Short term - Technical Outlook

Nifty 50 is likely to remain cautious, although the index showed some signs of stabilization after sustaining above the 23,200 level and repeatedly taking support from this region in the previous session. The near-term structure remains weak, and the index needs to reclaim the 23,300–23,400 resistance zone to strengthen the possibility of a recovery. A sustained move above 23,400 could improve momentum and open the way toward 23,500-23,600 region, while failure to reclaim this zone could keep selling pressure intact.
 
On the downside, 23,100–23,070 remains the crucial support zone. A decisive break below 23,070 could intensify weakness and expose the index to lower levels. The RSI near 30 remains oversold, although its gradual recovery above the average line suggests some improvement in short-term momentum. Overall, the bias remains cautious, with scope for a technical rebound if the index sustains above 23,400.

Long term - Technical Outlook

Nifty 50 is trading with a bearish bias after closing below the 23,600 mark. A sustained break and hold above the 23,800 zone would be crucial to revive upward momentum. Technically, a sustained move above 24,000 could strengthen upward momentum and open the door for a rally towards the 24,300–24,400 region. However, a sustained break below 23,000 may trigger profit booking and lead to weakness towards the 22,800 support zone.

Market View

September 18th 2026

Indian equity markets opened on a steady footing on Friday, with easing crude oil prices and firmer sentiment across global markets providing early support. The gains, however, remain uneven, with IT stocks coming under pressure and the sector declining more than 1% in early trade, limiting momentum in the broader benchmarks.

Crude oil remains a key source of relief, with WTI trading in the $96–97-per-barrel range, easing some of the pressure on India’s inflation outlook and import costs. The rupee has also strengthened modestly, trading around 95.70 per dollar as the moderation in oil prices and improved risk sentiment provide some support to the currency.

The early market tone remains steady but cautious. While softer crude and firmer regional cues are supporting risk appetite, persistent geopolitical uncertainty remains a source of potential volatility. Developments on the geopolitical front, along with movements in crude oil, the rupee and global markets, are likely to shape trading sentiment through the session.

Technical View

Nifty 50

Nifty 50 opened on a marginally higher note near the 23,335 mark, extending the recovery attempt from recent lows. However, the broader technical structure continues to remain weak, with momentum indicators largely unchanged and continuing to reflect subdued buying strength. A sustained break above 23,400 remains essential for the index to advance further towards the 23,500–23,600 region.
 
On the downside, the 23,200 level is likely to act as the immediate support, followed by the stronger 23,100–23,070 zone. Overall, the near-term outlook stays cautious, a decisive move above 23,400 would be needed to shift sentiment more constructively, while a break below the 23,100–23,070 support band would risk resuming the broader downtrend.

Bank Nifty

Bank Nifty opened near 56,173, slightly higher than its previous close, reflecting a tentative stabilization attempt after the recent bout of weakness. Holding above the 56,000 mark remains essential to sustain this stability and advance further toward the key resistance zone of 56,700–56,800, a level that would need a decisive breakout to strengthen the recovery structure meaningfully.
 
On the downside, 56,000 remains the immediate support. A break below this level would reignite selling pressure and expose the index to lower levels near the 55,800–55,700 support zone. The RSI remains largely flat around 40, indicating a lack of strong directional momentum in either direction Overall, the near-term technical outlook remains cautious. Sustaining above 56,000 would be important to preserve stability and support further recovery, while a break below this level could increase downside pressure.

Market support level is 23,200. Market resistance level is 23,400.
