MES MICROS BEST TRADE SETUPS Battle Plan Where To Go Long... Where To Go Short. TODAY'S REVIEW: ES FUTURES Top Lessons From Last Week's Trading. Your browser does not support the audio element. STAND DOWN WHEN ES VOMITS. Every day this week, the Battle Plan carried the same warning: if ES starts dropping with 15-plus point candles to the south, stand back. No knife catching. No hero trades. No calling a bottom. We finally got that vomit day on Friday. The traders who listened were protected. The traders who ignored it found out the hard way. When the market starts liquidating, levels that bounced price perfectly all week will get blown through like they aren't even there. Your only job in that moment is to do nothing. TRADE LOCATION FIRST. ALWAYS. No level, no trade. Make price come to you. That phrase was said every single session this week, and it was right every time. The traders who waited for Battle Plan locations got...

MES MICROS TRADE PLAN Know Your Number Before Non-Farm Payroll Hits — Trade What Your Plan Allows Posted: Friday June 05, 2026 ☀️ AM BRIEFING It's Non-Farm Payroll Friday... and your MES micro futures trade plan should already be telling you exactly what to do. This session walked through the most important rule of any NFP day — know your weekly P&L number before the number drops, and let that dictate your risk budget. It also reviewed last night's core strategy short that captured 27 points using the three-contract trailing system, laid out a clean economic calendar for next week, and delivered one actionable level for today: Battle Plan 4 at 7510. Before you trade anything, know your number. NFP Friday — Know Your Number Before the Number Drops Non-Farm Payroll is also known as "not for professionals" — and that phrase exists for a reason.

MES MICROS BEST TRADE SETUPS Battle Plan Where To Go Long... Where To Go Short. TODAY'S REVIEW: ES FUTURES Battle Plan 3️⃣ | ES Short Setup Talk about a super clean entry with no heat.  🔥 Had you kept a runner to the next Strong Level that was a 27-point trade.  What do you do if you make 27 points the night before... the day before NFP? Green > Greed comes to mind!  ES Setups in RTH Today Be sure to watch the video to see how we traded on the day before non-farm payroll.  Above the Bull Bear Strong Level line, we were looking for longs to target two levels and to not short.  If we dropped back inside of the Bull Bear Strong Level level with a vengeance, we were looking to get short, hopefully arriving at Battle Plan 4️⃣ below.  Once again, you have to trade what is happening, not what you want to happen.  Tip of the Day Trade what is happening, not what you want to happen.  Scoreboard Points...

MES MICROS TRADE PLAN NFP Eve, Six-Point Stops, and Finding Your Piece of the System Posted: Wednesday June 04, 2026 ☀️ AM BRIEFING Today is the day before Non-Farm Payroll — a session that demands awareness, not aggression. This morning's AM Briefing delivered some of the most foundational ES futures trading education in recent memory: a deep dive into the six-point stop-loss standard, a visual stop-loss box tool you can put on your chart today, and a sharp recap of last night's Battle Plan 3 short that moved beautifully off a pre-mapped level. The big theme: your MES micro futures trade plan is a subset of the full system — find your piece of the pie, define it clearly, and trade that with discipline. If you took the overnight short and already closed it... you do not need to trade today. Today Is NFP Eve — Tag It and Track It Tomorrow is Non-Farm Payroll. That makes today a special session — not because of what will happen, but because of wha...

MES MICROS TRADE PLAN Trade Short in a Bull Market — The 50% Rule That Keeps Your Profits Posted: Wednesday June 3, 2026 ☀️ AM BRIEFING ES micro futures are in a pressure cooker... sitting in upper distribution all night, Dow and NQ hit all-time highs while ES technically had an inside day. The explosion is coming — we just don't know which way. Wednesday's session built on three consecutive short entries from the same level and delivered one of the clearest lessons in the S&P 500 futures playbook: when bulls control and you're trading counter-trend, the 50% capture rule is not a weakness — it's survival. This MES micro futures trade plan covers how to read whether a news-driven drop has real conviction, what the 15-Point Candle Rule tells you before you ever place a trade, and why staying committed to your decision is the hardest and most important discipline a futures trader can develop. Market Setup: Pressure Cooker at Upper Distribu...
