🪙 Global Cues

“Heightened global uncertainties and the ongoing US government shutdown drove gold to a historical high, reflecting elevated risk aversion,”
Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services

Investors now await the September FOMC minutes for cues on the US Fed’s policy stance. Going forward, domestic earnings, macroeconomic data, and the festive season demand outlook are expected to drive market sentiment.


📉 Technical View

“The 20-day SMA and the 25,050–24,950 zone will act as key support levels. As long as the market stays above these, the bullish bias is intact,”
Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research, Kotak Securities

Resistance zones are seen at 25,200 and 25,275.
For day traders, buying on intraday dips and selling on rallies remains the preferred strategy.

🎯 Trade Setup:

  • Buy Nifty: 25,000–24,950 range

  • Target: 25,200

  • Stop-loss: Below 24,900
