Tomorrow is FOMC Day. The 2-day FOMC Meeting Announcement is scheduled for 2:15pm EST. Any play made before the report is aggressive since SPX (and the market) tend to maintain the range made in the first 30mins of the day till after the report.
So we are likely to see it bouncing in a tight range (flat) till after the announcement, although everyone knows what Fed will do i.e keep rates the same, and seeing moderate growth but not at the pace Mr. Bernanke will like to see. As a result, they will keep doing what they have been doing to stimulate growth.

To make play tomorrow:
1. Conservative - enter after the report by having buy trigger in place if setup still intact, or
2. Aggressive (but my preference) - enter when it gets to entry point, but adjust stop loss just prior to the report in order to take advantage of the report.
