TODAY'S REVIEW: ES FUTURES

Battle Plan 2️⃣ | ES Long

πŸ”₯ 90+ Points.

On Zoom and YouTube, I drew the following GREEN BOX and declared I would not trade unless we dropped into the box. 

As you know, we finally did. 

Multiple traders did very well on this trade!

We dropped right down into the green box and bounced right off the bottom of the Strong Level.

TRADER HOMEWORK

The low today, where did we stop? 

What price level did we bounce off of? 

If I remember, I will work the answer into the AM Briefing tomorrow. 

Tip of the Day

This morning, the Tip of the Day was: if you don't like where price is, just wait until ES goes to a new section on the chart... We displayed that this morning live on Zoom and YouTube, as noted above.

COMMON QUESTIONS FOR ES FUTURES TRADERS

What is the Battle Plan?

A: The Battle Plan is the daily map of the best ES and MES trade setups... where to go long, where to go short. It marks key price levels and zones on the chart before the session opens. Today the Battle Plan banked 170 points on the week, including a 90+ point long off the green box. Treat every level as a place price may react, then wait for your own confirmation before you pull the trigger.

What is a Strong Level?

A: A Strong Level is a price area where the chart has shown it cares... a spot price tends to defend, reject, or bounce off of. Today we dropped into the green box and bounced right off the bottom of the Strong Level. When price reclaims a Strong Level, that is your cue to look for an add-on to a winning trade. Below a Strong Level, your eyes shift down to the next Strong Range below.

What is the Bull Bear Strong Level?

A: The Bull Bear Strong Level is the line that separates bull control from bear control on the chart. When price holds above it, bulls are driving. When price stays below and won't even challenge it, that tells you something. We didn't even challenge the Bull Bear Strong Level line today... and that is not looking good for the bulls here.

What is the Core Strategy?

A: The Core Strategy is a repeatable trading method we track separately from the Battle Plan setups. It has its own rules for when to engage and when to sit on your hands. Big candles can mean a no trade day... we passed on the 15-point candles. But when the setup is clean it pays, like the Core Strategy short that went fifty points.

What does it mean to trap the trader long?

A: Trapping the trader long is a setup where you look to get long off a defended low and catch the traders who bet wrong. You want to see a quick snap down, then a snappy ladder back to the north. The question is simple... can the bulls defend again at this location? If they do, look to add to your winning trade on Strong Level reclaims.
