ES Futures Trade Setups #323 | Five Great ES Trade Setups for Beginners
Battle Plan
Where To Go Long... Where To Go Short.
TODAY'S REVIEW: ES FUTURES
Good ES trade plan.
Entry was difficult… but the mapping on the money.
We were looking for shorts in the right place and longs in the right place.
Battle Plan 2️⃣ | ES Long Setup
Although entry was difficult with the large candles last night, we looked for the right trade and the right trade location.
That's half the battle when trading. Where should I go long and where should I go short!
That's the entire purpose of the Battle Plan: to keep us on the right side of price action.
🔥 A sixty to eighty pointer — had you gotten an entry and held a lotto runner.
Because of the monster candles and the news coming out of Iran at a feverish pace, I stood down.
Price hit the target overnight.
Oh well… There's another high probability trade around the corner.
Battle Plan 1️⃣ | ES Short Setup
As I said on Zoom this morning, I didn't think this was a fresh trade because we should have been long from last night's ladder up.
That siad... this is the area we looked for a ladder back short for those interested in shorts - I was not.
🔥 Had a quick fifteen pointer if you took it… As discussed on Zoom.
Live ES Trading via Zoom
While live on Zoom, we mapped out this long trade setup for ES traders.
In fact, it was the only trade we officially mapped out.
I outlined two targets. A fifteen-pointer and a fifty-pointer.
Only Target One hit.
🔥 Our system produced another fifteen-point trade.
You should always hold a runner "just in case"… but today there was no "just in case".
When Are the Strong Levels Updated?
I update the Strong Levels Indicator every Sunday.
On Sunday, my goal is to publish the Battle Plan, the Strong Levels Indicator, and the Battle Plan Indicator at the same time.
The version number of the Strong Levels Indicator is always the date of the most recent Sunday.
For example: Today is Monday, June the eighth, so the Strong Levels Indicator will say "MicrosTrader Strong Levels 6.7." Yesterday was June the seventh — that date appears in the title of the indicator.
Great Quote for Futures Traders
Never bet against a man who refuses to give up.
Tip of the Day
Our Core Strategy warns… When there are three or more fifteen-point candles early into the RTH session, the day is rarely worth trading. Price action is extremely dangerous.
I present Exhibit A… Monday, June the eighth, 2026.
Scoreboard
Points Accumulated This Week:
Battle Plan: 10+
🔥 Battle Plan 2️⃣ went ten points on the first reclaim.
If you were aggressive on the second reclaim, you could have had a 50 to 80 pointer. By this time I decided to stand down.
Zoom: 30
See the video above for the ES trade setups discussed.
And then in the power hour, I called this trade inside Discord.
"Watch for the loss and reclaim of this Strong Range"
We got exactly that for a pretty quick 10+ point run.
Of course, it's power hour with heightened trading risk. No one needs to trade power hour.
Core Strategy: 0
There were some absolutely beautiful front sides today, but with the 15-point candles, I have to say this was a no-trade day. So zero points are awarded.
