MES MICROS BEST TRADE SETUPS

Battle Plan

Where To Go Long... Where To Go Short.



TODAY'S REVIEW: ES FUTURES

Battle Plan 1️⃣ | ES Long

80+ Points.

Although entry was nearly impossible, we were looking for the right trade and the right trade location… That's the entire purpose of the Battle Plan.

If we can keep looking for the right trades in the right trade locations, we will do just fine.

Just before Asia, price dropped beautifully into the drop zone, but unfortunately it was the Asia Open, which is never advisable to trade.

Yesterday I wrote, "Tomorrow is Monday, and it's the Monday after a long holiday… Often a squirrelly day."

Yes, yes it was!

Tip of the Day

The first trading day after a long holiday weekend is rarely a great one. Today proved it again.

Scoreboard

Points Accumulated This Week:

Battle Plan: 0

🔥 Battle Plan 1️⃣ was the right trade in the right trade location, but no entry was provided per the mapping. That Asia opening can just rip through levels like it's not even there. Best to be safe than sorry. 

Zoom: 10

🔥  We mapped out one official trade on the live zoom session, and you had to be in early, but price ran a quick 10 to 15 points. We dropped into the drop zone and had a very nice initial move, with multiple traders doing very well on that initial move.

Core Strategy: 20

🔥 One front side short and a fair value gap for 20 plus points. 
🔥 One front side long for 10 points.
