Day Trading Course, Positive Eurozone auctions boost Euro while FED extends near 0 interest rates to push Gold.

This week better than expected US equity earnings were offset by poor economic data. Weak GDP in both the US and the UK, showed that final demand from the consumer is still relatively weak. Supported by the ECB’s supply of low cost funds to European banks, positive auction data in peripheral Europe helped European bourses remain on the offensive. And the FOMC surprised investors by keeping rates low and extending the date that they will remain close to zero.
FOMC and Earnings Drive Riskier Asset Sentiment. The dollar is broadly weaker for most of the week with European markets holding on to a better risk backdrop following another encouraging Italian auction, along with hopes for a Greek debt deal. However, Portugal and Spain still remain a concern with Portuguese yields on the rise and Spanish retail sales and unemployment disappointing expectations.
Discussions between Greece and its private sector creditors over a 100 billion Euros debt write-down edged towards an agreement, with bond holders seemingly willing to accept lower yields on their future holdings of Greek debt. The two sides were discussing a deal that would see Greece pay an average coupon below 4% on newly issued Greek debt. A deals would allow the EU to move closer to fiscal unity.
On Friday, the US released 4th quarter GDP which increased by 2.8% annualized. Output was driven by consumption, net external trade and inventories, with consumption boosted by the increase in real incomes as abating prices pressures should marginally boost real incomes. Expectations were for an increase of 3%, which was slightly disappointing.
On the earnings front, the US witness better than expected numbers from a number of large cap companies. Caterpillar, 3M and Apple all showed much better than expected earnings. Aplle beat expectations handily, selling more than 37 million iPhones. Apple also surged with its sales of its iPad, selling 15.43 million units, which was 4 million more than it sold in the previous quarter. Apple sold 5.2 million Mac computers, beating its mark of 4.9 million.
The FOMC took center stage mid-week by keeping rates unchanged and extending the time frame of when rates could change to the end of 2014. This initially helped riskier assets rally, which seemed to be relatively short lived.

We slowed down to a crawl today with a very tight and range bound trading day. Volume dropped off to 1.9 million today after yesterdays 3 million plus. Hopefully the market will face the piper on some of the valuations in equities and get this cleaned out in the third quarter. September is known as the worst performing month on the indexes and it has basically started off with the kind of direction to propel the markets lower. Lots of support here, but for how long?

Day Trading Course: Price moves strongly off of trend line
Day Trading Course, S&P 500 price is moving strongly off of support day traders are buying.
Day trading course focusing on the S&P500 emini futures support and resistance.
Initial jobless claims were announced today at 8:30 for the week of 12/03/2011. They fell 23,000 from the previous week, the lowest since February. The report was considered welcome, with the caveat that we need to see it supported in later weeks to believe it is good news! (Dare I comment on that?!) Then, during the hour before the opening bell, price ranged 22.50 points with bears taking control. The sellers had control for most of Thursday’s trading. Price moved steadily down in waves, ranging 25.50 points from the open at 1253.25 to close at 1230.25
Day trading course looks at price and direction, the support and resistance and the direction of the market.
If we look at a weekly chart we can see that price has touched the upper trend line and moved away from it. If we look at a daily chart we see price kissed that trend line three times before moving down. Is price far enough away to not be tempted to
kiss again or will it return or even go for more? Watch price action and see.
If sellers continue with control as we close the week, look for the next support around 1226.75. If price moves below that price, it could drop to possible support around 1214,
1210, and 1205. If buyers take control, expect resistance around 1256.50, 1266.75, then 1274.
