The Punch intraday chart shows what actually traded in the market at the open.
When the market opened today, Nifty started at 25894 and immediately dropped to a low of 25889 before moving higher. You can see these numbers on both the TradingView and Punch intraday charts.
Nifty futures also showed this jump—there was a 51-point gap, opening at 26105 (yesterday's close was 26054). The market really did open higher, and that's what actually traded.
After the market opened, all platforms updated their candles to show a much lower open/low value (25842) based on NSE data. But if you check the intraday or minute-by-minute chart on Punch and TradingView, you'll still see the real traded values (25889 low), while the daily candle reflects the 25842 value.
Why does this happen?
Sometimes the very first price ("open") published on the exchange for the index is so quick that many platforms don't catch it live. Data often gets updated a few minutes later. Most platforms adjust their open and low for the day after the market starts to match NSE data retroactively, but in my opinion, the actual trades you see are what matter most.
