🟢 Nifty Analysis EOD – July 30, 2025 – Wednesday 🔴
Trapped in Illusion – A Day of Decoy Moves
Nifty moved 130 points today, falling short of the 2-week average range of 196 points. It formed its IB by 11:40 AM, marking the day's high and low early. For the rest of the session, it hovered between the IB high and the previous day high, eventually closing near the mean.
Despite a close below the open, Nifty managed a green close vs. the previous day—making it a classic "moboroshi candle" day, where visuals deceive sentiment.
