📌 F&O Expiry Note
Today’s expiry holds significance with both Nifty and Bank Nifty forming inside candles on the daily chart. A decisive close above resistance (25,350 Nifty or 56,800 Bank Nifty) can trigger a fresh rally into July series, while failure to hold 25,100 or 56,300 may cause sharp profit booking.
🧠 CapitalKeeper’s Insight
“Markets are cautiously positioned with expiry pressure in play. Traders should stay nimble. Watch metals and railways for sectoral leadership, and a close above key resistance can revive bullish momentum across broader indices.”
