Trading Plan for 3-Jan-2025

1. If Market Opens Gap Up (200+ Points Above Previous Close):
   
   If prices open above the Important Resistance Zone (51,779-51,876), watch for consolidation in this range. If sustained, it can act as support for an upward move toward the Profit Booking Zone (52,166-52,385).
   In case prices fail to sustain above 51,779, look for signs of a pullback toward the Opening Support Zone (51,605-51,659).
   📈 Action Plan:
   
   Wait for confirmation with a 15-minute candle close above 51,876 before entering long positions.
   Use stop loss at 51,779 to manage risk.
   📊 Trend Indicators:
   
   Green: Bullish Move Expected.
   
   
2. If Market Opens Flat (Near Previous Close):
   
   Observe price behavior near the Opening Support Zone (51,475-51,571). Sustained trading above this zone can trigger a recovery move toward 51,779-51,876.
   However, a breakdown below 51,475 could lead to a bearish trend toward the Retracement Level (51,232).
   📈 Action Plan:
   
   For long trades, wait for a breakout above 51,605 with stop loss at 51,475.
   For short trades, consider entry below 51,475, targeting 51,232 with a stop loss at 51,571.
   📊 Trend Indicators:
   
   Yellow: Sideways Trend Expected.
   
   
3. If Market Opens Gap Down (200+ Points Below Previous Close):
   
   In case of a gap-down opening near 51,232, watch for price recovery to test the Opening Support Zone (51,475-51,571). If prices fail to recover and sustain below 51,232, expect further downside.
   A bounce back above 51,232 can create an opportunity for a reversal move toward 51,475.
   📈 Action Plan:
   
   For long positions, wait for confirmation of a reversal above 51,232.
   For short trades, consider entry below 51,232 with a target of 51,000.
   📊 Trend Indicators:
   
   Red: Bearish Move Expected.
