What happened
Nifty snapped a three-session losing streak on Sept 10, 2026 with a late CAS recovery, closing at 23,477.80 (+0.20%).
The Nifty 50 snapped a three-session losing streak on Thursday, September 10, 2026, helped by a burst of buying in the closing auction session (CAS). The index closed 46.30 points higher at 23,477.80 (+0.20%), while the Sensex gained 138.36 points (+0.19%) to 74,902.59 and Bank Nifty rose 176.40 points (+0.31%) to 56,471.95.
The recovery lacked strength for most of the day: Nifty opened at 23,446.60, traded a range of 23,380.10 to 23,494.95, and hovered around 23,400 before the late CAS surge lifted it roughly 88 points off the day's low. HDFC Life (+2.36%) was the top Nifty gainer, driven by buying in select financial heavyweights, while HCL Tech was the top loser (-1.85%). Defence was the worst sector and PSU Bank g
Technically, Nifty formed a hammer-like green candle with a long lower shadow after a sharp decline — a sign buyers stepped in at lower levels. The 14-period RSI is below 30 (oversold), so a short-term relief rally cannot be ruled out, but the index still shows lower highs and lower lows, so the trend remains under pressure and the reversal needs confirmation from subsequent price action.
For momentum to build, Nifty must sustain above 23,495. The next resistance zone is 23,572-23,623 — the downside gap formed on September 9 — and a decisive move above it could trigger short covering. The 8-day EMA near 23,720 is the next key hurdle; the index still trades below its short-, medium- and long-term moving averages, keeping the setup weak.
Broader markets stayed soft — Nifty Midcap 100 fell 0.38% and Smallcap 100 slipped 0.07%. The macro backdrop is also heavy: Brent crude topped $100/barrel (~$102) for the first time since July after escalation in the US-Iran conflict, the rupee weakened to a record-adjacent 95.46/USD for a third straight session, and the US 10-year yield rose to 4.858%. Month-to-date, Sensex is down ~2.7% and Nift
Wall Street fell for a third straight session (Dow -0.77%, S&P 500 -0.48%, Nasdaq -0.64%), and most Asian shares ended lower on Thursday. Stock to watch: JSW Infrastructure, which has consolidated near the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement in a triangle pattern — a sustained move above Rs 345 could target Rs 358-369.

Oversold RSI and a hammer candle leave room for a short-term relief rally, but traders need confirmation above 23,495 before treating it as a reversal.

Brent crude above $100, a weaker rupee (95.46/USD) and a rising US 10-year yield (4.858%) keep the market on a short leash and cap recovery upside.
What to remember
Treat it as an oversold pullback inside a weak trend unless Nifty sustains above 23,495 and clears the Sept 9 gap.
Nifty snaps 3-day losing streak with a late-session rally to 23,477.80 — but is it a real reversal? RSI oversold, yet 23,495 and the 23,572-23,623 gap are the levels to watch.
