Nifty futures were in trading nearly half a per cent or 76.50 points down at 17,541.50 on Singaporean Exchange, suggesting a negative opening for BSE Sensex and Nifty 50. This week, markets will eye third-quarter earnings by IT companies, RBI’s monetary policy, India’s service PMI on the domestic front. While market participants will also track the movement of the dollar index, US bond yields, rupee trajectory, brent crude and FPI investments. Technical analysts say that even as the market will remain volatile in the near future, the 17650-17750 level would be the key resistance level for traders while 17400-17300 could act as sacrosanct support for positional traders. “Contra traders may take contra bet near 17300 support with strict support stop loss at 17250. On the flip side, partial profit booking is advisable between 17650 to 17750 levels,” Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research (Retail), Kotak Securities, said.
