Technical analyst Pravesh Gaur further said that the US Federal Reserve's decision on interest rates this week, movement of the rupee against the dollar, crude oil and commodity prices will determine market movements.
He said that apart from this, investments by Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) and Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) will also be closely monitored.
Arvinder Singh Nanda, Senior Vice President, Master Capital Services Ltd, said the market outlook will be determined by key domestic and global economic data.
He said the future direction of the market will be determined by WPI inflation in India, CPI inflation in China, GDP data in Britain, CPI data in the US and interest rate decision by the US Federal Reserve.
