September 16 itself was comparatively calm. Coal India moved just ₹5 during the session and ended very close to its high. Its closing price was also within less than ₹5 of each of the 50-day, 100-day and 200-day DMAs, making the moving-average comparison unusually compressed. Those tight price relationships contrasted with the wider differences among the stock's historical return periods.
