NIFTY : Trading levels and Plan for 08-Dec-2025

📊 NIFTY TRADING PLAN — 08 DEC 2025

NIFTY closed around 26,176, sitting just between the Opening Resistance (26,222) and the Opening Support zone (26,102).
Tomorrow’s opening reaction at these levels will decide whether Nifty continues upward into the major resistance zone or retraces back into support.

Levels from the chart:
• Opening Resistance: 26,222
• Opening Support: 26,102
• Last Intraday Support: 26,046
• Major Buyer’s Support: 25,958
• Last Intraday Resistance Zone: 26,366 – 26,419

A clear directional move will come only after Nifty exits the Opening Support–Opening Resistance region.

🚀 1. GAP-UP OPENING (100+ points)

A gap-up above 26,260+ puts Nifty near or above the Opening Resistance and may trigger trend continuation.

1. 
   1. If price opens above 26,222 and retests it
   • Avoid jumping in at the open.
   • Wait for price to retest 26,222 and show bullish structure (wick rejections, CHoCH).
   • Once confirmed → Long entry toward 26,300 → 26,366 → 26,419 (resistance zone).
   • Book partial profits inside the resistance zone.
   
   2. If price opens directly inside 26,366–26,419 (Last Intraday Resistance Zone)
   • Avoid fresh longs here — high probability of intraday rejection.
   • Look for bearish wick rejections → Short opportunity back toward 26,300 → 26,222.
   
   3. If price gives a strong breakout above 26,419
   • This indicates momentum expansion.
   • Upside targets open toward 26,480–26,520.
   • Trail your stop-loss below the breakout candle.
   

📌 Educational Note:
Gap-ups must be traded with confirmation and retests, not emotions. Institutions test breakout zones before continuing trend.

⚖ 2. FLAT OPENING (around 26,160–26,190)

A flat open near the middle of the chart’s structure gives excellent clarity for level-by-level trading.

1. 
   1. Sustained move above 26,222
   • Break + retest above this level activates longs.
   • Targets: 26,300 → 26,366 → 26,419.
   
   2. If price rejects 26,222
   • Look for bearish rejection or CHoCH.
   • Short trade valid toward 26,102.
   • Break below 26,102 extends move to 26,046.
   
   3. If price trades inside 26,102–26,222 zone
   • Expect consolidation / whipsaws.
   • Trade only extremes:
   – Long only near 26,102 with confirmation.
   – Short only near 26,222 with confirmation.
   

📌 Educational Note:
Flat opens allow structure to form naturally. Higher-lows = bullish. Lower-highs = bearish. Avoid guessing—react to levels.

📉 3. GAP-DOWN OPENING (100+ points)

A gap-down toward 26,000 → 25,960 puts NIFTY directly into major supports.

1. 
   1. If price opens near 26,046 (Last Intraday Support)
   • This is a strong reaction zone.
   • Do NOT short blindly here.
   • Look for reversal candles → If confirmed → Long toward 26,102 → 26,176.
   
   2. If price opens inside 25,958 (Major Buyer’s Support)
   • Expect buyers to defend this level aggressively.
   • Ideal place for a reversal trade.
   • Once reversal confirmed → Target 26,046 → 26,102.
   
   3. If price breaks below 25,958 decisively
   • Avoid catching falling knives.
   • Wait for a retest of 25,958 zone.
   • If retest rejects → Short continuation target becomes 25,900–25,870.
   

📌 Educational Note:
Gap-downs often create liquidity sweeps. Smart money accumulates positions at support before pushing price higher. Always trade reaction, not prediction.

🛡 RISK MANAGEMENT TIPS FOR OPTIONS TRADERS

1. 
   1. Avoid trading first 5 minutes during gap openings.
   High volatility = premium traps.
   
   2. Do NOT buy far OTM calls/puts after big gaps.
   IV crush + theta → Fast losses.
   
   3. Always use price-action-based stop losses, not premium-based ones.
   
   4. Never risk more than 1–2% of capital per trade.
   
   5. High IV → Prefer option selling (credit spreads).
   Low IV → Option buying becomes favourable.
   
   6. Take partial profits at important levels such as:
   26,102 / 26,222 / 26,366 / 26,419.
   
   7. Avoid revenge trading — protect capital at all costs.
   

📌 SUMMARY & CONCLUSION

• Bullish bias above 26,222, with targets: 26,300 → 26,366 → 26,419.
• Range-bound structure likely between 26,102–26,222 until breakout.
• Strong reversal zones:
– 26,046
– 25,958
• Gap openings must be handled with retest-based entries only.
• Trade level-to-level with strict risk management.
