About

About SK Research.

SK Research is founded with the objective of providing structured market research and analytical insights across Indian equity and derivatives markets. The platform is built around a disciplined, process-driven approach that values capital protection as highly as opportunity capture.

The research approach.

A combined framework that draws on multiple inputs before evaluating any market opportunity. No single indicator or signal is taken in isolation.

The research process begins with structure. Price action and trend behaviour are read on the higher timeframes first, then refined on intermediate timeframes for entry context. Volume and relative strength serve as confirmation layers, not signals in their own right. Once a setup passes these filters, it is sized against a defined invalidation level, and the reward-to-risk profile is evaluated against the prevailing market regime. This sequence is followed for both equity ideas and derivative strategy choices, so the output stays consistent regardless of instrument.

Research coverage includes.

Six distinct domains, each covered with the same technical framework and documented research output.

Index

NIFTY and Bank NIFTY

Structural and technical analysis on the headline indices, including trend, momentum, and key levels. These views provide the macro context for individual equity and options ideas.

  • Higher-timeframe trend bias
  • Critical support and resistance
  • Momentum and breadth checks
Momentum

Momentum Stocks

Identification of equities showing strong relative strength and constructive price structure. The objective is to align with leaders rather than chase laggards.

  • Daily and weekly RS scans
  • Breakout and continuation reads
  • Volume-validated entries
Sector

High Relative Strength Sectors

Sector-level rotation analysis to track leadership and identify outperforming themes. Capital flows where strength is concentrated, and sector RS is the cleanest read on that flow.

  • Sector RS rankings
  • Rotation signal tracking
  • Theme leadership monitoring
Swing

Swing Trading Opportunities

Setups with defined entry, stop loss, and target levels grounded in technical structure. Holds typically range from several days to several weeks, depending on the trend regime.

  • Structure-based entries
  • Invalidation level defined
  • Measured-move targets
Options

Options Market Observations

Notes on positioning, volatility behaviour, and strategy ideas focused on NIFTY options. Strategy selection follows from the underlying read, not the other way around.

  • Volatility regime reads
  • Positioning and OI shifts
  • Defined-risk strategies
Risk

Disciplined Risk Framework

Risk management is not a final step, it is the starting point. Every idea is sized against a defined invalidation and benchmarked against the prevailing risk-reward profile of the market.

  • Predefined stop levels
  • Position sizing rules
  • Adjustment and exit plans

Research philosophy.

Three principles guide every research decision, every framework choice, and every published note.

01

Discipline Over Prediction

The focus is not on predicting markets, but on identifying favourable risk-reward opportunities supported by technical and market structure analysis. Forecasts age poorly; processes do not.

02

Risk Management First

Capital protection and disciplined execution remain central to every research framework. The first question on any setup is "where is this wrong" rather than "where can this go".

03

Process-Driven Approach

A systematic process is followed to evaluate market trends, momentum, and probability-based setups. The same checklist applies whether the idea is an index trade, a swing stock, or an options structure.
