Nifty Analysis EOD – February 26, 2026 – ThursdayNifty 50 IndexNSE:NIFTYkzatakia🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD – February 26, 2026 – Thursday 🔴 Double Distribution Squeeze: Nifty Coils Within the 25,400 ~ 25,650 Range. 🗞 Nifty Summary The Nifty delivered another session of high-tension consolidation, characterized by a “Double Distribution” structure and a second consecutive day of Inside Bar movement. The day started with an 80-point Gap Up, landing precisely at the Previous Day’s Fibonacci 0.618 level (25,565). This level acted as a stiff ceiling, while 25,490 provided initial support, resulting in a narrow 80-point Initial Balance (IB). After grinding within the IB for over two hours, the index broke below the IBL to test 25,400, where the PDL successfully came to the rescue. Following a second period of distribution between 25,400 ~ 25,460, a sharp 120-point recovery in the final hours reclaimed the 25,490 level. Nifty closed at 25,496.55, managing a minor gain of 14 points (+0.06%) but finishing 60 points below its opening tick. This “coiling” effect within the 25,400 ~ 25,650 corridor suggests that a high-velocity directional move is imminent once this range is decisively breached. 🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart with Levels 📉 Daily Time Frame Chart with Intraday Levels 🕯 Daily Candle Breakdown Open: 25,556.30 High: 25,572.95 Low: 25,400.95 Close: 25,496.55 Change: +14.05 (+0.06%) 🏗️ Structure Breakdown Type: Bearish-bodied candle (Close below Open) within a 2nd-day Inside Bar structure.

The 27-point wick notwithstanding, we are in a confirmed Inside Bar consolidation. For the upcoming session, I am keeping a sharp eye on the 25,400 ~ 25,650 boundaries. A sustained break on either side will form my directional bias for the short term. Until that breakout is confirmed by the Initial Balance, expect more “ping-pong” action between these structural walls. Be cautious with positional bets until clarity emerges. ✏️ Disclaimer This is my personal digital diary and represents my own analysis and point of view.
