  1. Nifty Short-Term Outlook:

    • Index has formed a doji candlestick after continuous selling pressure indicating indecisiveness or a temporary pause. Recent market activity has been characterized by weakness, with Nifty falling below the crucial support level of 24,700.

    • For the Nifty 50 to indicate a halt in the current downtrend, it must consistently form higher highs and higher lows. Failure to do so would maintain a bearish outlook, with resistance around 24,700–24,800. On the downside, immediate support is positioned at 24,300–24,250, while the more significant short-term support lies between 24,000 and 23,800, which corresponds to the low reached in August 2024.
