Support and Resistance

Nifty has hit a channel top with geopolitical events unravellingNifty was swiftly recovering after the Tariff war induced fall. On technical front Nifty has hit a channel top In the hourly line chart. Chanel tops are not easy to conquer and we saw Nifty retrieving today from there. Adding pressure to the rally is the Geo-Political situation after the Dastardly Pahalgam Terrorist Attack. If there is any action by India like Balakot (Swift and fast) any way it will be denied by Pakistan so nothing much will happen to Index. If there is only Political/Geopolitical long term steps taken again it will have less effect on the market. Market may decline drastically only if there is a full blown war between the 2 countries or more than 2 countries. (Possibility of that happening is less but we never know). Not much is in our hand if such a scenario arises. FIIs were seen buying big today so that is something to watchout in the coming days. Technical Supports for Nifty remain at: 24096, 23882 (Mother Line Support), 23800 and 23316 (Father Line Support). (Mid channel support is also around 23300) so this zone presents a strong support zone. Technical Resistances Remain at: 24335 (Major Channel Top Resistance), 24504, 24656 and 24785.

FETUSDI sold every single FET I had at around 2.50s in May 24 and I've not been really interested in it since then, apart from a few short term traders. It's always been a terrible asset to trade frequently, a pain to wait for it to do its thing and then everything happens in a matter of few weeks. As if it's not enough, the merger made it even less attactive. Anyway, this chart is from December and finally it's in my buy zone. If the qFVG doesn't hold, then i think it'll go down to htf golden pocket for a 98% retrace from ATH. The team behind is relentlessly building and making partnerships, so i think its time can come again.

Gold – How Important Could the Fibonacci Support Levels Be?Even by recent standards, the price action seen in Gold this week so far has been extreme. For those that may not have seen it all, here we go. Gold opened at 3331 on Monday, traded to a new all time high of 3500 on Tuesday, then dropped all the way back down to 3260 on Wednesday before recovering again to current levels around 3330. A round trip of circa 14%. The drivers appear to be comments from President Trump and US Treasury Secretary Bessant. With President Trump seeming to challenging the independence of the Federal Reserve at the start of the week (Gold higher) and then pulling back from his most outspoken criticism on Wednesday (Gold lower). Alongside President Trump and Secretary Bessant both commenting on the potential for a de-escalation of the trade war with China on Wednesday (Gold lower), but then suggesting it may take some time to agree (Gold higher). All of this at the same time that a potential US brokered peace detail between Ukraine and Russia may be moving a step closer to becoming a reality and you can possibly see why Gold prices have moved so much. Right now, as traders take a pause for breath, its may be a good time to consider the charts and identify some potential support and resistance levels that may come into play into the Friday close. Technical Update: 3292 Fibonacci 38.2% Support in Focus Let’s be honest here, when a market is accelerating higher into new all-time high ground, as an almost ‘panic’ rush to get long of an asset is seen, it is very difficult to establish upside resistance levels that may or may not be able to hold the advance, let alone reverse it. As technical analysts, we can only really focus on 2 things in such a condition, psychological round numbers and Fibonacci extension levels. Therefore, it’s interesting where the recent acceleration higher in Gold stalled this week, at 3500. Obviously, this is a round number that may have drawn traders’ interest from a psychological perspective, but this also represented a test of 3468, which is equal to the 261.8% Fibonacci extension of the October 31st to November 14th 2024 sell-off. With weakness developing from 3500, this extension level held on a closing basis, from which further declines have materialised. So, we might suggest after the recent weakness in Gold prices, that an upside resistance area has now been established between 3468/3500. If that is the case, what might the support levels be for us to monitor to gauge if current weakness has further to carry of not? Potential Support Levels: The latest phase of price strength in Gold was seen between April 7th to April 22nd 2025, and calculating Fibonacci retracement on this price strength, may highlight some interesting support levels. The latest downside move has tested, and is so far being held by support at 3292, which is the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the latest strength. Traders may now be watching how this level performs on a closing basis, as confirmed breaks lower might see a more extended phase of price weakness emerge. Much will of course depend on future market sentiment and price trends, but closing breaks below 3292 could suggest further declines to 3228, the 50% level, possibly even 3165, which is the deeper 62% retracement. Potential Resistance Levels: As we have already said, the latest price activity may well be suggesting the 3468/3500 range is an area that may prove to be a resistance focus. However, if the 3292 retracement support continues to hold, focus could then be on 3380, as a possible lower resistance level. This is equal to half of the latest declines, with closing upside breaks of this resistance possibly suggesting positive themes are re-emerging, which could lead to further pressure being placed on the important 3468/3500 resistance range.

Gold still has the risk of adjustment in the short termAnalysis of gold market trend: From the daily level, gold rose strongly during the trading session on Tuesday, touched the key price of 3500, then fell under pressure and finally closed with a negative line. This trend of rising and falling shows that the selling pressure from above is heavy, and the bulls are strongly blocked by the bears at high levels. Then, gold continued to fall on Wednesday and closed with a negative line again, forming a technical pattern of two consecutive negative lines. This continuous decline further confirms that the short-term bears are dominant. From the 4-hour gold chart, the gold price has maintained a fluctuating decline since it was under pressure at the 3500 line. The current price has fallen back to the 3260 line at its lowest, and the short-term decline has reached 240 US dollars. Although there has been a rebound during the day, the upward trend has been destroyed. The MACD indicator double line has issued a dead cross change signal, suggesting that the callback trend may have started. Pay attention to the pressure effect of the 3368 line during the day. For the current market, the rebound is just a flash in the pan, and it rebounded sharply again, reaching the highest point near 3367 and then retreated. It is currently maintained near 3330. In fact, the market is actually at a loss for long and short positions, and is simply unable to withstand its huge shocks. For the Asian session's highs and falls, we support it according to the shock retracement. For example, if the European session rebounds again near 3358-60, we will continue to try to short, with the target at 3320-10, and a loss of 3370. The market amplitude is so drastic that I need to strictly implement good operating habits, try with a light position, strictly stop loss, and don't have a fluke mentality! On the whole, today's short-term operation strategy for gold is to rebound and short, supplemented by callbacks. The short-term focus on the upper side is 3368-3370, and the short-term focus on the lower side is 3260-3285. Friends must keep up with the rhythm.

