According to NSDL data, FPIs have offloaded Indian equities worth Rs 10,775 crore so far in beneath the surface of price action, a subtler force is at work: time. 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 25,085 mark (July 15's low) also played a vital role, as its breach led to a steep again, the market demonstrated that both price levels and time zones matter in short-term trading decisions. 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 Such consistency confirms that Time Analysis, when combined with Price Action, can provide traders with clear, actionable insights. Outlook for July 21–25: Big Moves ExpectedKey Support Zones: 24,978 / 24,850 / 24,676 / 24,538 / 24,450 Key Resistance Levels: 25,080 / 25,147 / 25,320 / 25,434 / 25,566 / 25,600 Intraday Time Slots to Watch: Key Dates to Track July 22–23: Expect swift intraday moves — ideal for short-term traders and 24–25: Watch for a potential top or bottom formation. Positional traders should stay alert. Conclusion While many traders focus solely on chart patterns, indicators, or news flow, the underlying rhythm of Time remains a powerful yet underappreciated tool. The coming week holds key signals hidden in specific time windows. Stay prepared — sharp moves could catch the unprepared off-guard. (The author is Director, Wealthview Analytics Pvt Ltd.
