Asia-Pacific markets are mildly risk\u2011on to mixed, with Nikkei and Kospi near record highs and Hang Seng futures higher, while US futures are broadly steady despite Venezuela tensions.<\/p>\n

\n<\/strong>Global mood: Asian stocks are extending a record rally driven by financials, defence and AI themes; volatility is contained, and dollar\/oil are drifting, not spiking.
\nGIFT Nifty: Futures around 26,388\u201326,397, down ~30 points, indicate a flat to slightly negative start versus Nifty\u2019s last close near 26,250.<\/p>\n
\nImmediate support: 26,200\u201326,150; deeper support: 26,000\u201325,900.
\nResistance: 26,350\u201326,400 initially, then 26,500 on the higher side.<\/p>\n
\nSupport: 59,700\u201359,500; key support zone: 59,000\u201358,800.
\nResistance: 60,700 first, then 61,000\u201361,400 if 60,437 high is taken out.<\/p>\n
\nDefence & PSU: Global defence outperformance plus Venezuela risk keeps Indian defence\/PSU names in focus.
\nFinancials & large banks: Bank Nifty supports at 59,500\u201359,000; dips may attract buying in frontline banks.
\nOil & energy: Crude reacting to Venezuela; ONGC\/Oil marketing\/energy-related names can stay active.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Some trade setups highlight buy ideas in quality midcaps (e.g., healthcare like Metropolis in media notes), signalling continued stock-specific action rather than broad index frenzy.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Geopolitics: US strike on Venezuela and capture of Maduro adds a mild risk\u2011off undercurrent in EMs but is paradoxically supporting defence and selected energy plays globally.
\nDomestic: No single India-specific macro shock; intraday action likely to remain level\u2011driven around the support\/resistance bands mentioned above.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Index approach:
\nAbove 26,150\u201326,200 on Nifty, bias stays buy\u2011on\u2011dips toward 26,350\u201326,400; below 26,000, be ready for a 100\u2013150\u2011point slide toward 25,900.
\nBank Nifty: Favour dips to 59,700\u201359,500 for intraday longs only as long as 59,000 holds; breakdown there shifts stance to cautious.<\/p>\n
\nFocus on high\u2011liquidity names in financials, select PSU\/defence, and quality largecaps; avoid over\u2011trading smallcaps on gap\u2011down\/open volatility.
\nUse clearly defined support\/resistance and smaller position sizes; today\u2019s tape looks suited for level\u2011based trading, not aggressive trend chasing.<\/p>\n
