The index is now trading above its 10-20 DEMA, providing strong support at lower levels, said Dhupesh Dhameja, Derivatives Analyst, SAMCO Securities.

US Fed rate cut in focus

This week, global central banks will be in the headlines as the rate cut cycle is likely to begin. The European Central Bank lowered its policy rate by 25 basis points to 3.50% last week, following up on a similar cut in June, said Siddhartha Khemka, Head—Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal. 

The US Fed will announce its interest rate decision on Wednesday, where it is widely expected to lower the rates by at least 25 bps. Some of the other large central banks in the UK, Japan, and China are also scheduled to meet during the week, as added Khemka. The beginning of rate cut cycle is likely to be beneficial for emerging markets and could keep the overall trend positive for the domestic market, said Khemka
