🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD – July 17, 2025 – Thursday 🔴
📉 Sellers Grip Expiry Day — Big Move Loading?
Nifty started again with an OH (Open = High) formation and slipped down 94 points before 10:30 AM, marking the day’s low at 25,144. During this fall, it broke the support zone of 25,212 ~ 25,180. Although a retracement followed, it couldn’t sustain above the mean and eventually broke below the previous day’s low (PDL), closing at 25,111.45.
The weekly expiry was wild and volatile — especially from 12:30 to 2:30 PM. Interestingly, if we consider the total range of the last three sessions, it is just 166 points — well below average. This suggests a phase of consolidation. A significant move may emerge once Nifty decisively breaks the broader zone of 25,000 to 25,255.

📊 Daily Candle Breakdown
Open: 25,230.75
High: 25,238.35
Low: 25,101.00
Close: 25,111.45
Change: −100.60 (−0.40%)
Candle structure breakdown:
Real body:
Red candle (Close < Open): 25,230.75 − 25,111.45 = 119.30 points → Decent-sized bearish body
Upper wick:
25,238.35 − 25,230.75 = 7.60 points → Very small
Lower wick:
25,111.45 − 25,101.00 = 10.45 points → Small
Interpretation:
Nifty opened slightly lower, made a weak attempt upward, then saw consistent selling throughout the day, closing near the session’s low. The negligible wicks indicate that sellers were in full control, and buyers had little room to fight back.
Candle Type:
A strong bearish candle (almost Marubozu) with very small wicks → Clear dominance by sellers.
Key Insight:
The test of the 25,100 zone again shows weakening bullish strength.
If the next session breaks below 25,100, the fall may extend toward 25,000–25,050.
For bulls to regain short-term momentum, a close above 25,200–25,220 is necessary.
