# SOP Strategy: Stock Option Intraday

***

## Overview

The **SOP Strategy** is an intraday stock option strategy based on the **MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)** indicator. It aims to capture trend reversals or continuations by identifying bullish and bearish momentum. This strategy works for both **long trend reversals** and **continuations**, making it suitable for traders who prefer **trend-following** strategies.

The SOP strategy is designed to identify:

* **Buying opportunities** when the MACD signals bullish momentum.
* **Selling opportunities** when the MACD signals bearish momentum.

### Symbol Meanings on the Chart

* **LE:** Long Entry (Call Option Buy)
* **SE:** Short Entry (Put Option Buy)
* **PE:** Pre-Exit (No target hit or stop loss, but logic failed)
* **SL:** Stop Loss
* **TP:** Target

### **Buy Logic (Long Position)**

* After entering the position, predefined **stop-loss** and **target** levels are set based on the market's volatility and range.
* **Targets** and **stop-loss** levels are calculated as **1% of the stock price** with **50% of that 1% as stop loss** and the remaining as the target.

### **Sell Logic (Short Position)**

* A **sell signal** is generated when the **market crosses below** the MACD line with a specified range in spot price.
* Like the buy logic, predefined **stop-loss** and **target** levels are set based on market volatility and range.
