Reliance insiders make their biggest bet in 7 years as war fears tank the stock
Created
Thesis
When insiders buy heavily during a slump, it usually signals they see value the market is missing—especially for a company deeply tied to oil refining. The timing is critical: renewed Middle East conflict is actively slowing Gulf crude exports, which squeezes global supply. Even though Reliance stock got beaten down by war fears, the actual tightening of oil supply could boost refining margins. You are buying an oil major at a deep discount just as its core product becomes scarcer, with the founders literally putting their money on the line to confirm the upside.
Strategy approach
Build a swing trading strategy that enters long RELIANCE.NS (or INE002A01018 on non-Indian exchanges) on the daily timeframe when the stock price is within 5% of its 52-week low AND the 14-day RSI is below 40. Combine this with a filter requiring Brent crude futures (BZ=F) to be in a contango structure or showing upward momentum (price > 50-day SMA). Exit conditions: take profit at a 10% gain or if the stock closes below a 5% trailing stop from the entry price. Max hold time of 30 trading days.
