GIFT Nifty is signaling a flat start while broader global markets show mixed momentum. Nifty and Bank Nifty are near key support zones — oscillating between supply and demand levels early on. Keep an eye on financials, IT, and energy stocks for stock-specific action. FII outflows continue to weigh, while DIIs provide cushion. Trade with discipline — buy on dips or scale into high-conviction names with clear risk management. Let’s see if the market holds its support zones or tests resistance levels — stay alert and plan your trades carefully.”
