MES MICROS and ES EMINI Best Setups
A Recap of Today's Price Action & Setups:
Overall:
I am absolutely in love with the new Battle Plan indicator... I love how it scales across timeframes, how it moves with price. I'm just so thankful that this was finally created.
One of our traders remarked today, "I don't know about anyone else, but the BP indicator really helped me keep things in perspective today."
As I wrote last night, "Well, we finished at the top of the weekly range, near the top of the 135-point move. Every entry idea near the high here is low probability."
Therefore, the first battle plan I outlined was Battle Plan (2️⃣), which was nearly 60 points away.
Battle Plan (3️⃣) was 110 points away.
Battle Plan (2️⃣):
🔥 Battle Plan (2️⃣) for a 40-60 point run.
A great entry for international members or night owls!
Clear Range Rejection:
ES gave a clear rejection of the range as discussed several times over the past multiple weeks and in the video above.
This called for a bigger pullback, IMHO.
Our eyes were on Battle Plan (3️⃣) below as Battle Plan (2️⃣) already bounced 60 points.
We waited.
And waited.
My DOM was closed.
Battle Plan (3️⃣)???
We waited even longer.
Then, the price simply died.
During NY Lunch, things got interesting again. I launched my DOM and waited like a sniper.
We started towards Battle Plan (3️⃣)... but... a beautiful Core Strategy long stood in the way (as noted in Discord)... it bounced 30-plus points for a beautiful trade. It doesn't get prettier than that!
Although I wanted Battle Plan (3️⃣) to happen. You must trade what is happening, not what you want to happen. Thus, the Tip of the Day below.
Caught a nice long off the 100-Day VAL Strong Level. Trailed at 50% of the profit. No emotions. Clean entry. Initial stop just 2 points behind the Strong Level. On Zoom, we discussed the power of this level... and what it would mean if we reclaimed it later in the day.
I front-ran the 100-Day VAL Strong Level by 1 point... hopefully ensuring entry. A beautiful touch-n-go entry it was and off to the races!
I captured 50% of the move. Back to the drawing board.
TIP OF THE DAY
Oldie but a goodie... Trade what's happening. Not what you want... or predict... to happen.
TRADE OF THE DAY
BATTLE PLAN:
🔥 Battle Plan (2️⃣) for a 40-60 point run. On Zoom I proposed you move to stop just under the Strong Range to capture a 40-pointer at minimum. Great trade for those who took it.
ZOOM:
We kept traders safe today along with very profitable discussions about the 2026 RTH OPEN 6902 opening price, Strong Level entries/exits, risk management, and such.
We stayed on Zoom longer... waiting for the possibility of Battle Plan (3️⃣).
We were looking for a confluence between ES Battle Plan (3️⃣) and NQ grabbing the previous day's RTH low. Unfortunately, NQ grabbed the low before ES got all the way down to Battle Plan (3️⃣).
Most profitable trading is in the waiting, not clicking buttons.
CORE STRATEGY:
20-point candles rendered core strategy a no-trade morning.
Then the candles slowed WAY down to a 5.4 ATR on a 3M Chart
Before exiting Zoom, I drew out two basic Core Strategy Levels.
You could have traded one or the other for a beautiful 32-point long as we discussed in Discord. When we are in rational price action, ES performs like a pinball machine, bouncing between levels to near perfection.
Had you taken the entry with three contracts, your first take profit would have been at the Strong Level, 20 points away, and then you would have kept a single contract back as a paid-for lotto runner, just in case price continued its journey.
