India Market Outlook
Market in the Previous Session:
Indian equity markets closed higher on January 12th in a volatile session, with the Nifty hovering around the 25,800 level.

TRADE SETUP FOR JAN 13
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
The index has formed a bullish Piercing Line pattern, showing strong buying interest at lower levels after a sharp 900-point fall in just five sessions. The long lower shadow suggests buyers stepped in from extremely oversold zones.
Nifty has also closed above its 100-day EMA, bouncing strongly from the intraday low of 25,473 and ending near 25,800. The low of 25,473 now acts as an important support level.
After rebounding from oversold conditions, continued strength could push the index towards the 25,950–26,050 resistance zone. This area is important as it aligns with the 20-day EMA and the 61.8% retracement of last week’s decline.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 25,890, followed by 25,960 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 25,670, followed by 25,550.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 59,740, followed by 59,900, while downside support is found at 59,180, followed by 58,950.
Derivative Market Analysis
Nifty:
Fresh put writing activity has been observed at the 25,700 and 25,800 strikes, which will act as an immediate support zone. A decisive break below this zone may accelerate downside momentum.
On the upside, heavy call writing is visible at the 25,900 and 26,000 strikes, indicating strong resistance and likely capping upside potential for the weekly expiry.
The presence of active call and put writers across multiple strikes suggests that the index may witness a range-bound to sideways expiry, unless a sharp trigger emerges.
The maximum pain level is placed at 25,800, reinforcing its importance as a pivotal level for the current expiry.
Significant gamma activity is expected below 25,700 on the downside and above 25,900 on the upside, where a breach could result in sharp and fast directional moves.
Bank Nifty:
In Bank Nifty, both major call and put writers are concentrated at the 59,500 strike, making it a crucial deciding level for near-term direction.
Bank Nifty futures are currently trading above the 59,500 mark. In case of call writer unwinding, the index may extend its upside toward the 60,000 level.
The 59,500 level remains a strong immediate support. A decisive break below this level could trigger fresh downside pressure, while the upside resistance is placed near 60,000.
A range breakout on either side is likely to result in a strong directional move. Until then, consolidation within the 59,500–60,000 range is expected to continue.
US Share Market News
Performance Overview:
The S&P 500 and Dow closed at record highs on Monday, led by gains in tech stocks and Walmart, as investors largely shrugged off concerns over the U.S. Justice Department’s criminal probe into Fed Chair Jerome Powell.
Sector-specific indicator:
Walmart is set to join the Nasdaq-100 index on January 20, a shift that could draw in billions of dollars from passive index funds. Shares of banks and credit card companies fell after Trump proposed a one-year cap of 10% on credit card interest rates starting January 20.
The S&P 500 rose 10.35 points (0.15%) to close at 6,977.29, the Nasdaq Composite gained 62.56 points (0.26%) to 23,733.90, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 80.50 points (0.16%) to finish at 49,584.57.
Economic indicator:
Investors are also turning their focus to the upcoming fourth-quarter U.S. earnings season, which kicks off on Tuesday with results from JPMorgan Chase and other major banks.
Investors also await Tuesday's U.S. consumer price index report, which could influence the outlook for Fed rate cuts.
