Indian equity markets closed lower for the third straight week, with the Nifty50 slipping 0.7% to end below the 25,000 mark for the week ending July 18, 2025.
A sharp uptick in foreign institutional investor (FPI) selling has amplified the weakness. According to NSDL data, FPIs have offloaded Indian equities worth Rs 10,775 crore so far in July.
July 15–19: Time Levels Guide Market Moves
In our previous analysis, we highlighted July 15 as a pivotal date—and the market respected this projection. On Friday, July 19, once the low of July 15 was breached, the Nifty witnessed aggressive selling.
Even the high made on July 15 proved significant: a failed breakout attempt near that level on July 16 triggered fresh declines.
Critical support zones worked well last week:
24,978 acted as a crucial support level before Friday’s pause.
The 25,085 mark (July 15’s low) also played a vital role, as its breach led to a steep sell-off.
Precision in Time-Based Analysis: Intraday Accuracy Unmatched
Throughout the week, time analysis proved its merit with remarkable precision. Specific intraday time slots consistently aligned with swing highs, lows, and key reversals:
- July 14: 10:20 AM – Swing high, followed by a downtrend; 11:30 AM – Day’s low formed near this time
- July 15: 9:45 AM – Day’s low formed; 2:45 PM – Swing low marked with precision
- July 16–18: Multiple intraday pivots around key time slots like 10:45 AM, 12:30 PM, and 2:45 PM
