Morning Briefing Video Recap

Presented by MicrosTrader.com, where together we trade better.

Good Morning and Happy Friday – January 24th

This week’s verse:

1 Thessalonians 5:18

"Give thanks in everything, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."

Last week’s verse was Philippians 4:6, which also emphasized giving thanks in everything. This recurring theme is a reminder to stay humble and grounded, helping us keep pride and disappointment in check, as we acknowledge who ultimately controls everything.

Tip of the Day

There are easier days to trade, and not every day demands action. For example:

  • Yesterday’s price action wasn’t ideal for trading. The market lingered at levels for 12–15 minutes before moving, which is not conducive for some strategies.
  • If conditions aren’t favorable, it’s perfectly fine to step back.
  • Key Reminder: Don’t force trades. Wait for price action that aligns with your system.

Friday’s Trading Rules

  • Protect Your Week: If you had a bad week, avoid overtrading to recover losses today.
  • Green Trading Day: If you see favorable setups, proceed carefully.

Upcoming News Drivers

Next Week:

  • FOMC Meeting midweek (Wednesday).
  • PCE Report on Friday.

Stay mindful of these potential market movers.

Market Recap and Analysis

Yesterday’s Key Highlights

  • The market tested a high time-frame trendline, a critical level discussed all week.
  • Countertrades were discouraged as bulls dominated the market.
  • The level 4925 was pivotal:
    • It marked strong resistance, combining multiple significant levels (FOMC high, Asia session high).
    • The market moved decisively, taking out key highs without hesitation.

Today’s Key Level: 4925

  • Above 4925: Favor long trades.
  • Below 4925: Favor short trades targeting a return to the range.
  • Suggested targets below:
    • The halfback of the previous day.
    • RTH (Regular Trading Hours) lows.

This level remains a crucial indicator of market sentiment. Monitor it closely for potential rotations back into the range.

Closing Thoughts

Stay disciplined and strategic. Fridays are not the day to take unnecessary risks or give back profits. For more insights and to join our group, visit MicrosTrader.com.

ES Futures Trading Strategy

Image
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...
