Nifty & Bank Nifty Pivot Points — Tuesday, 26 May 2026
Pivot Levels for Tuesday, 26 May 2026
Both indices closed near the lower end of yesterday's range — Nifty finished just 28 points off the low, Bank Nifty 113 points off. That sets up a pivot structure where S1 sits very close to the prior close on both, and the reclaim of PP becomes the first thing worth watching.
Levels I'm watching
Nifty 23,962 (PP): Price closed 49 points below pivot. Whether the index can reclaim and hold above this level early sets the tone — sustained trade above opens room toward R1 at 24,040, while rejection here keeps the prior session's weakness intact. The full R1–S1 band is just 204 points, exactly matching yesterday's range, so a clean break beyond either side is what would signal a trending session rather than a rotation.
Nifty 23,836 (S1): Only 78 points below the close — a tighter cushion than usual. Given yesterday's average-sized range, this level is well within a single session's reach. Behaviour here matters: a clean flush versus a defended bounce tells you which side has control.
Bank Nifty 55,203 (PP): Bank Nifty's range was 557 points — wider than the index has shown on quieter days — and the close is sitting 110 points under pivot. The 55,203–55,426 zone (PP to R1) is the immediate overhead supply band. Below, S1 at 54,869 is the corresponding line; the full R1–S1 width here is 557 points, mirroring yesterday almost exactly.
