Stock Market LIVE Updates: Technical view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: The Nifty 50 ended the session by once again testing the long-term rising resistance line first formed in September 2024 and retested in October 2025. With today’s close near 26,050, the index has approached this upper channel for the third time, underscoring strong momentum at higher levels. The intraday move from 25,850 to 26,040 reaffirmed 25,800–25,850 as a firm demand zone. A decisive breakout above 26,086 remains the key trigger for a faster move toward 26,150–26,250, and eventually 26,300–26,350. Immediate support now rests at 26,000, while structural support holds at 25,850.
