Mastering the Trading Triad: Market, Trade, and Trader for Profitable Decisions

As Discussed in Last Analysis

Nifty reacted from the 23,800 zone, showing increased volatility and weak market breadth. Tomorrow, two significant Bayer rules come into effect, signaling a potential trend change and increased market swings.

Key Bayer Rules in Effect

Bayer Rule 22:
“The trend changes if retrograde Mercury passes over the Sun (Sun Conjunct Rx Mercury).”
Historically, this has triggered strong reversals or trend acceleration within 1-3 trading sessions.

Bayer Rule 14:
“Venus movements in geocentric longitude using a unit of 1°9’13” often signal key reversals.”
This is especially important for financial and FMCG stocks—watch for possible trend shifts.

Key Levels to Watch

Bearish Breakdown Below 23,637 (Quarterly Open):
→ Could trigger a quick drop toward 23,521 / 23,411.

Bullish Case:
→ If Nifty holds 23,637 and reclaims 23,750, bulls may attempt another push toward 23,868/24000.

With Bayer Rules 22 & 14 in effect, a decisive move is likely. Watch 23,637 closely for confirmation!

Nifty has confirmed a perfect reversal, aligning with Bayer Rule 14 & 22, as discussed in the video below. The index closed below the quarterly open price of 23,637, signaling bearish momentum.

Additionally, last month’s expiry was at 22,508, and Nifty is still 900 points above that level. However, with the current weakness, another gap-down opening is likely tomorrow.

Key Levels to Watch

Crucial Support Zone: 23,400–23,433
→ If bulls fail to defend this range, expect a further decline to 23,255.

Bullish Reversal Only Above: 23,561
→ For any meaningful upside, Nifty must reclaim 23,561.

A break below 23,400 could accelerate selling toward 23,255.
A bounce above 23,561 could trigger short-covering toward 23,637.
Expect increased volatility—manage risk carefully.
Intraday traders should focus on first 15-minute high/low for trend confirmation.

Final Thoughts: Bayer rules played out as expected—now, all eyes on 23,400 for the next major move!
