How the Nifty 50 performed yesterday
Indian equities began the week on a positive note, with benchmark indices extending gains for a second straight session amid firm global cues. The Nifty 50 added 82 points, or 0.32%, to close at 25,574.35, after oscillating between 25,503 and 25,653 through the session. Broader market sentiment remained mixed, as the advance-decline ratio stood at 1,502 advances against 1,637 declines, reflecting mild profit-booking in the mid- and small-cap segments.
Sectorally, IT (+1.6%) led the upmove on the back of renewed buying in large-cap tech stocks, followed by pharma (+0.95%), consumer durables (+0.38%), and auto (+0.30%). In contrast, FMCG (-0.19%), media (-1.04%), and PSU banks (-0.14%) witnessed selling pressure.
The index found stability around the 21-day moving average (21-DMA), indicating that the prevailing uptrend remains intact despite recent consolidation. The broader price action suggests a healthy pullback within an ongoing bullish phase, with buyers gradually regaining control after last week’s corrective move. Momentum indicators are showing early signs of improvement. The RSI, currently at 52, has turned upward from neutral territory, reflecting easing downside pressure and a potential buildup in positive momentum.
Meanwhile, the MACD continues to remain in a bearish crossover, but the narrowing histogram suggests waning selling strength and the possibility of a momentum reversal if follow-through buying continues.
According to O'Neil’s methodology of market direction, the market status has been shifted to an "Confirmed Uptrend" as decisively surpassed its previous rally high of 25,670 to register a new 52-week.
The index ended on a positive note, forming a higher high–higher low pattern on the daily chart after six consecutive sessions of weakness. Following a sharp rebound from the downward-sloping trendline connecting the June 2025 and September 2025 highs, the index encountered resistance near its 21-DMA, leading to partial profit booking. On the downside, immediate support lies at 25,300, while a stronger base around 25,000 continues to underpin the broader uptrend. For bullish momentum to strengthen, the index must maintain a higher high–higher low structure and sustain above 25,700, with a decisive breakout above 26,000 confirming the continuation of the uptrend.
How did the Nifty Bank perform yesterday?
The Nifty Bank began on a weak note but swiftly recovered after brief volatility, turning positive and maintaining strength for most of the session. It concluded the day on a firm note, forming a bullish candle with a higher high and higher low on the daily chart. The index continues to trade well above its key moving averages, indicating solid upward momentum.
The Nifty Bank opened at 57,846.20, touched an intraday high of 58,097.20, and a low of 57,846.20 before closing at 57,937.55, signalling renewed buying interest and strengthening bullish sentiment in the market. Overall, the sentiment remains optimistic, with traders anticipating further upside. Sustained movement above current levels could pave the way for fresh highs in the near term.
The momentum indicator RSI is moving sideways and is currently positioned around the 61 mark, indicating a neutral yet resilient undertone in market momentum. Meanwhile, the MACD has given a negative crossover, suggesting short-term consolidation; however, it continues to trade above the central line, reflecting underlying strength.
According to the O’Neil methodology for assessing market direction, the index remains in a confirmed uptrend, implying that despite minor fluctuations, the broader market structure continues to favour bullish sentiment and potential upside.
The index remains firmly positioned above all key moving averages, reflecting strong underlying momentum and the absence of any bearish signals as long as it sustains above the 21-DMA placed near 57,595. A sustained move above this crucial level could open the path for an extended rally toward the 58,500-59,000 zone in the coming sessions. On the downside, immediate support is seen between 57,600 and 57,000, and a decisive breach below this range may trigger a short-term correction. Overall, the trend structure remains constructive, with traders advised to maintain a buy-on-dips approach amid prevailing strength and positive sentiment.
