• Brent crude settled near $102.25/bbl
• Softer U.S. payroll data reduced immediate Fed-hike expectations, but elevated bond yields and geopolitical/energy risks remain important for Monday.

🌌 PLANETS IN NAKSHATRAS — 03 OCTOBER 2026
• Sun — Hasta
• Moon — Ardra
• Mars — Pushya
• Mercury — Swati
• Jupiter — Ashlesha
• Venus — Swati (turns retrograde around 12:45 PM IST)
• Saturn (Retrograde) — Revati
• Rahu — Dhanishtha
• Ketu — Magha

Astro-market observation: Moon in Ardra can coincide with a highly reactive, news-sensitive mood, while Mercury and Venus in Swati emphasize shifting sentiment, negotiation and re-pricing. Venus changing direction today and Saturn already retrograde suggest keeping Monday’s interpretation confirmation-based rather than assuming the first move will sustain. This is an astrological framework, not a substitute for price, volume and risk controls.

✅ MONDAY CHECKLIST
• First check crude oil and USD/INR before the open.
• Watch FII/DII flow and the opening gap.
• Let the first 15-minute range form before interpreting direction.
• Track India VIX around the 15 zone.
• Treat 22,200 and 22,500 as the first major NIFTY decision levels.
• Avoid chasing a gap without breadth and volume confirmation.
