Market in Previous Session:
The benchmark indices Nifty and Sensex declined for the second straight session, pressured by rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and ongoing trade concerns that unsettled investor sentiment. Selling was seen across the board, with all major sectoral indices ending in the red, while India VIX jumped over 7 percent, indicating growing market volatility and fear.
The initial market reaction was primarily triggered by a sharp surge in crude oil prices amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. However, the downside was partially capped by a moderation in CPI inflation, providing some relief to investors.
At close, the Sensex was down 573.38 points or 0.70 percent at 81,118.60, and the Nifty was down 169.60 points or 0.68 percent at 24,718.60.

TRADE SETUP FOR JUN 16
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
The index formed a bullish candle but with a lower high and lower low, along with a bearish gap overhead (24,901–24,790), indicating a corrective bias. However, buying interest emerged near the lower band of the past month's consolidation range (24,400–25,200).
In the previous session, the index broke below both the 20-day EMA and the rising trendline connecting recent lows, reinforcing the corrective outlook. A decisive close above the 25,000 mark is now essential to signal a potential halt in the ongoing correction.
In the near term, a breach below 24,600 could trigger further downside towards the crucial support zone of 24,400–24,500. Conversely, if the index holds above 24,600, it may consolidate within the 24,600–25,000 range.
A decisive breakdown below the 24,400–24,500 support zone, especially if accompanied by escalating geopolitical tensions, may lead to a sharper decline in the upcoming week.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 24,800, followed by 24,920 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 24,600, followed by 24,470.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 55,780, followed by 56,000, while downside support is found at 55,260, followed by 54,900.
Nifty:
Put writers are actively positioned at the 24,700, 24,600, and 24,500 strikes, indicating strong multiple support zones. A decisive break below 24,500 may invite further downside pressure.
On the higher side, call writing is visible at 24,700 and 24,800, with fresh additions at the 25,000 strike, which is likely to act as a key resistance level.
Overall, the option chain reflects a consolidation phase for the index, with a defined range between 24,500 and 25,000. A breakout beyond either side of this range could lead to a directional move.
The Put-Call Ratio (PCR) has slipped by 0.03 and now stands at 0.89.
Bank Nifty:
Fresh call writing is observed at the 55,500 strike, marking it as an immediate resistance level. A move above and sustained trade beyond this level may lead to short covering.
On the downside, there is limited put writing participation, and unwinding of positions above 55,500 suggests caution among traders, potentially pointing towards bearish sentiment.
Interestingly, the 56,000 strike holds significant open interest in both calls and puts, signalling a possible straddle formation.
The broader range, as suggested by the option chain, is seen between 55,000 and 57,000.
The Put-Call Ratio (PCR) for Bank Nifty has declined by 0.10 and now stands at 0.73.
Performance Overview:
The Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled 1.8% to 42,197.8, while the Nasdaq Composite shed 1.3% to settle at 19,406.8. The S&P 500 slipped 1.1% to close at 5,977. Energy stocks outperformed, but the rest of the sectors closed in negative territory.
Sector-Specific Movements:
For the week, the three major indices declined following two back-to-back weekly gains. The Dow shed 1.3%, while the Nasdaq and S&P 500 dipped 0.6% and 0.4%, respectively.
Economic Indicators:
U.S. equity benchmarks slipped on Friday, while oil prices surged following Iran's retaliatory missile strikes on Israel.
