Market in the Previous Session:
The Indian benchmark indices snapped their 4-session winning streak and ended on a weaker note on October 8th with the Nifty settling near the 25,050 mark. Going forward, while global cues will remain influential, market focus is expected to shift toward domestic earnings, key macroeconomic indicators, and the momentum of the festive season.
At the close, the Sensex declined 153.09 points, or 0.19%, to 81,773.66, while the Nifty slipped 62.15 points, or 0.25%, to 25,046.15.
Across sectors, barring IT, all indices finished in the red, with notable weakness seen in Realty, Telecom, Pharma, Oil & Gas, Media, PSU Bank, and Auto, which fell between 0.2% and 2%.
Broader markets also witnessed selling pressure, with the Midcap index declining 0.73% and the Small-cap index shedding 0.52%, underscoring broader market weakness.
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
The index in the daily chart formed a small bearish candle with shadows in either direction, signalling consolidation after a 600-point rally over the preceding four sessions.
Going ahead, the Nifty is likely to consolidate in the range of 25,200–24,800, thus forming a base after the recent upmove.
On the higher side, only a move above Tuesday’s high of 25,220 would open further upside towards the 25,400–25,500 levels in the coming week, being the trendline resistance connecting the major highs of June and September 2025.
On the downside, support is placed at 24,800-24,900 levels, being the confluence of the 20- & 50-day EMA and the 61.8% retracement of the last up move (24,588-25,220).
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 25,140, followed by 25,220 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 24,970, followed by 24,900.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 56,280, followed by 56,500, while downside support is found at 55,770, followed by 55,550.
Nifty:
Highest Call OI: 26,000 (major resistance) followed by 25,200.
Highest Put OI: 25,000 (immediate support) followed by 24,000.
Synthetic Future: Trading near 25,060, indicating marginal downside bias.
In the previous session, call writers dominated, with fresh additions at 25,100 and 25,200, creating strong overhead barriers for any near-term upside.
Put addition at 24,900 suggests that the 24,900–25,000 zone will act as immediate support.
On the technical front, two consecutive shooting star candlestick formations on the daily chart signal potential exhaustion of bullish momentum and rising selling pressure at higher levels.
PCR stands at 0.80, reflecting a cautious sentiment with slightly higher call writing pressure.
Bank Nifty:
Highest Call OI: 57,000 followed by 58,000 — both acting as major resistance zones.
Highest Put OI: 55,000 followed by 54,000 — serving as key supports.
A straddle formation at 56,000 highlights this level as the critical pivot point for the coming sessions.
Strong Call writing between 56,000–56,500 indicates that traders expect limited upside beyond these levels.
Put writers have shifted their base lower toward 54,500, which is a bearish signal suggesting weakening support levels.
Immediate resistance: 56,500 | Key support: 56,000.
PCR at 1.05 suggests a slightly balanced stance but with caution as buyers are not showing strong conviction.
