NIFTY OUTLOOK FOR 02/05/2025

Market Sentiment and Recent Performance

·         Nifty closed nearly flat in the last two sessions, reflecting indecision amid ongoing geopolitical tensions and profit booking

·         The advance-decline ratio has been negative, with more stocks declining than advancing, indicating underlying bearish sentiment

·         Sector rotation is visible: while real estate and telecom have shown strength, financials and select large-caps (like Bajaj Finance, Trent, Tata Motors) have faced pressure.

Key Technical Levels

Level

Importance

24,400–24,600

Resistance

24,334

Last close

24,100–23,800

Support zone

Upside Potential: Nifty can move higher if it sustains above 24,400, with resistance expected around 24,600

·         Downside Risk: If Nifty falls below 24,100, further declines toward 23,800 are possible

·         Options Data: Highest call writing at 24,400 and highest put writing at 24,100 suggest a tight trading range and potential for volatility

Factors to Watch

·         Geopolitical Tensions: India-Pakistan developments are keeping markets cautious and could trigger sharp moves in either direction4.

·         Earnings Season: Stock-specific action is likely as companies announce quarterly results.

·         Global Cues: US-India trade talks and global market trends will influence direction

·         Sectoral Trends: Real estate and telecom may outperform, while financials and IT could remain under pressure

Trading Strategy

·         Range-bound Approach: Expect Nifty to trade between 24,100 and 24,400. Breakouts above or below these levels could set the next trend.

·         Short-term Bias: Cautious to neutral, with a slight bearish tilt unless 24,400 is convincingly crossed.

·         Stock Selection: Focus on sectors showing relative strength (realty, telecom) and be cautious with financials and overbought stocks.

Summary:
For 2 May 2025, Nifty is likely to remain volatile and range-bound between 24,100 (support) and 24,400 (resistance). Watch for breakouts on either side for directional trades. Geopolitical news, earnings, and global cues will be key drivers.
