The Nifty 50 fell from 25,800 to the 25,400 area, with price moving towards 25,550 and then reaching a low of 25,388. The move was described as a drop of more than 400 points.<\/p>\n
The video focuses on an \u201cAlternate Scenario\u201d based on Elliott Wave analysis and reviews how the index moved into the 25,550 zone. It then assesses whether the decline offers a potential buying setup or whether the market could face a deeper correction.<\/p>\n
It also includes a technical review of Nifty, Bank Nifty, Indigo, Bitcoin, MCX Silver, and Comex Gold. The content is presented by Abhishek H. Singh, a financial analyst with over 10 years of experience in Elliott Wave Theory.<\/p>\n
We have just witnessed the Nifty fall over 400 points, moving from the 25,800s to a low near 25,388. While this sparked widespread panic, for us it was a predicted alternate scenario, bringing the index right into a key support zone. The immediate question is whether this is a valuable buying opportunity or the beginning of a much deeper slide.<\/p>\n
For derivative traders, the most telling sign of this nervousness is the India VIX, which has surged over 25% in the last week to trade near 17.5. This spike from the comfortable sub-14 levels of January 2026 means option premiums are now significantly higher. This makes selling options more profitable but also riskier if volatility continues to climb.<\/p>\n
Looking at institutional flows, foreign investors have been net sellers, pulling out approximately \u20b915,000 crore from Indian equities over the last ten trading sessions. This selling pressure has been a primary driver of the recent fall. However, domestic institutions have absorbed much of this selling, providing a cushion around the 25,400-25,500 levels.<\/p>\n
The derivatives data shows the Nifty’s Put-Call Ratio has dipped to 0.80, suggesting bearish sentiment is becoming stretched and the market may be oversold in the short term. We are seeing a massive build-up in open interest for 25,500 strike puts, which should now act as a critical support level for the upcoming weekly expiry. On the upside, the 26,000 strike has the highest concentration of call writers, forming a formidable ceiling.<\/p>\n
Looking back to 2025, we saw a similar sharp pullback of around 3% in August before the market consolidated and resumed its upward trend towards the end of the year. Historically, such quick corrections during a bull market have often presented buying opportunities. The key difference now is the heightened concern over global inflation figures, particularly from the United States.<\/p>\n
This weakness is not isolated, as the Bank Nifty has also broken below its crucial 56,000 support level, contributing heavily to the Nifty’s decline. Amidst this equity turmoil, safe-haven assets like Gold and Silver have seen renewed interest. Comex Gold is pushing back towards $2,100 an ounce as traders hedge against the uncertainty.<\/p>\n
