Nifty Trading Strategy for 20th August 2025📈 Nifty Intraday Trading Plan (15-Min Strategy)
🟢 BUY Setup (Bullish Scenario)
✅ Condition to Enter Long Position
Wait for the 15-minute candle to close above the high.

This helps in protecting capital in case the breakout fails.
🔴 SELL Setup (Bearish Scenario)

🎯 Target Level Price
1️⃣ First Target 24,860
2️⃣ Second Target 24,835
3️⃣ Third Target 24,800
📈 Suggested Stop Loss (for SELL Trade)
SL can be placed slightly above the breakout candle high (i.e. above the 15-min candle which broke 24,890).
This avoids large drawdowns in case of a false breakdown.
⚠️ Important Notes & Trade Management
🕒 Time Frame: Use only 15-minute candles for this setup.
✔️ Enter trades only after candle close, do not act on wicks or intra-candle movement.
🔁 Trail stop loss once first target is hit in order to lock profits.
📊 Avoid trades if market is extremely volatile due to high-impact news or economic events (check economic calendar before market opens).
📉 Do not chase trades once breakout/breakdown has already happened and targets are halfway achieved—you will risk poor entry.

Bearish Fill in Nifty - Good sign for Bulls So as I mentioned earlier, buyers’ volume was 37 million higher than sellers’ volume – and that clearly reflected in today’s market. Also, I had noted that 25000 is a resistance zone, and that played out exactly. Even after such strong buying, the index could not break that resistance.
So basically, the plan worked exactly as expected – which means the market environment is now aligned with my trading style.
Now let’s talk about what actually happened today:
In NSE:NIFTY , today’s candle is a Bearish Fill, which usually forms near resistance due to short covering.
Here’s the logic – yesterday, bears thought the market would fall from here and went short. But today, as the bearish filling started, they had to cover their shorts, meaning they had to buy – and this buying pushed the market up only till the level where they had originally shorted – 25000.
So now this has become a crucial resistance. A sharp move can come if this level breaks.
Whether that sharp move comes or not depends on Pivot and Pivot Percentile. Let’s check them:
Nifty’s pivot is at 24955 and the pivot percentile is 0.10, which means it has tightened. If 25000 breaks and sustains, then there is a very high chance of a sharp move.
Support is at 24870, and breaking this would be negative. Because whenever pivot percentile is tight, sharp moves can happen on either side. Although, most of the time, the move follows the trend – and the current trend is still bullish.
Buyers won the day with 24 million higher volume.
NSE:BANKNIFTY also formed a Bearish Fill, and here too the Pivot Percentile is tight at 0.09%. If 56098 breaks, then sharp upside movement can be expected.
Talking about sectors – Smallcap and Financials look ready for a bounce. Keep an eye on them.
Now, let’s check how the setups I shared earlier performed today:
1. NSE:RELIANCE – up 2.78%
2. NSE:BELRISE – up 10.63%
3. #OLAELEC – up 8.71%
4. #SOLARA – up 6.52%
5. NSE:HYUNDAI – up 6.52%
6. #JAYNECO – 10% upper circuit lock 🚀
7. #ATHER ENERGY – up 5.21%
That’s all for today. Take care and have a profitable tomorrow.
Nifty AnalysisThis is Nifty Analysis for Wednesday 20th Aug 2025.
Nifty formed a bullish candle and moved up by 0.4% on Tuesday. Nifty is above short term EMAs in Daily timeframe, but is near immediate resistance and psychological level 25,000. Though short term Technicals indicate bullishness, wait for a pullback and enter trade. These 2 strategies may work best for Tuesday.
Trade Strategy 1: (Higher Probability)
Enter Long position (Call Option) after retracement confirmation around 61.8% of recent swing - around 24,860. Stoploss just below 24,800. Target 1 just below previous day high 25,000. This gives 1 is to 2 risk reward ratio. Target 2 is around 25100. This gives 1 is to 3.5 risk reward ratio.
Trade Strategy 2: (Lower Probability)
Enter Short position (Put Option) after bearish confirmation candles around 24,760 . Stoploss just above 24,810. Target 1 till Monday Gap Up filling around 24,670. This gives 1 is to 1.5 risk reward ratio.
Safe traders may consider Trailing Stoploss after 1 is to 1 risk reward ratio is achieved.
Note: This is for educational purposes only and not a trade recommendation. I am not SEBI registered. Kindly do your own research before doing any financial transaction.
