👉 Nifty Option Chain Strategy
Technically:
| Indicator | Observation |
|---|---|
| Moving Averages | Price above all key SMAs (20–200 DMA) — strong bullish structure |
| MACD | Strong positive (68.02) with rising histogram — momentum intact |
| DMI / ADX | DMI+ (31.97) >> DMI- (15.93), ADX 26.07 — strengthening trend |
| Bollinger Bands | Price near upper band (2835) — continuation but slightly stretched |
However:
| Indicator | Signal |
|---|---|
| RSI (64.65) | Near overbought zone |
| CCI (111.40) | High momentum, slightly overheated |
| Stoch / StochRSI | Extreme zone (>85) — pullback risk |
👉 Conclusion: Momentum remains strong but slightly stretched — avoid chasing highs, prefer dip buying or breakout confirmation.
Key Levels
Resistance
| Level Type | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Immediate Resistance | Rs. 2829 – 2865 |
| Breakout Zone | Rs. 2865 – 2947 |
| Momentum Zone | Rs. 3030+ |
Support
| Level Type | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Immediate Support | Rs. 2780 – 2745 |

Breakout Call
| Instrument | Trade | Entry | Target | Stop Loss |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HDFC AMC | Breakout Buy | Above Rs. 2865 | Rs. 2945 / 3030 | Rs. 2780 |
Breakout Logic
If HDFC AMC sustains above Rs. 2865 (R2 + Fibonacci confluence), it confirms a fresh bullish breakout, opening upside towards Rs. 2945 and Rs. 3030.
⚠️ With RSI near 65 and price trading near upper Bollinger Band, risk of short-term profit booking remains high — ideal strategy is buy on dips near Rs. 2780–2745 or breakout above Rs. 2865 with strong volume confirmation.
