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

📊 NIFTY TRADING PLAN — 26 NOV 2025

Current price sits around 25,860, right below the Opening Resistance (25,950) and just above the Opening Support (Gap-down case): 25,781.
The broader structure is weak, but Nifty is approaching a strong support zone around 25,717–25,683, which may trigger sharp intraday reversals.

Key Zones to Track:

🟥 Last Intraday Resistance: 26,052 – 26,077
🟥 Major Resistance: 26,163
🟧 Opening Resistance: 25,950
🟩 Opening Support (Gap-down case): 25,781
🟩 Last Intraday Support: 25,717 – 25,683
🟩 Major Support: 25,516

🟢 SCENARIO 1 — GAP-UP OPENING (100+ Points)

If Nifty opens around 25,960–26,050, price immediately enters the sellers’ zone near the Opening Resistance or slightly below the Last Intraday Resistance.

1. []If price sustains above 26,052 for 10–15 minutes →
    ⭐ Upside targets: 26,077 → 26,120 → 26,163
   []If price rejects 26,052–26,077 zone →
    Expect intraday pullback to 25,950 → 25,900 → 25,860
   []A bullish retest above 25,950 can give a continuation long opportunity.
   []Avoid aggressive longs at open — gap-ups into resistance often produce whipsaws.
   

📘 Educational Insight:
Gap-ups near resistance are continuation traps. Always wait for confirmation (higher low or strong candle close) before entering.

🟧 SCENARIO 2 — FLAT OPENING (Near 25,840–25,900)

A flat open places Nifty right inside the neutral compression zone, making direction unclear during the first 15 minutes.

1. []Breakout above 25,950 →
    Targets → 26,020 → 26,052 → 26,077
   []Breakdown below 25,840 →
    Targets → 25,781 → 25,750
   []Avoid trading INSIDE 25,840–25,900 until price gives clear breakout/retest structure.
   []Best Opportunities:
    — Breakout above 25,950 (retest entry)
    — Breakdown below 25,840 (momentum entry)
   

💡 Educational Tip:
Flat opens help identify the day’s trend. The first clear breakout of the range usually decides the move for the next 1–2 hours.

🔻 SCENARIO 3 — GAP-DOWN OPENING (100+ Points)

A gap-down below 25,780 takes price directly into the Opening Support Zone and close to the Last Intraday Support (25,717–25,683).

1. []If price holds 25,717–25,683 with strong wick rejections →
    Upside targets: 25,781 → 25,840 → 25,900
   []If price fails to hold 25,683, next major support is:
    ➡️ 25,516
   []A bounce from 25,516 can provide a high-quality reversal long, but only after bullish confirmation.
   []If momentum remains bearish below 25,683, expect trend-day downside continuation.
   

📘 Educational Insight:
Gap-downs into major support often create the strongest reversal trades — but only after confirmation through volume + structure. Never jump early.

💼 RISK MANAGEMENT TIPS FOR OPTION TRADERS 💡

1. []Avoid trading the first 5–10 minutes, especially on big gap opens.
   []Use ITM strikes for directional trades to reduce theta decay.
   []Always keep a fixed stop loss — do NOT widen SL after entry.
   []Avoid averaging losers (it damages your risk-reward and psychology).
   []Low VIX → good for option buying.
    High VIX → prefer spreads or hedged selling.
   []Book partial profits at key swing levels; protect your capital.
   

⚠️ Golden Rule:
Your goal is not to catch every move — your goal is to stay in the game.
