The price action indicates a base formation above key short-term supports, with buyers gradually regaining control. The broader intraday structure suggests that the recent pullback is corrective in nature, and a continuation of the up-move remains likely if prices sustain above the breakout zone.Technical Setup:EMA 8 & EMA 21: The 8 EMA has turned upward and is attempting to move above the 21 EMA, reflecting improving short-term momentum. Price sustaining above this EMA cluster supports a bullish intraday bias and indicates that dips are being absorbed by buyers.

This shift suggests easing selling pressure and opens room for a move toward the upper band near ₹1,60,000 if momentum sustains. Pivot Points (Previous Day):
