AM Briefing Video – Trade Better Together

Presented by MicrosTrader.com

Weekly Scripture

“Take delight in the Lord, and He will give you your heart’s desires.”

Psalm 37:4

We broke this verse down on Monday, so there’s no need to go over it again. However, the key takeaway is that God is not here to fulfill our plans—we are here to fulfill His. When you take delight in the Lord, you will be excited to fulfill His will for you.

Tip of the Day: Keep a Runner!

Keep a runner. Keep a runner. Keep a runner.

Yesterday, I had a beautiful trade—I’m not complaining—I captured 70 points on the move. But if I had kept just one little runner, I would have hit our 100-point target for the day. Once again, keep a runner in play and play perfect chess with your runner.

Today's Market Drivers

We will be live on YouTube about 15 minutes before the market opens.

Key economic report: JOLTS Job Report (30 minutes after the opening).

If you'd like to join us, I’ll include a link in the description and the first comment.

Chart Analysis & Trade Breakdown

Pre-Market Setup

Before the market opened yesterday, I outlined two trade opportunities:

  • A long entry at 09, finishing the initial gap against a strong level.
  • A breakout trade if the price popped above a key level.

Trade Execution

At the open, we saw price struggle to break below 2025 and last week’s low. I went long off my strong level, giving the bulls the benefit of the doubt. They responded exactly where they needed to, and the Trump tweet certainly helped.

As the move progressed, I alerted the group to a second setup. Price followed the plan exactly, bouncing off the expected level for another long entry. Instead of adding there, I waited until we cleared the next strong level before adding to my position.

At some point, I exited most of my contracts, leaving only one runner, but I should have kept it longer. This trade moved 70 points in my favor, but had I played it better, I could have captured the full 100 points.

Eventually, price hit our target perfectly before rolling over into a beautiful sell-off.

Looking Ahead: Today’s Market Outlook

  • Gap Down & Recovery: Yesterday, we saw a monster gap down, followed by a full recovery of over 100 points.
  • Current Market Position: Price is now setting up in the upper distribution.
  • Bearish or Bullish? I don’t see this as bearish at all.

We will update the charts live on YouTube 15 minutes before the market opens. We’ll map out our next trades and setups in real time.

Final Thoughts

If you can't join us live, I wish you good luck today. Stay safe and stay green, my friends!

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...
