Nifty Prediction Today By Akshay Chinchalkar, Head of Research at Axis Securities
The Nifty retraced a portion of the Friday short squeeze, creating a "bearish harami" formation. That means the next tactical move will be decided by which of yesterday's high or low gets broken first. For the day, resistance rests between 24726 and 24800, while supports lie in the 24554 - 24580 range. What's also interesting is that the Friday low took support at the Bollinger-middle line, which means buyers remain active on any decline inside what will soon be a period of reduced volumes and therefore higher volatility.

Nifty Outlook Today By Anand James, Chief Market Strategist, Geojit Financial Services
Though the dip and the turn higher thereafter from the 24630 region evolved on anticipated lines yesterday, the rise in VIX is suggestive of caution. This sets up room for extended consolidation with prospects for further slippages. We will keep the 25600 hopes alive though, with a downside marker placed in the 24480-400 region. Meanwhile, we expect early trades to swing within the 24540-700 band.

Nifty 50 Outlook By Dhupesh Dhameja, Derivatives Analyst, SAMCO Securities
On the daily chart, the index ended its session within its prior trading range, signifying that the high of the previous candle (24,792) and the low of today’s candle (24,601) will play a pivotal role in determining the next trend. A close above 24,792 would reinforce a bullish bias. The index has formed a critical support zone around 24,500, corresponding to the neckline of an inverse head-and-shoulders pattern. Additionally, the 20-day exponential moving average (DEMA) near 24,430 further strengthens this support. The daily RSI remains subdued below the 60-mark, highlighting reduced buying momentum and a shift toward sideways consolidation.

Nifty Options Market Insights By Dhupesh Dhameja, Derivatives Analyst, SAMCO Securities
Options activity suggests a bearish undertone, with significant call-writing pressure observed throughout the session. The 25,000-strike call maintains the highest open interest of 1.02 crore contracts, signifying a key resistance level. Conversely, the 24,500-strike put shows strong support, with 67.04 lakh contracts in open interest. Active positioning between the 24,700–25,000 call range and the 24,500–24,600 put range underscores resistance near 25,000 and support around 24,500. A surge in call writing between 24,700 and 25,000 indicates escalating bearish pressure at higher levels, while put unwinding at upper strikes reflects waning bullish confidence. The put-call ratio (PCR) slid to 0.76 from 0.88, pointing to a growing bearish inclination, despite call writers maintaining dominance at elevated levels. The "max pain" level at 24,650 implies limited immediate downside potential.

Nifty Outlook Today By Mr. Dhupesh Dhameja, Derivatives Analyst, SAMCO Securities
“Nifty index’s stance has shifted toward bullish to neutral, as it continues to trade above its crucial 24,500 support level and remains aligned with the 10-20 DEMA, which provides a safety net at lower levels. Given that the index closed within its previous trading range, the high of the last session (24,792) will serve as an immediate hurdle in the coming sessions. Options data corroborates this, with elevated call writing at 24,792, creating a strong barrier. A move above this resistance could trigger short covering, propelling the index toward the psychological 25,000 mark. On the downside, the 24,500–24,600 zone, reinforced by substantial put writing, remains a solid support level. As long as the index holds above this zone, buyers are expected to retain control, supporting a "buy on dips" strategy. Weakness may emerge if the index breaches this support range, opening the door for a decline toward 24,000.”
