MES MICROS TRADE PLAN Small Range Alert, the Knife Catching Warning, and Why Trade Location Always Wins Posted: Tuesday June 02, 2026 ☀️ AM BRIEFING Tuesday's ES futures morning briefing opened with a full review of Monday's high-energy session — a London short, a Battle Plan long that paid 40-plus points on Trump/Iran news, and an overnight positional short George was still holding heading into the RTH open. The morning's biggest lesson wasn't which trade to take — it was knowing when to stand back. A Small Range Alert fired early in the RTH session, a signal that historically means 95-plus percent of the time the rest of the day isn't worth trading. George also issued his most urgent warning of the week: if ES starts printing 15-plus-point candles to the south, step back, hold your hands, and let price settle. No hero trades. No knife catching. Every MES micro futures trader needs to be mentally prepared before that day arrives — because...

MES MICROS BEST TRADE SETUPS Battle Plan Where To Go Long... Where To Go Short. TODAY'S REVIEW: ES FUTURES Character of Overnight ES Price Action As discussed in the AM Briefing , the character was a little "wicked." The overnight price action had tons of wicks out of nowhere. The overnight price was not orderly or predictable. Then you had news from Iran at a Fast and Furious pace. Dangerous trading conditions to say the least. Coupled with a large 15-point candle down to the Strong Level, it made me yell "Caution, caution, caution." There is easier price action to trade… in my humble opinion. Battle Plan 1️⃣ | Best ES Trade Setup Not the "easiest" of entries… Considering the quality of the overnight action, the Strong Level already had one beautiful bounce… at the opening. That said… at least we were looking for the right trade in the right trade location - the entire purpose of the Battle Plan. If you wer...

MES MICROS TRADE PLAN The Risk of a Liquidation Break Is High — And Your Trade Plan Has the Answer Posted: Monday June 1, 2026 ☀️ AM BRIEFING Monday's AM Briefing came down to one theme: know when to step back. With new all-time highs stacking up and a chaotic overnight session full of wicks and near-15-point candles, George flagged the risk of a liquidation break as very high heading into a news-heavy week. Non-Farm Payroll hits Friday and JOLTS is tomorrow — your ES futures daily trade setups this week need to account for that. The best MES micro futures trade plan entries are sitting below current price, and getting greedy for lower is the right call. Trading Psychology: Suffer Until You Change George opened with a tip from Jesuit priest Anthony De Mello — and it hit hard. "If you're suffering and not willing to do anything about it, you need to suffer more. Suffer until you get sick of it." That's not cruelty. That's how m...

MES MICROS BEST TRADE SETUPS Battle Plan Where To Go Long... Where To Go Short. TODAY'S REVIEW: ES FUTURES Best ES Trade Setup of the Week This Battle Plan trade setup was just spectacular last week. Unfortunately, it happened around midnight in my time zone.  If you're an international member or burning the midnight oil... this was your trade.  Every week we tend to get a Battle Plan trade that goes a hundred plus points. This one was close.  Of course, not every account type can hold overnight, but for those accounts who can, this was a fantastic trade.  Expected Range 90 points seems a little light for non-farm payroll.  Although a 90-point pullback puts me exactly where I am most interested in getting long.  And the sooner we get there, the more excited I will be.  📊 ES Expected Range Options-implied weekly move — SPX ATM straddle applied to ES futures Range Low 7,505.66 ← ES Price 7,595.75...
