🔥 NIFTY – Intraday Trading Plan for 19-Mar-2025
Current Market Price (CMP): 22,848.75
Chart Time Frame: 15-min
📘 Opening Scenario 1: GAP-UP Opening (100+ points)
If NIFTY opens with a strong gap-up above 22,950, it would directly open into the Profit Booking Zone: 22,995 – 23,067.
🧠 Tip: Avoid call option entries if IVs are inflated and premiums are already factored in after a big gap-up. Time decay can eat your premiums fast.
📗 Opening Scenario 2: FLAT Opening (within 50-80 pts)
In case of a flat or minor gap opening near 22,800 – 22,850, the price will open just above the key consolidation zone: 22,727 – 22,801.
🧠 Tip: For flat openings, best setups come after the first 15-30 minutes. Let the market decide the direction first—then align your trade.
📙 Opening Scenario 3: GAP-DOWN Opening (100+ points)
A gap-down below 22,700 will place the index back into or below the consolidation zone. Major supports are at 22,656**, 22,532, and Buyers’ Support: 22,270 – 22,320.
🧠 Tip: When buying the dip in a gap-down scenario, use options spreads (e.g., bull call spreads) to reduce premium decay risk while maintaining upside exposure.
💡 Risk Management Tips for Options Traders:
✅ Use defined-risk strategies like spreads (Bull Call / Bear Put)
✅ Avoid chasing momentum in the first 15 minutes of market opening
✅ Stick to 1–2 high probability trades per day
✅ Always place stop loss based on structure or candle close
✅ Never average into losing options trades—respect time decay
✅ Focus on ATM or slightly OTM contracts with 1–2 day expiry for best gamma moves

📘 Opening Scenario 1: GAP-UP Opening (100+ points)
If NIFTY opens with a strong gap-up above 22,950, it would directly open into the Profit Booking Zone: 22,995 – 23,067.
- []Avoid aggressive long entries near the opening if prices directly hit the profit booking zone, as early buying could trap latecomers. []Wait and observe price action in the 22,995 – 23,067 range. If the index forms bullish consolidation with strength, breakout above 23,067 can push it towards the final resistance at 23,185.
- If rejection occurs near this zone, look for reversal signals like a 15-min bearish candle with follow-up selling to consider short scalps targeting back to 22,850 – 22,775.
🧠 Tip: Avoid call option entries if IVs are inflated and premiums are already factored in after a big gap-up. Time decay can eat your premiums fast.
📗 Opening Scenario 2: FLAT Opening (within 50-80 pts)
In case of a flat or minor gap opening near 22,800 – 22,850, the price will open just above the key consolidation zone: 22,727 – 22,801.
- []Look for first 15-30 minutes consolidation. If NIFTY sustains above 22,801, fresh buying can push it to test 22,995. []A failure to sustain above 22,801 and breakdown below 22,775 will drag prices back into the range. The downside targets then would be 22,656 and 22,532.
- No trade zone for flat opening: avoid trades inside 22,727 – 22,775, unless a directional breakout occurs.
🧠 Tip: For flat openings, best setups come after the first 15-30 minutes. Let the market decide the direction first—then align your trade.
📙 Opening Scenario 3: GAP-DOWN Opening (100+ points)
A gap-down below 22,700 will place the index back into or below the consolidation zone. Major supports are at 22,656**, 22,532, and Buyers’ Support: 22,270 – 22,320.
- []Aggressive buying should be avoided unless NIFTY shows strong reversal signals from support zones like 22,532 or 22,270. []If prices bounce from the Buyers’ Support Zone, a quick upside retracement towards 22,656 or even 22,727 is possible.
- However, if NIFTY breaks below 22,270, it could enter a deeper correction territory—so keep strict stop losses.
🧠 Tip: When buying the dip in a gap-down scenario, use options spreads (e.g., bull call spreads) to reduce premium decay risk while maintaining upside exposure.
