West Texas Intermediate crude oil was trading near 69$ per barrel, whereas Brent crude was at 72$ per barrel.
General Trends:
Asian equities remained rangebound as investors awaited the Federal Reserve’s policy verdict, with the slight advancement in U.S.-China trade discussions providing minimal uplift to market mood.
Sector Specific Indicators:
Japanese shares saw choppy trading at the open, while markets in South Korea and Australia held steady on Wednesday, following the S&P 500’s break from its six-day winning streak.
Market in Previous Session:
Indian equity benchmarks closed on a strong footing on July 29, with the Nifty decisively reclaiming the 24,800 level, driven by broad-based accumulation and robust market breadth. Despite a tepid start and initial pressure that pushed indices into deep red, markets witnessed a sharp intraday rebound, culminating in a positive close across the board.
At close, the Sensex was up 446.93 points or 0.55 percent at 81,337.95, and the Nifty was up 140.20 points or 0.57 percent at 24,821.10.
All sectoral indices closed firmly in the green, led by strength in Realty, Pharma, and Oil & Gas, each logging gains of around 1%.
The broader market outperformed, with the Midcap index advancing 0.8% and the Smallcap index rallying 1%, reflecting strong participation from the broader universe.
Investors remain focused on the upcoming FOMC policy outcome and the deadline for tariff negotiations, both seen as crucial triggers for near-term market direction. Additionally, the ongoing corporate earnings season is being closely monitored for cues on sectoral performance and broader economic health.
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
Index formed a bullish engulfing candle in the daily chart, signaling buying demand around the 100-day EMA after three sessions of sharp decline.
Going ahead, the index is likely to enter a consolidation phase in the range of 24,500-25,000 in the coming sessions. While a move above 25,000 will open further upside towards the last two weeks' highs, placed at 25,250.
Key support is at the 24,500–24,400 region, being the confluence of the previous swing low, the 100-day EMA, and the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the recent rally from 23,935 to 25,669 — making it a crucial demand zone that could attract buying interest or pause the ongoing correction.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 24,920, followed by 25,000 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 24,700, followed by 24,610.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 56,400, followed by 56,670, while downside support is found at 56,000, followed by 55,760.
Nifty:
The highest call open interest (OI) is concentrated at 25,000, followed by 26,000, indicating strong resistance zones.
On the put side, the highest OI is seen at 24,000, suggesting a firm support base.
In the previous session, put writers were active below 24,800, while notable call unwinding was observed above 24,700, signaling a shift towards a bearish bias. The 25,000 level now stands out as a crucial resistance.
If Nifty manages to sustain above this zone, it could pave the way for an upmove towards 25,200. The put-call ratio (PCR) currently stands at 0.80, reflecting a cautious sentiment with a bearish tilt.
Bank Nifty:
In Bank Nifty, the highest call OI is placed at 57,000, followed by 57,500, while the highest put OI is seen at 56,000.
The previous session saw intense activity from both call and put writers in the 55,800 to 56,300 range, indicating a tightly contested zone. Notably, aggressive call writing at 57,500 suggests strong overhead resistance.
On the downside, 56,300 remains a key support level; a breach below this could trigger a slide towards 55,800.
Resistance continues to build around 57,000. The current PCR stands at 0.69, further confirming a bearish stance among market participants.
Performance Overview:
Global equities retreated on Tuesday as investors in the U.S. braced for a series of earnings reports from megacap firms and the Federal Reserve’s upcoming policy decision. Meanwhile, oil prices surged after the U.S. warned of potential tariff hikes on China if it continues purchasing Russian crude.
Sector-Specific Index:
On Wall Street, the S&P 500 ended a six-session winning streak, declining 18.91 points or 0.30% to close at 6,370.86. The Nasdaq Composite posted its first loss in five sessions, falling 80.29 points or 0.38% to 21,098.29. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 204.57 points or 0.46%, settling at 44,632.99.
