Indian equity indices ended on a positive note with the Nifty closing near the 25,000 mark on August 25. At close, the Sensex was up 329.06 points or 0.40% at 81,635.91, while the Nifty gained 97.65 points or 0.39% to settle at 24,967.75.
After a gap-up opening, Nifty traded around the 25,000 level where the price consolidated and formed an inside bar candlestick pattern, indicating indecision but potential for a breakout. If the index manages a decisive close above 25,070, it has the potential to rally towards 25,400 and 25,600 levels. On the downside, the index is taking support from the 20- and 50-EMA, which indicates a buying opportunity on dips. Immediate resistance is seen at 25,200; if this level is taken out, the bullish trend will strengthen further. The RSI at 53.48 is trending upward, reflecting improving momentum, and the overall outlook remains cautiously positive.
Bank Nifty continues to underperform, still trading below its recent breakout zone. Immediate resistance is placed at 55,700; a move above this could trigger fresh momentum. On the downside, support lies near 55,000, where the 100-EMA is placed. A breakdown below this could lead to further correction towards 54,400 and 54,000 levels. The current trend remains sideways to bearish, with the RSI at 40 trending downward, showing persistent weakness.
Volatility eased further as India VIX rose marginally by 0.26% to 11.7575, reflecting a relatively stable market sentiment. In the options segment, the highest Call OI is placed at 25,200 and 25,500, marking key resistance zones, while the highest Put OI is seen at 24,900 and 24,800, highlighting strong support levels.
The combined technical and derivatives setup suggests that the market bias remains cautiously bullish. A decisive close above 25,100 could trigger fresh upside momentum. Traders are advised to stay cautiously long, use declines to accumulate quality stocks, and protect positions with strict stop-losses.
