How these tools work ↗

Research tools for Nifty 50. Closing data through 2026-11-05; history starts 1999-01-01.

20-session closing breakout

20-session Closing Breakout

The latest closing level is above every close in the preceding 20 available sessions. It identifies recent closing strength.

Read the guide

Breakout active

Latest close: 24,536.60 · Previous 20-session highest close: 23,960.60.

Today is excluded from the reference level. A breakout can fail; it is a research prompt.

ATR volatility (14)

ATR Volatility

ATR measures the size of daily price ranges, including gaps from the previous close. It measures movement, not its direction.

Read the guide

Unavailable

ATR needs 15 consecutive imported sessions with daily highs, lows and closes.

Measures movement, not direction. Index points are not an ETF’s price or a guaranteed stop distance.

Drawdown in rupees

Drawdown in Rupees

Translate a historical percentage decline into an example rupee loss. This makes the size of a decline easier to understand.

Read the guide

Enter a hypothetical amount at a peak to see the effect of a repeat of a recorded decline.

Historical decline15.56%
Example loss₹155.60
Amount after decline₹844.40
Gain needed to recover18.43%

Historical illustration, not a future loss forecast or a maximum-loss limit. Uses available closes; missing sessions can understate declines. Intraday declines, dividends, fund costs and taxes are excluded. Your amount stays in this browser.

Read the guide

Annualized returns of the stored index series across monthly historical windows. Compare the range of outcomes over different holding periods.
