S&P500 day trading course big week FOMC

S&P500 day trading course looking for a big week with voting, employment numbers and the Fed.  Some volatility entering the market. For the much hyped and anticipated FOMC meeting, it is universally expected that Fed members will keep rates at their ultra-loose level of 0.00 - 0.25 %. The key issue will be the initial size and subsequent increments of the Fed's 2nd round of quantitative easing (QE2). We are looking for an initial injection of asset purchases around the $500 bn level or something along the lines of $100 bn/month with a comment stating that the Fed will adjust accordingly to future US data. While additional increments of QE might be determined on a dynamic basis, based principally on inflation data, it will nevertheless push inflation higher. We suspect that these figures are very near consensus (hard to gauge) and deviation could instigate a USD reaction. In this case will the S&P500 move with or against the EURUSD pricing? USD positioning seems to point to the market being short USD - so a less-than-expected QE2 injection could spark a decent short squeeze and subsequent rally to the S&P500 emini futures.

S&P500 day trading course price action

S&P500 day trading course live trading room price action on the S&P500 emini futures contract. [caption id="attachment_3356" align="alignleft" width="300" caption="S&P500 day trading course S&P500 emini futures price action"]S&P500 day trading course S&P500 emini futures price action[/caption] This past week we have seen a double top on the S&P500 with resistance at 1193 .  The move down from the high has seen a bit of support at 1180 , and 1175 with price failure and a move back to 1180. We have a fourth attempt at the resistant trend line in this bullish channel with shallow pull backs. Support is coming in at 1174.50 and the next major support at 1167 followed by 1158-59.75 Resistance is of course coming in at our previous swing high at 1193, then 1197.50-98 .   Even Obama is cheering for the break of  1200, with his full press of cheerleaders led by Ben.  This could be the psychological break of the ceiling that could push the S&P500 to new highs. We could see a slight retrace to 1156, but the next move up could place us around 1344. If this occurs the 1100- 1350 trough could last for literally years.
