Nifty 22,520.45. Support 22,200-21,900; resistance 22,800-23,200.

Jigar S. Patel, Senior Manager of Equity Technical Research at Anand Rathi Share and Stock Brokers, says the index is trying to establish a durable base and the price-RSI combination indicates a potential bullish divergence, and the firm&#8217;s 12 October note describes a triple bullish divergence across the Nifty 50, Nifty 500, Midcap 100 and Midcap 150. The Nifty closed at 22,520.45 on 9 October, up 1.30%, with support at 22,200 to 21,900 and resistance at 22,800 to 23,200, and a divergence is a warning of a possible reversal and not a buy signal. It is confirmed only when the price breaks above a recent swing high with rising momentum, and it fails when the price makes a new low and the RSI follows.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Nifty bullish divergence has appeared after a long fall, since the index ended an eight-week losing streak on Friday and is still about 15% below its September 2024 peak. Technical analysts watch such signals because momentum often turns before price does, but they also fail often in strong downtrends.<\/p>\n<p>If you trade or invest around index levels, this article covers what a Nifty bullish divergence is, what Anand Rathi&#8217;s analysts said, the levels that matter, a confirmation checklist, how the signal can fail, scenarios, the risks and what to watch next.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><strong><a
