We have an action-packed week ahead with the Reserve Bank of India set to announce its monetary policy review on Tuesday and the expiry of January derivatives settlement scheduled on Thursday. Volumes recorded last week indicate that investors and traders are in sidelines and they are in wait and watch mood. Foreign Institutions (FIIS) are once more in the exit mode, having sold close to $1 billion (Rs.5000 Cr) in January.
What to expect next week:
Nifty has declined below the key support level of 2750 last week, signaling the continuation of downtrend from 3150. The next supports for the week would be at 2600 and later 2550/2500. Short sellers should watch out for sudden upward reversal from this area.
Short-term resistance for the week would be at 2750 and 2800. Failure to move past the first resistance of 2750 would imply that the downtrend is secure.

Reliance Industries - RIL announced its quarterly results and it did not have any major impact.The stock moved lower from an intra-week high of peak at Rs 1,250 (freak high rate of 1335).The stock is in a trading range of 1100 to 1250.An rally would be limited to 1250,from here on.
