Short term - Technical Outlook
Bank Nifty remains comparatively stronger and is likely to outperform Nifty if banking-sector buying continues. The 58,000 zone remains the immediate resistance, while a sustained breakout above 58,300 would strengthen the bullish momentum and could pave the way for an advance towards the 58,500–59,000 region.
On the downside, 57,500 remains the immediate support, followed by the 57,200–57,000 zone. Sustaining above 57,400 will be important to preserve the prevailing recovery structure, while a decisive break below this level could weaken the near-term bias and invite profit booking. Overall, the near-term technical outlook remains cautiously positive above 57,400, with 58,300 serving as the key breakout level for further upside.

Short term Chart
Long term - Technical Outlook
Bank Nifty continues to trade with a cautious bias. A sustained move above 58,000 will be crucial to maintain the ongoing recovery. Technically, a sustained move above the 58,300 region could strengthen bullish momentum and extend the rally towards the 58,500 zone. However, a break below 57,200 may trigger profit booking and lead to weakness towards the 57,000 support zone.

Long term Chart
August 13th 2026
Indian equity markets opened on a cautious note, extending the recent weakness as persistent U.S.-Iran tensions and uncertainty surrounding the disruption of the Strait of Hormuz continue to weigh on investor sentiment.
WTI crude oil remains elevated in the $82–83 per barrel range, keeping concerns around inflation, India’s import bill and corporate margins in focus. Meanwhile, the Indian rupee remains relatively stable around the 95.3 zone, although continued geopolitical uncertainty and elevated crude prices remain key monitorables for currency stability.
Technical view
Nifty 50
Nifty 50 opened just below its previous close near the 24,431 mark and quickly slipped below the 24,400 level and also moved below its 20-day and 200-day EMAs, signalling continued weakness and increasing selling pressure in early trade. The 24,500–24,600 zone remains the crucial resistance band, and only a sustained move above this region could improve the near-term sentiment and support a meaningful recovery.
On the downside, the 24,300–24,250 zone remains the immediate support area. Sustaining above this band will be crucial to prevent further downside, while a decisive break below 24,250 could intensify selling pressure and drag the index towards the 24,000 psychological mark. Momentum indicators are gradually turning weak. The RSI has been sliding lower and is currently hovering near 51, indicating moderation in momentum and a cautious near-term setup.
Bank Nifty
Bank Nifty opened marginally lower near the 57,800 mark and continues to face pressure in line with the broader market weakness. The 57,800–58,000 zone is likely to act as the immediate resistance band. A sustained move above 58,000 would improve the near-term sentiment and could support a recovery towards higher levels.
On the downside, 57,500 remains the immediate support, followed by the 57,400 level. Sustaining above 57,400 will be important to preserve the prevailing recovery structure, while a decisive break below this level could weaken the near-term bias and invite fresh profit booking. Overall, the near-term outlook remains cautious.
Market support level is 57,500. Market resistance level is 57,800.
