SPX holding above support

The S&P500 tested the 14-month trend line again last session but recovered somewhat following the release of the Fed Minutes. The potential for tapering may have been what helped the US$ to bounce off a recent S/R level. Many instruments continue to hover near key S/R levels but the AUD/JPY is looking vulnerable to some further weakness so watch today with AUD Employment data.
