On most FOMC days SP500 went up and close near the high distal of the candle, occasionally FOMC cause reversals, but the up potential is dominating in the last 5 FOMCs.
So it may be safer to scalp a long trade than short. If this FOMC causes a reversal, then the downside will be huge.

Will test 2100 again, good chance to take a short there, stop loss at new high.
What about apple and others ? (After-market drop AAPL -8%, FB -2.5%, GOOG -2.5%)

noticed that, at least now the SPX futures are not acting to the drop. Unless FANG keep dropping tomorrow. There's no enough reason to take the down side as a day trader, but I will consider building long term short position.

look at crude... it rules the day for now. can drop hard on this APi pop. or they force old shorts to cover before it drops back down to 20;s in summer.
