Spot gold is at $5,042.82/oz, whereas silver was trading near $81.4.
General Trends:
Asian equities traded near record highs on Wednesday as investors awaited US jobs data, with weak retail sales strengthening expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut rates later this year.
Market in the Previous Session:
Indian equity markets extended their upward momentum, closing higher for the third consecutive session on February 10th , though gains were capped as benchmarks slipped into a range-bound trade after a positive opening.
With tariff-related concerns easing, the near-term outlook will be guided by Q3 earnings, which have so far been mixed and largely below expectations. Investors are also assessing the combined impact of recent fiscal and monetary measures on earnings revival in the coming quarters.
At the close, the Sensex rose 208.17 points, or 0.25%, to 84,273.92, while the Nifty added 67.85 points, or 0.26%, to end at 25,935.15.
Barring pharma, healthcare and PSU Bank stocks, all sectoral indices finished in the green. The media index led gains with a 2.4% surge, followed by the auto index, which advanced 1.3%.
Broader markets also posted modest gains, with the Nifty Midcap and Smallcap indices up 0.49% and 0.38%, respectively.
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
The index printed a second straight high-wave candle with a higher high and higher low, pointing to consolidation with a positive bias near the 26,000 mark.
Looking ahead, a sustained move above the psychological 26,000 level could open the door for further upside toward the 26,200–26,300 resistance zone in the coming sessions. However, a failure to hold above 26,000 may lead to sideways consolidation within the 25,500–26,000 range.
The overall bias remains positive, and we continue to view dips as buying opportunities. Immediate support is placed at 25,500–25,400, which coincides with last week’s breakout zone and the 20-day EMA. Volatility is likely to stay elevated amid uncertain global cues.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 26,030, followed by the 26,100 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 25,870, followed by 25,770.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 60,890, followed by 61,100, while downside support is found at 60,430, followed by 60,200.
Nifty:
The weekly synthetic future is placed near 25,957, keeping the index well supported near current levels.
Call writing has shifted higher, with the largest build-up at 27,500 and immediate resistance near 26,000, indicating that overhead supply is moving upward rather than pressing lower levels.
The highest put writing at 24,000 reflects a deep support cushion.
In today’s session, both call and put writers were active, but overall positioning suggests balance with a constructive undertone.
Maximum positions were built between 25,900–26,100, highlighting a tight range; however, this base formation near higher levels favors an upside resolution if momentum builds.
Eitherside breakout will decide the further trend for the index.
Bank Nifty:
Both the highest call and put OI remain at 60,000, maintaining this strike as a strong pivot and support base.
Positioning for tomorrow is concentrated in the 60,500–61,000 band, reflecting expectations of continued firmness.
Call writers have unwound positions at 59,500 and 60,000 while shifting additions higher above 60,700, indicating that resistance is moving upward.
A sustained move above 61,000 can open room for a push towards 61,500, while the downside remains cushioned near 60,500.
Performance Overview:
US markets ended mixed on Tuesday, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq slipping after weak retail sales data reignited concerns about AI’s impact on segments of the financial sector, while the Dow Jones edged higher to notch another record close.
Sector-specific indicator:
The S&P 500 fell 0.33% to close at 6,941.81, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 0.59% to 23,102.47. In contrast, the Dow Jones added 52.27 points, or 0.10%, to finish at a new record high of 50,188.14, after hitting its third consecutive intraday peak earlier in the session.
Economic indicator:
US stock futures edged higher late Tuesday as investors awaited the delayed January jobs report. The Bureau of Labor Statistics will release the January nonfarm payrolls data on Wednesday, following a delay caused by the partial government shutdown that ended on February 3.
