👀 WHAT TO WATCH TOMORROW
• FII/DII daily flow numbers (they set the day's tone more than headlines do).
• Bank NIFTY outperformed the headline index — banks usually set the next session's tone.
• First 30 minutes: gap follow-through or fade — let the open talk before you size up.

💡 TRADER TIP OF THE DAY
Gap opens fade more often than they follow through. Let the first 30 minutes talk.
