Nifty Analysis EOD – February 25, 2026 – WednesdayNifty 50 IndexNSE:NIFTYkzatakia🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD – February 25, 2026 – Wednesday 🔴 Harami Cross Standoff: Double Distribution Day Keeps Bulls in Check! 🗞 Nifty Summary The Nifty delivered a textbook “Double Distribution” session today, characterized by a morning bullish sprint followed by a sharp mid-day reversal. Opening with a 55-point Gap Up, the index surged another 137 points to test the Previous Day High (PDH). Despite a 2-hour attempt to sustain above the IBH and R1 zones within a narrow 40-point channel, the bulls lost steam. At 12:30 PM, a sharp 150-point liquidation filled the opening gap and tested the PDL. The remainder of the day saw the index oscillating around the PDC, eventually closing at 25,478.65 (Adjusted: 25,482.50) with a marginal gain of 18 points. Structurally, the index has formed a Harami Cross pattern, staying almost entirely within the previous day’s range. Crucially, the Nifty has now spent four sessions trapped within the massive range of the February 19th candle. While the bulls are finding it impossible to clear the Fib 0.786 ~ 0.764 ceiling (25,765 ~ 25,780), the bears are waiting for a decisive close below that candle’s low to trigger the next wave of selling. 🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart with Levels 📉 Daily Time Frame Chart with Intraday Levels 🕯 Daily Candle Breakdown Open: 25,512.60 High: 25,652.60 Low: 25,428.20 Close: 25,482.50 Change: +57.85 (+0.23%) 🏗️ Structure Breakdown Type: Bearish-bodied candle (Close below Open) within an Inside Bar structure. Range: ≈ 224 points — Moderate intraday volatility. Body: ≈ 30 points — Small real body signaling high indecision (Harami Cross). Upper Wick: ≈ 140 points — Heavy rejection and supply from the PDH/R1 zone. Lower Wick: ≈ 54 points — Buying interest protecting the gap-fill zone and PDL. 🛡 5 Min Intraday Chart ⚔️ Gladiator Strategy Update ATR: 294.03 IB Range: 95.50 → Medium Market Structure: Balanced Trade Highlights: 09:57 Long Trade: Trailing SL Hit (R:R 1:0.71) (Zone + IBH Breakout attempt). 12:44 Short Trade: SL Hit (Caught in the post-gap-fill volatility). Trade Summary: A difficult day for directional execution. While the morning breakout provided a minor scalp, the trailing SL protected capital before the 150-point reversal. The afternoon short attempt was caught in the choppy consolidation around the PDC, leading to a stop-loss hit. In a “Balanced” market showing IBL ~ IBH Breakout, the lack of follow-through is a primary risk. 🧱 Support & Resistance Levels Resistance Zones: 25,620 ~ 25,640 | 25,700 | 25,765 ~ 25,768 (The Wall) | 25,860 ~ 25,880 Support Zones: 25,370 | 25,327 (Critical Low) | 25,250 | 25,200 ~ 25,160 🧠 Final Thoughts “Confusion is the king of the current range.” The Harami Cross setup makes the next session’s High and Low breakout critical. I am watching today’s extremes closely to establish a short-term bias. If bulls can finally conquer the 25,780 zone (Feb 19 Fib level), we target 25,880. Conversely, a breakdown below 25,327 opens the trapdoor to 25,160. With no clear directional winner in this wild environment, caution is mandatory for both intraday and positional trades. Wait for the Initial Balance (IB) confirmation before committing if you find any Gap up or Gap down. ✏️ Disclaimer This is my personal digital diary and represents my own analysis and point of view.
