1 recap of the last session — already in the closing price, not counted
Implied gap ≈ 0.5 × global moves since the close (rough). News is context, not a trade signal — confirm with GIFT Nifty before 9:15 and the first 15-minute candle.
Headlines lean bearish (2.0 vs 4.5) but the overall score 46 is neutral — not enough for a news-only trade. Follow the War Room / option chain for direction.
