NIFTY50 – Pre-Market Analysis (July 17, 2025)

🗓 Nifty Pre-Market Outlook – July 17, 2025
After Tuesday’s bounce, Nifty ended Wednesday on a flat note, closing at 25,212.05 with a mild gain of +16.25 points (+0.06%). The index is now hovering just below the 21 EMA, signaling indecision among bulls and bears.
This pause reflects a classic consolidation phase after a pullback, and today’s session may offer better directional clues. Let’s break it down:
📊 Market Recap (July 16, 2025)
Nifty closed marginally higher after testing intraday lows near 25,100 but managed to hold above key short-term support. The 21 EMA (25,237) is now acting as a ceiling for prices, and the index is struggling to reclaim this dynamic level.
FII flows remained muted and volumes were below average, pointing to cautious participation.

📌 Wrapping Up
Nifty continues to consolidate near key resistance, and traders should stay cautious unless a breakout or breakdown confirms direction. Price action above 25,300 or below 24,900 will give the next trade trigger.
We’re staying patient and ready with our next move once structure confirms.
Stay disciplined. Trade with logic, not emotion. ✅
