ES Futures Key Levels with Price Action Zones | Monday Battle Plan
Monday August 25, 2025
A Recap of Today's Price Action & Setups:
MORNING: ES tortured us to another "small range opening"... only 13 points the first 30 minutes. With near 95% laser-like accuracy, a small opening range is rarely worth trading.
My trading platform never opened this AM.
The Battle: YM pushed down, NQ pushed up. ES was stuck in-the-middle.
No trade. No Risk.
"There are easier days to trade."
EOD FLUSH: At 2:17 CST, I posted this message (see below). Once we broke the ONL, I "manned my battle station" and entered a limit order at 55... two points before the Strong Level. It popped nicely. See Video Above.
TRADE OF THE DAY
Trade of the Day... was no trade. The EOD Flush long was indeed risky but bounced perfectly. Holding my long through the close if we recapture the next strong level at 62.

STRONG LEVELS:
Version: 8.24 (Sunday's Date)
The Battle Plan for Tonight & Tomorrow:
NVDA on Wednesday.
On a 30M time frame, we are indeed still laddering down from Friday's high.
The 6455 Strong Level has a note attached "Warning Shot To Bulls". They responded once, can they HOLD??? We shall see.
TRADE IDEAS
(1️⃣) Since I am long from 6455 (as stated above), I would prefer this scenario the most - obviously. One could consider this as a small initial entry long too targeting 92,94,96.
(2️⃣) If we lose 6455, we could easily get a move to 6429. This does not mean you have to be short. But for those who love shorts, this might be a short idea you entertain.
(3️⃣) I like this trade idea a lot. This would take two daily lows and retrace the Powell candle. It also takes us to the expected range of the week on Monday/Tuesday.
(4️⃣) This would be quite a move. Getting scary down here, but it would NOT be surprising if we take last week's low here and ran up hard.
