🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD - May 9, 2025 - Thursday 🔴
🧨 Gap Down, Rebound & a Triangle Trap – Bulls Show Spine Amid Chaos
Opening Mood:
Overnight panic from geopolitical tensions shook the market’s foundation—but the bulls weren’t ready to surrender just yet.
🧭 Nifty Summary:
Gift Nifty had plunged to 23,760 late last night on news of escalating conflict—marking a 445-point fall. However, as the night wore on without further developments, markets began to stabilize. At the open, Nifty registered a gap-down of 338 points at 23,935, but the first 5-minute candle showed strength, racing to fill the gap.
After a brief attempt to break the Previous Day’s Low (PDL), Nifty failed to hold below and slid back to its origin. The rest of the day was a tug-of-war with sharp two-sided moves, eventually forming a descending triangle pattern—a sign of compression and directional indecision.
