Tue ES MES Micros Technical Analysis 02/11/2025

Preparing ES Emini & MES Micros Traders
For Our Emini and Micros Futures Trading Room



In today’s market briefing, traders are closely watching Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s speech, which is expected to bring volatility to an otherwise range-bound session. With risk management as the primary focus, traders are reminded that no single trade should significantly impact their capital, reinforcing the importance of proper leverage and trade sizing. Key technical levels indicate a potential downside move if the 67 level is breached, with a target around the 50% mark of the New Week Opening Gap. Meanwhile, anticipation for tomorrow’s CPI report suggests the market may remain in a holding pattern until a clearer economic picture emerges. RESOURCES:

Where Together We Trade Better

Good Morning, Traders!

Welcome to today’s AM Briefing!

This Week’s Scripture

"He said to them, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’" – Matthew 22:37

Absolutely beautiful—I love it!

Tip of the Day: No Single Trade Should Hurt You

A profitable or losing trade is random. You don’t know with 100% certainty if a trade will be a winner or a loser. However, if you have a high-probability system like we do, you can be confident in the long run.

But even with confidence, you should never risk more than you can afford to lose. If someone told me to bet my entire home on a single entry, the answer would be a hard no! A single trade should never have the power to financially hurt you.

So, how much leverage should you use?

  • Enough that you aren’t nervous about the trade.
  • If you feel uneasy, you might be overleveraging or prediction trading.
  • Risk management is key!

What can you control?

  • Where you place your order
  • How large your order is
  • How you manage the trade

Think about the following:

  • Where is your stop?
  • If price moves against you, do you adjust for a half-loss or break-even trade?
  • If price moves in your favor, will you take some profits or leave a runner?

No trade is guaranteed, but as a professional risk manager, you should know how to lose better than anyone else. This is what we drill into our heads every day in our trading group.

Today's News Drivers

📅 Tuesday, February 11

  • Fed Chair Jerome Powell speaks 30 minutes after market open
  • I have this marked as a green trading day, meaning we could see some increased volatility.

We'll navigate it as best as we can and see if it injects movement into the market.

Live Streaming Update

I will attempt to live stream today but will not be using my main iMac. Instead, I’ll stream from my M1 Mac laptop. I ran a test yesterday, and I think it will work.

If you’re interested in joining us, check us out on YouTube.

  • ✅ We do this every day!

Today's Schedule:

  • ⏰ 30 minutes before market open: Mental training session
  • ⏰ 9:20 AM ET: Live on YouTube – market updates and reminders

Yesterday’s Trade Review & Market Structure

  • Small Member Challenge: What was the trade of the day yesterday?
  • Hint: It was a front-side base trade.

If you're a member, post it on the trading floor!

I personally did not take a trade yesterday—I didn’t get my setup. The market hung, then shot up, then hung again—not my kind of day.

By the afternoon, I wasn’t even at my computer. I know how much mental capital I have for the week, and I chose to step away instead of forcing trades.

Key Trading Levels

  • 📍 Critical support: 67 level
  • If we break below it, we target lower prices.
  • 📍 New Week Opening Gap: 50% level at 13.50
  • If I go short, this will be my primary target.

If the price action builds downward momentum, we could fill older gaps and test the 2025 opening price.

Looking Ahead – CPI Tomorrow

  • I will only trade the morning session today
  • I expect low volatility in the afternoon
  • The market is likely waiting for tomorrow’s CPI report

This market is coiling for a massive move.

  • Will we break higher to new all-time highs?
  • Or will we reject lower and fill the open gap at 5909?

The 67 level is my key indicator—if we break below it, I'll be targeting levels further below.

Join Us Live on YouTube!

I’ll be live this morning—if my laptop holds up! If you’re interested in trading with us daily, check out 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...
