    Why Track Sensex Trades Separately

    Sensex (BSE 30) trades on BSE with different dynamics than NSE indices. With a lot size of just 10, it's the most accessible index for capital-constrained traders. Friday expiry means different theta profiles than Nifty (Thursday) and BankNifty (Wednesday).

    Tracking Sensex separately reveals whether BSE's index works better for your trading style. Some traders find the smaller lot size and different expiry day create an edge that NSE indices don't offer.
