NIFTY Futures (15min) – Technical Analysis using SMC | ICT | Price Action
1. Price took liquidity below 22,405, sweeping sell-side stops — a common smart money move
before reversing.
2. A clear market structure shift occurred as price broke previous swing highs after the liquidity
grab.
3. Price is currently reacting from a bullish order block between 22,440 – 22,480, showing signs
of accumulation.
4. The entry aligns with ICT’s Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) zone near the 61.8% Fibonacci
retracement level.
5. Price was consolidating in a tight range (5min) and has now started breaking out to the
upside.
6. There is a visible imbalance / fair value gaps between 22,760 – 22,920 that price may look to
fill.
7. Immediate targets are:
– 22,760 (start of imbalance)
– 22,920 (buy-side liquidity above recent highs)
– 23,250 (clean inefficiency zone)
– 23,310 (major resistance / previous high)
8. The setup becomes invalid if price breaks and closes below 22,405 — that’s the stop-loss level.
