After a brief period of stability, markets saw pressure on the weekly expiry day and dropped more than one percent. Although the session began with an optimistic outlook, the index steadily declined due to profit-taking in heavyweight companies across all sectors, with the decline picking up speed in the second half. The majority of sectors ended in the red, following the benchmark trend, with the biggest losers being real estate, energy, and automobiles.
A number of factors contributed to the sell-off, including a spike in crude oil prices, heightened geopolitical tensions between Iran and Israel, and expiry-related pressure after a critical support level broke. Participants in the market are now more cautious as a result of these developments, considering the current state of uncertainty, especially in the small-cap and mid-cap sectors. Additionally, until a more distinct directional trend appears, aggressive long positions should be avoided.
In this overview, we will analyze the key technical levels and trend directions for Nifty, Bank Nifty, and BSE Sensex to monitor in the upcoming trading sessions. All the charts mentioned below are based on the 5-minute timeframe
