Share Market Outlook Today (15th May 2026)

Nifty Prediction Today

In line with our earlier view, Nifty has shown signs of stabilization near the bullish gap formed on 08 April 2026. The index has found support around the key 50%–61.8% retracement zone of the previous up move, highlighting buying interest at lower levels. Additionally, a bullish hidden divergence on the hourly chart indicates underlying strength amid recent volatility. These technical signals suggest that selling pressure is gradually fading. Hence, we expect Nifty to extend its upward momentum in the coming session as well.

Bank Nifty continued to show strong resilience near the bullish gap formed on 08 April 2026, with the index holding firmly above the crucial 50%–61.8% retracement zone of the previous rally. The hourly chart is also indicating a bullish hidden divergence, signaling improving underlying momentum despite recent volatility. These technical developments suggest that the recent corrective phase may be gradually losing steam. Going ahead, we expect Bank Nifty to maintain a positive bias and witness further upside momentum in the coming trading session.
