🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD – August 2, 2025 – Friday 🔴
Trapped at the Top, Slammed at the Close – Bulls Burnt Out!
🗓️ Nifty Summary
With the continuation of yesterday's hidden weakness, today's session gave early hope but ended with a bearish surprise. Nifty opened near the key support zone of 24,735 ~ 24,725, hovered indecisively, then suddenly rallied to 24,780, trapping bulls just under resistance.
But the trap was set.
A sharp reversal followed as Nifty broke not just the day’s low, but also the previous day’s support zone of 24,660 ~ 24,675, pulling the index lower into the 24,565.35 close — the second lowest close since May 12.
A fierce 2–3 hour tug-of-war between bulls and bears took place in a tight 40–50 point range until 2:50 PM, when bulls gave up—leading to a 100+ point fall in the last half-hour. shocked many traders, especially those fatigued from the earlier choppy action.
Much like yesterday, both sides of the trade were available today.
Did you catch them?
Zoom Out View :
Today’s close is just 23 points above the June 3 close, wiping out nearly 59 sessions (81 days) of gain.
Will the zone of 24460 ~ 24542 provide support again, or are we headed for a retest of the 24000 ~ 23800 and 23200 ~ 22800 (Pattern Target and Virgin) range?
Yes, you read correctly 23200 ~ 22800…!
Not so soon…but eventually…!
wish you tell me crazy and hope I am wrong…!
