Nifty Takes a Pause; Key Support Holds Firm Amid Minor Pullback

Nifty slipped mildly on Wednesday, ending the session at 25,453.40, down 0.35%, as selling pressure emerged near higher levels. A bearish candle formed on the daily chart, reflecting intraday profit booking but not yet a reversal of the broader uptrend.

 Key Technical Observations from Nifty:

• The index continues to trade above its 9-day EMA at 25,340, a zone that aligns with an extended trendline from prior swing highs. This region now acts as immediate support.
• Further cushion lies at the 20-day EMA near 25,200, providing downside protection in case of a deeper pullback.
• The daily RSI has cooled off to 61, indicating a healthy dip rather than any shift in trend.
• On the hourly chart, Nifty is retesting its prior breakout zone near 25,300, which now converges with the rising trendline, forming a potential reversal pocket.
• The hourly ADX has slipped to 24, signaling reduced momentum but no breakdown yet.

 What to Watch:

• Support Zone: 25,340–25,300 remains crucial. Holding this zone could attract fresh buying.
• Resistance Band: 25,580–25,660. A decisive close above 25,660 would reignite bullish momentum and open the path toward 25,850 and beyond.
  
  

 Bank Nifty Retreats from Record Zone; Bears Take Temporary Control

Bank Nifty closed at 56,999.20, falling 0.80%, and forming a bearish engulfing pattern on the daily chart, suggesting short-term weakness after rejection near the psychological 57,500 zone.

 Key Technical Observations of Nifty Bank:

• The index failed to hold above its rising channel, breaching the previous day’s low—a sign of potential cooling after a strong rally.
• Currently, it’s hovering just above the 9-day EMA and channel midline, both near 56,800. This area serves as critical near-term support.
• The daily RSI has slipped below 60, hinting at waning momentum.
• On the hourly chart, Bank Nifty has pulled back from multiple failed breakout attempts at the channel top. It is now approaching the lower trendline support of the rising structure.
• The hourly ADX has also dipped to 29, reflecting a loss of directional strength.
  
  

 What to Watch:

• Support Zone: 56,300–56,400. A break below this could extend the correction.
• Resistance Zone: 57,500. Only a strong close above this level can revive bullish sentiment and pave the way toward 58,200.
  
  

Overall Market Sentiment:

Despite 3/07/2025 pause, both Nifty and Bank Nifty remain structurally strong, supported by higher lows and resilient support zones. The recent dip appears time-wise and corrective, not trend-threatening. Investors should monitor the key support bands closely and watch for bullish confirmation before re-entering.
