Projected ES price action for the day: After yesterday's bullish trading activity, the S&P futures are trading neutral during the overnight session. Given the fact that the FOMC meetings begin today, the higher probability is for more two-sided trading leading up to the Fed announcement tomorrow, especially when prices are trading inside of the value area.  The key levels to watch will be the value area high/low and the previous day high/low. A breakout of the daily ranges today and tomorrow could provide directional opportunities as news from the Fed meetings begin to be released and longer term traders enter positions, which should correspond with an increase in volume. On an intraday basis, the bias is a cointoss.