US policy news triggers huge shock in gold Analytical StrategyThe short-term 4-hour middle track 3380 line has been lost, becoming a key counter-pressure point. As long as the price cannot stand on this position again, it will maintain a downward correction trend. If it falls below 3292, the gains and losses of the 66-day moving average 3260 will be concerned. The 1-hour level K line is under pressure from ma10 and ma5 and continues to fall. After last night's consolidation and pull-up, the current K line has re-run above ma10, and at the same time, macd forms a golden cross below the zero axis. This wave of 200 US dollars of rapid exploration has almost corrected most of the overbought situation. If the price continues to fall, or with the help of bottom divergence, it will slowly brew a short-term bottom. Today's gold rebound reminds that attention should be paid to the resistance below 3340, and the limit is below 3356. If it is not under pressure, it will still be bearish adjustment. Strong support is at 3260 or 3245. After the position stabilizes, it will begin to consider bottom-fishing. For today's short-term operation of gold, it is recommended to focus on rebound shorting and supplemented by callback longing. The short-term focus on the upper side is 3350-3370 first-line resistance, and the short-term focus on the lower side is 3300-3280 first-line support.

Potential Breakout in PalantirPalantir Technologies has been consolidating as the broader market struggled, and some traders may look for its uptrend to continue. The first pattern on today’s chart is the February 24 high of $99.01. PLTR peaked near that level in late March and again last week. However the stock cleared the resistance yesterday, which may signal a breakout. Second, prices consolidated at the 50-day simple moving average but have now escaped from it. Is the intermediate-term trend getting more bullish? Third, the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) is above the 21-day EMA. MACD is also rising. Those patterns may reflect bullish short-term momentum. Finally, the software company is a highly active underlier in the options market, averaging more than 700,000 contracts per session in the last month. (It ranks in the top five of the S&P 500, according to TradeStation data.) That could help traders take positions with calls and puts.

Nifty Analysis EOD - April 24, 2025🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD - April 24, 2025 🔴 Inside Bar Alert—Calm Before the Storm? 📊 Market Recap: Nifty opened at 24,284, marking a Gap Down of 51 points (-0.21%) from the previous close. The day began on a surprisingly calm note, but that didn’t last long. Within just 15 minutes, Nifty spiked over 100 points, rushing toward PDH (Previous Day’s High)—only to reverse sharply in the next 15 minutes and create a new intraday low. 📉 This wild back-and-forth action in the first hour was nothing short of a nightmare for intraday traders—especially those trying to catch a trend early. If anything, scalpers might’ve had the best time, capitalizing on the swift movements in both directions. For the remainder of the session, Nifty oscillated within the CPR zone, with a few false breakout candles that quickly retraced. The structure remained range-bound, indecisive, and tricky to navigate. 📅 Expiry Day Check: Deja Vu, Minus the Volatility If we set aside the unusually directional move of April 17th expiry, today looked like a textbook expiry day, much like the past 10 before it: Movement hugging VWAP Small false breakouts on either side No follow-through Today’s range: 132 points Avg range of last 10 expiries: 192 points This time, however, the volatility was muted, despite early session fireworks. 🕯 Daily Candle Structure: Inside Bar + Shooting Star On the Daily chart, today’s price action has formed a bearish Shooting Star–like candle, but here’s the kicker—it’s also an Inside Bar setup. 📌 What’s an Inside Bar? An Inside Bar pattern occurs when today’s high and low are completely within yesterday’s range (the “mother bar”). This signals consolidation or indecision, and often precedes a strong breakout. 📖 How to trade it? Wait for a decisive breakout above the mother bar high or below the mother bar low. Add confirmation with volume surge to gauge the strength of the breakout. 👉 Remember: The Inside Bar doesn’t predict direction—it just tells you a move is brewing. 📌 Gladiator Strategy Update ATR: 328.34 IB Range: 108.40 (Small IB) Market Structure: Balanced 🎯 Trade Highlights: No Trade Opportunity Presented — The structure didn’t offer any valid setups within strategy rules. 🧠 Index Performance Snapshot: Nifty 50: -82 Points (-0.34%) Bank Nifty: -168.65 Points (-0.30%) Nifty 500: -57 Points (-0.26%) Midcap: -71 Points (-0.13%) Smallcap: -6 Points (-0.04%) 📌 Key Levels to Watch 📍 Resistance Zones: 24,330 ~ 24,360 24,480 ~ 24,540 24,800 📍 Support Zones: 24,190 ~ 24,225 23,950 ~ 24,000 (Immediate) 23,820 23,660 ~ 23,710 23,500 23,400 ~ 23,430 23,200 ~ 23,190 🧭 Final Thoughts: "Inside Bars are like market whispers—subtle, quiet, but worth listening to. The next breakout might just surprise you." ✏️ Disclaimer ✏️ This is just my personal viewpoint. Always consult your financial advisor before taking any action.
