🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD - May 15, 2025 - Thursday 🔴
Heart-Throbbing Wild Weekly Expiry by Nifty
📈 Nifty Summary
What a day! In yesterday’s report, we highlighted the potential for breakout on both sides—and Nifty said, “Why choose one? Have both!”
Opening with a modest gap-up of 28 points at 24,694, the index wasted no time and took a sharp dive, breaching the Previous Day Low (PDL) and hitting 24,494. This test of the 24,483–24,528 support zone sparked an immediate V-shaped recovery.
By 10:30 AM, Nifty had reclaimed its mean level, and breaching 24,600 triggered short-covering that pushed it sharply toward PDH, which was taken out in just 10 minutes. A rumored update from Trump on a USA–India tariff deal (unverified but possible catalyst) might have played a role—though, as always, price is the final news.
However, within the next 30 minutes, Nifty wiped out all the gains, only to enter a consolidation phase until 1 PM. Then came the real action—another breakout above PDH with strong short-covering and fresh buying. The rally took Nifty to a fresh weekly high of 25,116, closing near the highs at 25,035.
This wasn’t a regular expiry. This was a thriller.

The Nested Inside Bar setup we spoke of yesterday? It delivered. Clean breakdown of PDL without triggering trade saved us from a trap, while the PDH breakout delivered a 1:4 reward—textbook price action setup. With a strong bullish engulfing on the daily, expect continued strength with dips being bought.
