Market close
Friday, 18 September 2026
Where the Nifty 50 and Bank Nifty closed, the day’s biggest moves across the Nifty 50 and Nifty 500, and the stocks our agents flagged for the next session.
Nifty 50
- Prev close
- 23,270.6
- EMA 20
- 23,683.42
- EMA 200
- 24,284.74
Plan for the next session
Our bias remains Bearish. We need to see a strong, volume-backed reclaim of the EMA20 (23683.42) and then the EMA50 (23921.5) for any hint of a bullish reversal. Until then, stick to short-biased trades or stay on the sidelines. Avoid chasing breakouts or breakdowns near key levels without confirmation; look for pullbacks to resistance for short entries or wait for clear breaks of immediate support with accompanying volume.
Bank Nifty
- Prev close
- 56,055.75
- EMA 20
- 56,823.48
- EMA 200
- 56,734.82
Plan for the next session
Our bias remains bearish. We need to see a strong, high-volume reclaim and hold above the EMA200 (around 56,734) to even consider a bullish bias shift. Until then, avoid aggressive long positions and look to fade rallies near resistance levels.