Nifty Daily Analysis:-- Day_2Looking at the nifty on Monday sellers are in charge, on Tuesday the buyers are in charge. Nifty is stuck in the range of Monday and formed an inside bar. Monday open 24942 is where the price is getting again and again and bounces back up or down.
>> I have gone back to 2020 and seen than there is close to 29 incidence where Tuesday is an inside bar.
Price making a higher close on Wednesday is 31% chance.
Price making a lower close on Wednesday is 17% chance.
Price making a close inside Tuesday Range is 51% chance.
ATR on 39 period is 213 okay.
>>>If price moves up than the expected mean range is 213, 24980+ 213 = 25193, but in above we have a monthly 50% fib region + a monthly high of May at 25116, also 25000 as a big number.
>>>If price make a low than expected range is 213, 24980-213 = 24767 as a range. It has 24790 as a week 1.62% region acting as some sort of resistance plus gap 50% fib level.
So next day full prep.
We are still below psychological level and imp SUPPLY ZONE!!As we can see NIFTY remained sideways to volatile throughout the day as expected in our previous post but managed to close strong. We will stand by our analysis of selling the rise unless NIFTY sustains itslef above 25000 levels. Moreover, we can see 25000 level has been tested multiple time making it weaker hence any closing can show strong upmove towards new ATH so plan your trades accordingly and keep watching everyone.
Free Cash Flow – The Most Ignored Metric That Can Save You!Hello Traders!
When most people look at a company’s financials, they stop at profits.
But smart investors know that profits on paper don’t always mean cash in hand.
That’s where Free Cash Flow (FCF) comes in, the metric that reveals the real financial strength of a business.
What is Free Cash Flow?
Free Cash Flow is the money a company has left after paying all operating expenses and making necessary investments in its business.
It’s the cash available to pay dividends, buy back shares, reduce debt, or reinvest for growth.
Why It Matters More Than Reported Profits
Cash is King:
A company might report high profits but still struggle if it doesn’t have actual cash flow.
FCF shows if the business can fund itself without borrowing.
Signals Financial Health:
Consistently positive FCF means the company generates enough money to grow and reward shareholders.
Negative FCF for many years can be a red flag unless it’s due to planned growth investments.
Protects During Tough Times:
Companies with strong FCF can survive economic slowdowns without cutting essential spending or taking on expensive debt.
How to Check It
You can find FCF in the company’s cash flow statement:
FCF = Operating Cash Flow – Capital Expenditures
Rahul’s Tip:
Don’t just chase high profits.
Always check if the company is actually generating cash, because without cash, growth and survival both become impossible.
Conclusion:
Free Cash Flow might be the most ignored metric in investing, but it’s also one of the most powerful.
It tells you if a company can stand on its own feet, grow sustainably, and protect your investment in tough markets.

Nifty Market Structure Analysis & Trade Plan: 20th August🔎 Nifty Technical View
Higher Timeframe (4H)
Resistance Zone: 25,050 – 25,100. Beyond that, a bigger supply zone lies near 25,250 – 25,300.
Support Zone: 24,900 (immediate) and 24,700 (major demand base).
Price is currently holding above EMA and pushing into supply. If rejected, correction may come back to 24,900.
Medium Timeframe (1H)
Price has been consolidating around 24,950 – 25,000.
Structure is mildly bullish with higher lows.
Break and sustain above 25,050 could give expansion toward 25,200 – 25,300.
But rejection wicks show sellers active at current level.
Lower Timeframe (15M)
OB near 24,950 – 24,970 is acting as short-term demand.
BOS already happened on upside, but momentum is not yet strong.
A quick rejection below 24,950 will attract sellers down to 24,900 → 24,850 → 24,700.
📌 Trading Plan for Tomorrow
Long Setup
Trigger: Break and close above 25,050 with volume.
Targets: 25,100 → 25,200 → 25,300.
Stop-loss: Below 24,950.
Bias: Long only if breakout is clean, avoid chop in range.
Short Setup
Trigger 1: Rejection around 25,000 – 25,050 (look for wicks on 15M/1H).
Trigger 2: Breakdown below 24,950.
Targets: 24,900 → 24,850 → 24,700.
Stop-loss: Above 25,050 (for rejection short) OR above 25,000 (for breakdown short).
✅ Summary
Bias: Neutral near 25,000 until breakout or breakdown confirmed.
Key Levels:
Resistance: 25,050 – 25,300.
