Welcome ES MES Futures Traders!

AM Briefing Video

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

Good morning and welcome to the AM briefing on FOMC day! Last night, I was thinking about what acronym we could use for "FOMC." How about "Find Out MicroChumps"? We will see what today brings!

📖 Philippians 2:3

"Do nothing out of rivalry or conceit, but in humility consider others as more important than yourselves."

🔹 BIG Tip of The Day

Do your end-of-the-day chart every day.

Why? Because it builds confidence in the system. Our group isn’t about my trading or my results. I’m just the captain of the ship, and that ship is our core strategy.

  • It builds consistency in your routine.
  • It builds consistency in your discipline.
  • It strengthens your professional preparation as a trader.

I do my pre-flight before the market opens, and I do my debrief when it's over. That includes taking a screenshot of my end-of-the-day chart and adding it to my trade journal.

Stay on Track!

When a trader goes off the rails, the first question I ask is:

"Have you been doing your end-of-the-day charts?"

100% of the time, the answer is NO.

Tracking your core strategy trades versus other trades helps you identify patterns in your results.

🔹 Yesterday’s Review

Yesterday, we had 10 winners and 1 loser. The loss wasn’t a core strategy trade—I took a trade, was confident in my decision, and accepted the outcome.

  • It was the day before FOMC.
  • Contract rollover was happening.
  • We were trading inside a complex range.

📉 Lesson Learned: If you took core strategy trades, you did great! If you didn’t, well… I took the afternoon off and spent time with my wife instead!

🔹 ES Chart – Where Are We At?

Looking at the 10-minute chart:

  • Still in a multi-week chop range.
  • Upper distribution of the range.
  • If we break higher, expect a reaction at the trendline.
  • If we push lower, look for support at the bottom of the range.

We will trade the levels as they develop.

🔹 Indices Overview

  • Most indices are at halfback.
  • No major breakouts yet.
  • We will trade the levels as they develop.

🔹 Predictions

👉 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...
