Sachs analyst, I bring a strong academic foundation (MBA in Finance) and an options-first research approach. I’m NISM Certified Research Analyst and Derivatives Specialist, specializing in Nifty, Bank Nifty, and SENSEX equity derivatives, systematic trading strategy formulation, and delivering actionable research reports for retail and institutional investors.
In my recent role as an Equity Market Instructor & Strategist, I developed and deployed algorithmic and automated equity and derivatives market strategies, improving portfolio efficiency and cutting manual intervention by 30%. I’ve also delivered 100+ webinars and strategy sessions, translating systematic trading concepts into practical, data-driven adoption for retail participants, VC firms, and angel investors.
Earlier, as a Financial & Research Analyst, I managed a derivatives portfolio exceeding ₹30 Crore, using advanced Excel financial modelling to optimize risk exposure and support high-frequency decisions. Across roles and independent trading, I’ve built expertise in OI analysis, IV, Greeks, hedging strategies, back-testing, and algorithm development—always combining scenario testing with disciplined trading psychology to pursue measurable, repeatable ROI.
