Sensex Previous Session Recap and Today’s Market Update
Thursday’s verified BSE Sensex session opened at 78,910.94, traded between 78,520.56 and 79,470.03, and closed at 79,310.01, up 2,008.61 points (2.60%) from Wednesday’s close of 77,301.40. Reuters reported the BSE Sensex at 79,467.15 at 9:21 AM IST, up 0.19% as reported. Against Thursday’s close of 79,310.01, the displayed level implies a calculated gain of 157.14 points (+0.20%). A later independently verified BSE quote and current-session opening/high/low figures were unavailable by the 10:02 AM IST publication cut-off.
Reuters reported at 9:21 AM IST on Friday, November 6, that Nifty 50 was down 0.09% at 24,515.3 while Sensex was up 0.19% at 79,467.15. The later NSE index-feed snapshots at 10:02:34 AM IST showed Nifty 50 at 24,617.60 (+0.33%) and Nifty Bank at 57,855.05 (+0.14%). These are different timestamped observations and should not be read as simultaneous quotes. Reuters also reported global risk aversion after a sharp technology-led selloff overnight: Nasdaq fell 5.5%, Dow Jones 3.4% and S&P 500 4.4%. Foreign investors bought about ₹150 billion of Indian equities on Thursday, their largest single-day net purchase in nearly six years.
| Sensex Price Levels | My Interpretation |
|---|---|
| Above R1: 79,679.84 | A sustained move above R1 would put R2 at 80,049.67 and R3 at 80,629.31 into focus; the latest verified snapshot remains below R1. |
| Pivot–R1: 79,100.20–79,679.84 | The latest verified observation is in this band: above the pivot, but without confirmation of a sustained break above R1. |
| S1–Pivot: 78,730.37–79,100.20 | A sustained move below the pivot would shift attention to S1 at 78,730.37, followed by S2 at 78,150.73. |
| Below S1: 78,730.37 | A sustained loss of S1 exposes S2 at 78,150.73, with S3 at 77,780.90 as the next extended reference. |
Sensex Levels for Today’s Trading Session
Scenario 1: Holding Above Pivot, R1 Yet to Be Reclaimed
At 9:21 AM IST, the latest verified Sensex observation was 79,467.15, above the pivot at 79,100.20 but below R1 at 79,679.84. A sustained move above R1 would bring R2 at 80,049.67 and R3 at 80,629.31 into focus. A single timestamped observation does not confirm continuation.
Scenario 2: Reclaiming R1 at 79,679.84
If a later verified quote reclaims R1 at 79,679.84 and sustains above it, R2 at 80,049.67 becomes the next reference, followed by R3 at 80,629.31. Failure to hold above R1 would keep the pivot at 79,100.20 as the next reference. These are conditional levels, not forecasts.
Scenario 3: Losing S1 at 78,730.37
A sustained break below S1 at 78,730.37 would bring S2 at 78,150.73 into focus, followed by S3 at 77,780.90. Thursday’s low of 78,520.56 is a prior-session reference, not a guaranteed floor.
My Sensex View
The latest verified Sensex observation at 9:21 AM IST was 79,467.15, above the pivot at 79,100.20 but below R1 at 79,679.84. The first upside test is R1; only sustained acceptance above it would shift attention to R2 and R3. A move back below the pivot would bring S1 into focus. Treat each quote as a timestamped observation, not a standing live price.
