NIFTY : Trading levels and Plan for 26-Sep-2025

NIFTY TRADING PLAN – 25-Sep-2025

Nifty closed around 25,060.90, and the chart shows critical levels for the upcoming session. Traders should focus on the Opening Support Zone: 24,994 – 25,046 and Opening Resistance Zone: 25,144 – 25,167. Major intraday boundaries are set at 24,800 (Support) and 25,325 (Resistance).

🚀 Scenario 1: Gap Up Opening (100+ points)

1. [] If Nifty opens above 25,160+, it will directly enter the Opening Resistance Zone. Traders should watch whether price sustains above this zone or shows rejection.
   [] Sustaining above 25,167 can lead to bullish momentum towards the last intraday resistance at 25,210 and further extension to 25,325.
   
2. If rejection occurs, price may slip back to the support zone of 25,046–24,994, where buying interest may re-emerge.
   

👉 Educational Note: A strong gap-up often traps late buyers. Wait for the first 15–30 minutes to confirm if the breakout sustains before entering.

⚖️ Scenario 2: Flat Opening (within ±100 points)

1. [] A flat start near 25,060 means price will hover close to the Opening Support Zone.
   [] Holding above 25,046 can trigger an upward move towards 25,144–25,167 resistance. If broken, it opens the path for 25,210 → 25,325.
   
2. On the downside, failure to hold 25,046 may bring quick selling towards 24,994, and extended weakness can test the last intraday support of 24,800.
   

👉 Educational Note: Flat openings are usually safer for directional trades since they allow traders to align with intraday trend rather than chasing gaps.

📉 Scenario 3: Gap Down Opening (100+ points)

1. [] A gap-down below 24,960 will pressure the market, pushing it closer to the Opening Support Zone (24,994–25,046).
   [] If Nifty breaks below 24,994 and sustains, expect selling pressure towards the last intraday support at 24,800.
   
2. However, if support holds, a sharp short-covering bounce may lift Nifty back towards 25,046 → 25,144 levels.
   

👉 Educational Note: Gap-down openings are often emotional reactions to global cues. Avoid panic entries; instead, wait for price to show whether the support zone holds.

🛡️ Risk Management Tips for Options Traders

• [] Always define your stop-loss on hourly closing basis to avoid noise from smaller candles.
  [] Avoid over-leveraging; trade with limited lots suitable for your capital.
  [] Do not chase gaps. Let the first 30 minutes decide market direction.
  [] Prefer spreads (like Bull Call or Bear Put Spreads) near resistance/support zones to manage premium decay.
  
• Keep risk-to-reward at least 1:2 before entering trades.
  

📌 Summary & Conclusion

• [] Bullish Trigger: Above 25,167, expect momentum towards 25,210 → 25,325.
  [] Neutral Zone: Between 25,046 – 25,144, price may consolidate before choosing direction.
  
• Bearish Trigger: Below 24,994, weakness may extend towards 24,800.
  

Traders should remain flexible and adapt to intraday price action. Waiting for confirmation after the open will help in avoiding false breakouts and improve probability of success.
