MES MICROS TRADE PLAN Insta 20-Point Candle Land: How to Survive — and Profit — in Violent Markets Posted: Tuesday April 07, 2026 ☀️ AM BRIEFING Tuesday's ES futures morning briefing opened with a stark reality check: this is Insta 20-Point Candle Land, and the rules have changed. With Trump/Iran geopolitical risk on the deck and a rare 4% IV day fresh in the rearview, the overnight session delivered monster Battle Plan moves while the RTH open brought blood on the chart and a flatlined chop zone that demanded patience above all else. The MES micro futures trade plan for today wasn't about chasing — it was about waiting for price to come to you, executing clean entries at defined levels, and walking away green. Two Battle Plan trades delivered 20–40+ point moves overnight, and the live session added another 30 points to the total… all while staying out of the knife-catch zone. Knowing when NOT to trade is the skill today's session put front and center...

Today's Review OVERVIEW 2 Longs & 1 Short Three Battle Plans paid! Two Longs. One Short. Once again, we were looking for the right trades and the right trade location... The entire purpose of the Battle Plan fulfilled. Last night, the Battle Plan 2️⃣ & Battle Plan 3️⃣ provided a couple of opportunities to be long. I captured 30-points. Then during the RTH session… right after we ended the YouTube stream… we got a beautiful short off the apex of Battle Plan 1️⃣. In fact, I took the Battle Plan 1️⃣ short twice. Capturing ten points each time.   All Battle Plan price maps hit their target . I performed a 🎩 "Hat Trick" today… three independent trades that captured 10 points or more each. A total of 50 points today. Tuesday Livestream ▶ Join the Live Stream 🌙 OVERNIGHT 🔥 Battle Plan 2️⃣ and Battle Plan 3️⃣ offered opportunities.  Had one kept a single runner back 30 to 50 to 60 points, is not unreasonable.  Here is a screenshot from last ...

MES MICROS TRADE PLAN Three Battle Plans Paid — Now We Wait for Something New Posted: Monday April 6, 2026 ☀️ AM BRIEFING Three Battle Plans paid overnight and into Monday's RTH session — two longs off Battle Plan 2 and 3, and a short off the apex of Battle Plan 1. Total points captured: 50. Now the market is parked above the 30-minute high timeframe trend line with no fresh ES futures daily trade setups at the open, and the Iranian deadline looming large. This is a week that demands patience over impulse. With services PMI due today, CPI and FOMC minutes later in the week, and an Iran deadline hanging over everything, the market has every reason to be deliberate. We wait for something new. Weekly News Drivers & Session Schedule A loaded week is ahead. The Iranian deadline is the elephant in the room — not on any official economic calendar, but absolutely driving sentiment. Oil is also in play and worth watching closely. On the scheduled side: ...

Today's Review OVERVIEW Our Battle Plan Trades The Battle Plan absolutely crushed it last week.  If we can keep looking for the right trades in the right trade locations... the odds of success greatly tilt in our direction.  Because it's Easter weekend, I will not be doing a full review... you get the picture.  Thank you for being a member and trading live with me.  Expected-range This week's Expected-range is a little more tame.. 153-points.  Last week, at least two Battle Plan trades ran for more than 100+ points. What a time to be alive!  Capturing a 255-pointer this past week was my best of the year.  May your P&L go from the lower left to the upper right this week as well.  📊 ES Expected Range Options-implied weekly move — SPX ATM straddle applied to ES futures Range Low 6,459.09 ← ES Price 6,613.00 → Range High 6,766.91 Implied Move ±153.91 pts Implied Move % ±2.33% Expiration Apr 10, 2...
