Futures Rollover Dates 2026: Contract Rollover, OPEX Fridays & Holiday Weeks

Image
Battle Plan · SITREP Report · Free Course · Trading Library Become A Member Contract rollover, OPEX Fridays, triple witching, thin holiday weeks, and weak Mondays… the days that trade nothing like the others. From the free MicrosTrader Trading Library … 140 lessons mined from 1,042 live ES and MES futures sessions taught since 2018. The calendar moves markets. Certain days trade nothing like a normal session. Contract rollover weeks turn squirrelly. OPEX and triple witching Fridays whipsaw. Holiday weeks go thin and untradeable. Mondays start slow. A futures day trader who reads the calendar knows when to press and when to Stand Down, long before the ES E-mini futures even open. This page gathers everything George teaches about the trading calendar across years of live ES and MES micro futures sessions… why rollover gets weird, how to survive OPEX and triple witching, when a holiday week is worth skipping, and how volatility itself shifts with the political regime. “...

Stealing Bounce Power: Why Repeated Tests Break Support and Resistance

Image
Battle Plan · SITREP Report · Free Course · Trading Library Become A Member Every support and resistance level holds a finite number of bounces… beat it up enough and the ground gives way. From the free MicrosTrader Trading Library … 140 lessons mined from 1,042 live ES and MES futures sessions taught since 2018. Bounce Power is the finite energy stored in a support or resistance level. Every time price tests a level and reacts, it spends a little of that stored power. Beat the level up enough times and it eventually breaks. That's why a fresh, untested level bounces hard and a level that has been hammered all day and all night finally gives out. This page collects everything George teaches about Bounce Power across hundreds of hours of live ES E-mini futures and MES micro futures trading… why the first reaction off a level is the strongest, how repeated tests soften the ground, why volume marks the traders defending price, and the honest limit of it all. No level is a ...
