NIFTY : Trading levels and plan for 23-Sep-2025

NIFTY TRADING PLAN – 23-Sep-2025

Nifty closed near 25,200, holding around the critical zone of 25,189–25,200, with multiple resistances above and strong support below.

Opening Resistance: 25,261

Sideways Resistance Zone: 25,261–25,296

Last Intraday Resistance: 25,379

Major Resistance: 25,479

Opening Support: 25,189

Last Intraday Support (Buyers’ Zone): 25,000–25,046

With a gap opening threshold of 100+ points, let’s look at the trading scenarios in detail:

1. 🚀 Gap Up Opening (100+ points above previous close)
   
   If Nifty opens near or above 25,300–25,320, it will enter a test zone of 25,261–25,296.
   
   A sustained breakout above 25,296 may invite momentum buying towards 25,379, and a further extension can take it towards 25,479.
   
   If Nifty fails to sustain above 25,296, then a pullback towards 25,261–25,200 can occur. This retracement may offer intraday shorting opportunities.
   
   👉 Traders should avoid chasing the initial spike. Waiting for 15–30 minutes for confirmation will help avoid false breakouts.
   
   
2. ⚖️ Flat Opening (near 25,180–25,220 zone)
   
   In case of a flat start, the immediate play will be between 25,189 (support) and 25,261 (resistance).
   
   A decisive move above 25,261 can attract bullish momentum towards 25,296–25,379.
   
   Conversely, slipping below 25,189 may drag Nifty back towards 25,046, which is a critical buyer’s zone.
   
   👉 This is the best scenario for breakout traders, as both sides provide clear risk-reward setups depending on the direction chosen by the market.
   
   
3. 📉 Gap Down Opening (100+ points below previous close)
   
   If Nifty opens near or below 25,100, immediate pressure will shift focus to the 25,000–25,046 buyer’s support zone.
   
   A quick bounce from this zone can trigger a recovery rally back towards 25,189–25,261.
   
   However, if Nifty breaks below 25,000 and sustains, it will trigger strong bearish momentum, possibly extending the fall towards 24,950–24,880 levels.
   
   👉 In this setup, option traders can look for put buying opportunities but must keep stop-losses tight, as volatility will be high around psychological levels like 25,000.
   

🛡️ Risk Management & Option Trading Tips

• [] Always allow the first 15–30 minutes for market direction to settle before taking trades.
  [] Trade near support/resistance zones; avoid entries in the middle range.
  [] Follow hourly candle closing for breakout confirmations.
  [] Keep a 1:2 minimum risk-reward ratio to filter low-quality trades.
  [] In options trading, avoid over-leveraging as premiums decay quickly on sideways days.
  [] Respect levels like 25,000, which act as strong psychological supports/resistances.