Support: 24,950 → 24,900 → 24,700.
Tomorrow’s action will be a range play between 24,950 – 25,050 unless price expands either side.
Nifty Intraday Analysis for 19th August 2025NSE:NIFTY
Index has resistance near 25000 – 25050 range and if index crosses and sustains above this level then may reach near 25250 – 25300 range.
Nifty has immediate support near 24650 – 24600 range and if this support is broken then index may tank near 24450 – 24400 range.
Nifty Entering Wave iv Pause Before Final Wave v Push?The current Wave structure indicates that Nifty has likely completed Wave iii, and is now expected to correct lower in Wave iv. This consolidation could provide a base before a final Wave v breakout toward new short-term highs.
**This is an educational market outlook, not investment advice. Please consult a SEBI-registered advisor before taking any investment decisions.**
The Index is at resistanceNifty CMP 24962
Elliott- the rally is the B wave and is over in my view. The C wave down fall should start from here. The minimum tgt is 24370 and max is 24K.
Fibs- fib confluence is at 25K and 25100 . Hence we know the Index is at strong resistance zone.
Geometry- the geometry is indicating the current zone to be a strong resistance.
Double top- it has formed a double top on the hrly charts.
Conclusion - hence to me this rally is done and a sharp down fall should happen from here.
Short-Term Trading vs. Long-Term TradingIntroduction
When people step into the stock market, they usually come across two main approaches: short-term trading and long-term investing (or trading). Both are methods of participating in the markets, but they differ significantly in terms of time horizon, mindset, strategies, risks, and rewards.
Short-term trading is like sprinting: fast-paced, energetic, and often risky. Long-term investing is like running a marathon: steady, patient, and endurance-driven. Both can lead to success, but they suit different kinds of personalities, financial goals, and market conditions.
In this detailed discussion, we’ll explore what each strategy means, how they work, their pros and cons, famous examples, psychology, and ultimately how traders and investors can decide which approach (or blend of both) works for them.
What is Short-Term Trading?
Short-term trading refers to buying and selling financial assets within a short period, ranging from a few minutes to a few weeks. The primary objective is to take advantage of price fluctuations and profit quickly.
Types of Short-Term Trading
Scalping – Trades last seconds or minutes, aiming for small profits multiple times a day.
Day Trading – Buying and selling within the same day, closing all positions before market close.
Swing Trading – Holding trades for a few days to weeks, capturing short price “swings.”
Momentum Trading – Jumping into stocks with strong upward or downward momentum, often influenced by news, results, or events.
Key Features of Short-Term Trading
Time horizon: seconds to weeks.
Tools used: technical analysis, chart patterns, volume profile, moving averages, RSI, etc.
Driven by: volatility, news, earnings reports, global events.
Requires active monitoring and fast decision-making.
What is Long-Term Trading (or Investing)?
Long-term investing involves holding an asset for years, often ignoring short-term fluctuations. The goal is to grow wealth gradually by benefiting from compounding, dividends, and the long-term growth of companies or markets.
Key Features of Long-Term Trading
Time horizon: several years to decades.
Tools used: fundamental analysis, company earnings, valuation ratios (P/E, P/B), macroeconomic trends.
Driven by: company growth, economic cycles, innovation, demographics.
Requires patience, consistency, and belief in the long-term growth of markets.
Famous Example:
Warren Buffett is the most celebrated long-term investor. He buys strong companies with durable advantages and holds them for decades.
Time Horizon: The Core Difference
Short-Term Trading: Profit targets can be hit in minutes or days. Focus is on timing entry/exit perfectly.
Long-Term Trading: Success depends less on timing and more on time in the market. Staying invested allows the power of compounding to work.
For example:
A day trader might buy Reliance stock at ₹2800 and sell at ₹2825 within a few hours.
A long-term investor might buy Reliance at ₹1000 in 2016 and hold until 2025 when it reaches above ₹2800, gaining multiple times the initial capital.
Risk and Reward
Short-Term Trading Risks & Rewards
Rewards: Quick profits, ability to capitalize on volatility, frequent opportunities.
Risks: High transaction costs, emotional stress, overtrading, large losses from sudden moves.
Long-Term Trading Risks & Rewards
Rewards: Power of compounding, lower taxes (on long-term capital gains), dividends, financial security.
Risks: Market crashes (like 2008 or 2020), company failures, inflation risk, long waiting period.
