Welcome ES MES Futures Traders

Good Morning, Everyone!
Happy Friday, December 13th!

Bible Verse of the Day

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
– Isaiah 9:6

Absolutely beautiful! Let’s dive into today’s insights.

AM Briefing #323

Brought to you by MicrosTrader.com – "We're together; we trade better."
In our ES MES Futures Trading Room, we always emphasize patience because there's always another high-probability trade around the corner.

Tip of the Day

Sometimes, trading is about playing the bounces. We draw lines where the price tends to bounce and take advantage of those levels. Other times, it's like playing chess, where we anticipate whether the Bulls or Bears will dominate specific areas. Be confident in your trade locations, even if the price "wiggles" before moving in your favor.

News Drivers

  • Contract Rollovers: Expect to roll over contracts by Tuesday.
  • FOMC Next Week: A pivotal driver for market activity.
  • OPEX and End-of-Year Trading: Exercise caution as volatility increases.
  • Upcoming Key Events:
    • Monday: PMI Data
    • Tuesday: Retail Sales
    • Wednesday: FOMC
    • Thursday: Post-FOMC Action
    • Friday: Core PCE & Consumer Sentiment

Patience and well-planned entries will be crucial next week, as opportunities abound for disciplined traders.

Last Night’s Trade Review

Yesterday's highlights included:

  1. A short trade and a long trade at specific levels, guided by the Bull/Bear Line.
  2. A strong rejection at the 70 level due to a high-time-frame trendline.
  3. Overnight, I held a micro contract long, managed my stop effectively, and captured a solid move while practicing patience.

ES Chart - Where Are We Now?

- We bounced off the Bull/Bear Line, an essential indicator provided in our group.
- ES is behaving well within expected levels, making it easier to trade compared to the more erratic NQ.
- As a general rule, I rely on clean charts and focus on reading candle patterns to understand market behavior.

Bull/Bear Scorecard

Here’s how the Bulls and Bears stack up for today:

  • Trendline: Bulls
  • VWAP: Bulls
  • Overnight Halfback: Bulls
  • Yesterday’s Range: Bulls
  • Session Stacking: Neutral (choppy zone)

The Bulls dominate, with nearly all categories in their favor.

Closing Thoughts

Good luck trading today! Stay patient and focused. We’ll see our traders live on Zoom 30 minutes before the market opens for our mental training session.

ES Futures Trading Strategy

Youtube Channel I: Youtube Channel II:  Welcome to Micros Trader.  As a trading group we analyze ES price action live via zoom each morning, from Market Open Til New York Lunch, looking for the same… predictable… 3-5 trade set ups. We typically get 30-45 set ups a week with a 90%+ win rate - your mileage may vary significantly and in no way is this a promise - it is past results we have experienced personally.  We draw horizontal bounce lines. We play the bounces off those lines, looking for multiple confluences that gives the levels extra bounce power. Before entering a trade we analyze the price action, and lett trend dictate our leverage. We tend to favor trades with the trend but we do extremely well in chop too - with much lower leverage of course.  Our core trading strategy for scalping S&P Futures…. is a blend of techniques taught by Cotton Candy TA, ICT, and Market Profile Auction Principles. These principles coupled with years of reading ES price acti...
