Welcome ES MES Futures Traders

Good Morning & Today’s Verse

Happy CPI Day! Today is Wednesday, December 11. Let's reflect on today’s scripture:

"But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons."

Galatians 4:4-5

Continuing our theme about the birth of Christ this January, I have some exciting plans for next year that I’ll share as we approach year-end.

AM Briefing Overview

Welcome to the AM briefing by MicrosTrader.com, where we aim to trade better together. There’s another high-probability trade around the corner, but let’s focus on today’s key themes.

Tip of the Day: Rules Over Profit

In trading, rules must always reign over profit. Here are essential questions to consider:

  • What are your trading rules?
  • When should you trade, and when should you stop?
  • Are you adhering to your leverage metrics?

Leverage metrics training is available for free in the Foundations Course, even if you're not a member. Discipline and process must always triumph over profit, every day, forever.

News Drivers for the Day

Today’s primary driver is the CPI report. Here’s the outlook:

  • Today (CPI Day): Volatile and red-level trading conditions.
  • Tomorrow: Initially marked yellow but now shifted to red based on updated analysis.
  • Friday: The last significant trading day for most retail traders before the contract switch.

Trading Levels & Volatility

Expect high volatility today, with potential eight-point candles on a three-minute chart. This environment requires caution and might even call for a no-trade day for many traders.

If you decide to trade, my prediction for the day is one word: pain.

CPI Data Analysis

An analysis of the last 12 CPI days reveals the following:

  • Average CPI Day Range: 72 points.
  • Day After CPI Range: 62 points.
  • Highest Observed Range: 155 points (with a 100-point day after).

This data highlights the heightened volatility surrounding CPI releases. Today’s session is classified as Level 10 trading—proceed with extreme care.

Feedback Request

I need your help! Please provide feedback on the AM briefing by filling out a simple form (link in the description and comments). Let me know:

  • What do you like or dislike?
  • What should I keep or change?
  • Should I continue the Bible verse, tip of the day, and news drivers?

Your insights are invaluable as I aim to improve the AM briefing experience.

Trading Schedule for Today

We’ll be live 1 hour before the market opens to trade the CPI candle. Together, we’ll assess how to manage volatility and trade levels as they develop.

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...