Tools & Techniques
Short-Term Traders Rely On:
Technical charts (candlesticks, moving averages, RSI, MACD).
Market structure and volume profile.
News-driven events (earnings, economic data).
Risk management via stop-loss orders.
Long-Term Traders Rely On:
Fundamental analysis (balance sheet, income statement, cash flow).
Valuation models (Discounted Cash Flow, P/E ratios).
Macroeconomic outlook (GDP growth, interest rates, inflation).
Patience and steady investment via SIPs (Systematic Investment Plans).
Psychology Behind Both Approaches
Psychology of Short-Term Traders
Need discipline and emotional control.
Greed and fear drive most mistakes.
High adrenaline, similar to professional gaming or sports.
Psychology of Long-Term Traders
Patience and conviction are crucial.
Must endure downturns without panic selling.
Delayed gratification mindset—willing to wait years for returns.
Costs and Taxes
Short-Term Trading: Frequent buying and selling means higher brokerage, slippage, and short-term capital gains tax (usually higher).
Long-Term Investing: Fewer transactions reduce costs. Long-term capital gains tax rates are often lower, helping wealth accumulation.
Who Should Choose What?
Short-Term Trading Suits:
Active individuals who can track markets daily.
Those comfortable with risk and volatility.
People looking for quick income rather than long-term wealth.
Long-Term Trading Suits:
Salaried professionals or business owners who can’t monitor markets daily.
People aiming for retirement planning, wealth creation, children’s education.
Investors who prefer stability over thrill.
Case Studies
Short-Term Example:
A trader in March 2020 (COVID crash) bought Nifty futures at 7,600 and sold at 8,000 within 2 days. Quick 400 points profit = massive gain.
Long-Term Example:
Someone who invested in Infosys IPO in 1993 (₹95 per share, adjusted for splits/bonuses) would now have wealth worth crores.
Blended Approach (Best of Both Worlds)
Many professionals suggest mixing both:
Keep 80% of funds in long-term investments (stable growth, retirement security).
Use 20% for short-term trading (to exploit opportunities, stay active, and generate extra income).
This way, you don’t miss out on compounding while also enjoying the benefits of active trading.
Advantages & Disadvantages Side by Side
Aspect Short-Term Trading Long-Term Trading
Time Horizon Minutes to weeks Years to decades
Risk Very high Moderate (if diversified)
Reward Potential High, quick Massive over time
Stress Level Very high Lower
Tools Used Technical charts Fundamental analysis
Costs High Low
Taxes Higher Lower
Skill Requirement Very high Moderate
Best For Active, aggressive traders Patient investors
Final Thoughts
Short-term trading and long-term investing are two sides of the same coin. One thrives on speed, volatility, and timing, while the other prospers through patience, consistency, and the power of compounding.
The truth is, there’s no universal “better” strategy. It depends on your personality, risk tolerance, financial goals, and lifestyle. Some people thrive in the fast action of short-term trades, while others find peace in buying good companies and letting time do the heavy lifting.
If you’re new to the market, starting with long-term investing is generally safer. Once you gain experience, you may gradually allocate some portion of your capital to short-term trading.
In the end, the best strategy isn’t about chasing the highest return, but about choosing the path you can follow consistently without losing peace of mind.

#NIFTY Intraday Support and Resistance Levels - 19/08/2025Nifty is expected to open with a gap-up today, reflecting positive sentiment in the market. If the index sustains above the 24,750–24,800 zone, fresh upside momentum can take it towards 24,850, 24,900, and 24,950+. A strong breakout above the 25,000 level may open the path for further targets at 25,150, 25,200, and 25,250+.
On the flip side, if Nifty faces rejection near 24,950–24,900, a reversal short opportunity may emerge, dragging it back towards 24,850, 24,800, and possibly 24,750-.
Overall, the bias remains positive with a gap-up start, but traders should keep a close eye on the 24,950–25,000 resistance zone for possible reversals.
NIFTY- Intraday Levels - 19th August 2025** Minor levels marked on chart (marked in orange lines) this level will become strong after second half .
If NIFTY sustain above 24877 above this bullish then 24997 to 25014/19/26/29/47 if it comes here it may give some profit booking trade, above this more bullish then 25137 to 25161 then wait
If NIFTY sustain below 24852/45/27 below this bearish then 24757/45/33 if it comes here I think it may give some bounce from here.. below this more bearish then last hope 24685 to 24661 then wait
Consider some buffer points in above levels.
