'Marking the close' explained in 5 points: Trick inside Jane Street's alleged manipulation playbook
TIL Creatives Jane Street used expiry-day stock moves to shift index options premiums, exploiting algorithmic trades to manipulate prices and gain an unfair edge in Indian markets. Jane Street Group LLC, a US-based global proprietary trading powerhouse, which allegedly manipulated the Indian derivatives market, employed a strategy called 'Marking the close' on the Nifty index options. 1) Any option contract has an underlying stock, and its premium moves with the price of the underlying stock. For Instance, HDFC Bank's CALL option premium will rise if the stock price of HDFC Bank rises while its PUT option premium will rise with a fall in its price. 2) The logic can be extended to the index options, too. For instance, if the Nifty index moves higher, then the Nifty CALL option premium increases and the same is the case with the Bank Nifty. For index options, the underlying is the index itself, which in turn is a basket of stocks. 3) How Options premiums work Option premiums are calculated based on stock/index's current price vis-a-vis the strike price. Strike price is the price at which you exercise the option. So Premiums are high when they are at-the-money or in-the-money. -- In-the-money (ITM) call option: Current price is higher than strike price -- In-the-money put option - Current price is lower than strike price -- At-the-money (ATM) call/put option: Current price is close to strike price 4) On expiry days, OTM (Out of the Money) options are cheap because they are likely to expire worthless. ATM options are most volatile because they near the strike price and anything can happen. But for ITM options, they are fully loaded and available at a premium.

Traders with deep pockets can make this possible and Jane Street's deep pockets seem to have that kind of money. 5) On the expiry day, you buy all the cheap Index OTM options on one hand and on the other hand, you either buy or sell the index underlying constituents to an extent where the options start to move in your favor. Sophisticated traders can do it by just buying or selling heavyweight stocks of the index. Traders can buy all the cheap options before 3 pm and after that, they can accordingly make orders worth crores of rupees in the heavyweight can be done through algorithms which know the exact quantity, price and time, which makes computation of the expiry closing price easy, as the closing price is the weighted average of the last 30 algorithms know the closing price which in turn makes your position favourable.

Disbursal of land compensation starts for railway project in Odisha
MALKANGIRI: The long-awaited 128 km Jeypore-Malkangiri railway project gained momentum with disbursement of Rs 2.45 crore to 39 people towards land acquisition across Mathili panchayat, including four from Khairput block on Friday. Nabarangpur MP Balabhadra Majhi distributed the compensation in presence of Malkangiri MLA Narasinga Madkami and collector Asish Iswar Patil. Beneficiaries received Rs 10 lakh per acre as compensation. Majhi said, the 108 km project stretches 80 km across Malkangiri district, affecting 42 villages - 15 in Mathili, 14 in Malkangiri, and 13 in Khairput blocks. 'A total of 1,946 acre of land would be acquired for the project of which 714 acre are private land and 231 acre are government lands. Once the total land acquisition process is complete by December this year, the project work is likely to commence by January 2026. A total of Rs 476 crore will be required for compensation to 844 beneficiaries across the district,' he said. While the project was sanctioned in 2016 with DPR approved in 2018, progress stalled from 2019-2024. Land acquisition expedited only after the double engine government came to power last year, he added. Talking to the TNIE, collector Patil said, the railways deposited Rs 150 crore with the district administration for compensating 844 beneficiaries across the district affected due to the project. The disbursement will complete within six months and the compensatory afforestation for 1,000 acres forest land is at final stage.
