NIFTY : Trading levels and plan for 22_Aug-2025📌 Nifty Trading Plan for 22-Aug-2025
Key Levels from Chart:
Opening Resistance → 25,124
Opening Support → 25,033
Profit Booking Zone (Last Intraday Resistance) → 25,308 – 25,363
Opening Support in Gap Down Case → 24,951
Last Intraday Support → 24,849
Previous Close → 25,076.95
🚀 Scenario 1: Gap Up Opening (100+ points above previous close)
If Nifty opens above 25,175+, bullish sentiment will dominate the early session.
Immediate hurdle is 25,308 – 25,363 (Profit Booking Zone). Traders should expect selling pressure here as short-term players may book gains.
Sustaining above 25,363 can extend momentum further, but risk-reward weakens for fresh longs.
If rejection happens from 25,308–25,363, index could retest 25,124 support.
💡 Plan of Action : Look for long trades above 25,124 with confirmation, targeting 25,308–25,363. Trail stop-loss below 25,033. Book partials at resistance and avoid fresh longs if market looks tired near highs.
📊 Scenario 2: Flat Opening (within ±50–80 points of 25,077)
Flat openings often cause range-bound moves until a breakout.
Price between 25,033 – 25,124 is a No Trading Zone . Avoid entering inside this range to prevent whipsaws.
Breakout above 25,124 can trigger a rally toward 25,308 – 25,363 zone.
Breakdown below 25,033 opens weakness toward 24,951.
💡 Plan of Action : Stay patient. Go long only above 25,124 or short below 25,033. Inside range, avoid overtrading and save capital for directional clarity.
⚠️ Scenario 3: Gap Down Opening (100+ points below previous close)
If Nifty opens near 24,950 or below, sellers will dominate.
Support at 24,951 may attract intraday buying or short-covering bounce toward 25,033.
If 24,951 breaks decisively, expect further downside toward 24,849 (Last Intraday Support).
Failure to sustain below 24,951 can trap shorts, leading to a recovery back to 25,124 resistance zone.
💡 Plan of Action : Go short only if 24,951 breaks with volume, keeping stop-loss above 25,033. For scalpers, a bounce from 24,951 can be used for quick longs with strict SL.
📌 Risk Management Tips for Options Traders 💡
Never chase option premiums after a big gap — premiums are inflated, wait for retracements.
Stick to defined-risk strategies (spreads, butterflies) instead of naked buying.
Always use stop-loss on options since time decay works against buyers.
Avoid over-leveraging — allocate not more than 2–3% capital per trade.
Book partial profits near key levels 🎯 and trail the rest.
