ES & MES FUTURES TRADE PLAN #403
TODAY'S REVIEW: ES FUTURES
What Happens on ES After a High Energy Day?
When we opened the live trading room this morning on Zoom and YouTube, the call was simple: today is a low probability trading day. You're already long or you're flat. Wait for something new.
Nothing new happened.
No trades were executed.
Jake said it best in his public trade journal… "It was great to see how patient we all were as we expected Slope and Chop."
Honestly, there's nothing to add.
Sometimes your best trade is no trade.
What Was the Key Level on ES Today?
The Bull Bear Line reigned supreme today.
Price tapped both sides of that line beautifully.
I always strive for laser accurate levels.
Congrats Justin
Justin took another nice payout from his funded accounts.
Congratulations, man.
It's been a journey.
Well earned.
Tip of the Day
First Touch Bounces:
The bounce play works on the FIRST touch of a level… price comes to the line and bounces.
We trade the bounce on the first touch.
By the third and fourth test the level is tired.
Wait to trade fresh levels!
In today's price action ... there were zero fresh levels!

Points Accumulated This Week:
Battle Plan: 70+
🔥 If you held your runner from yesterday's Battle Plan 2️⃣... you were long all day long.
Zoom: 60+
Stand Down was the order.
Unless you were aggressive and took the long off the opening... as we discussed... You stood down today.
Several aggressive traders took that long and did very well.
I recommended taking profit at the Strong Range… right against the high time frame trend line... and the red portion of the range... and calling it a day.
Nice call.
The key today was knowing exactly where you were on the chart. It's one of the things I tend to do best.
Core Strategy: 20+ (For Full Members)
No Level. No Trade.

COMMON QUESTIONS FOR ES FUTURES TRADERS
What Happens on ES After a High Energy Day?
A: You get a low probability trading day. That was the call in the live trading room this morning on Zoom and YouTube... you're already long or you're flat. Wait for something new. Nothing new happened. No trades were executed. Jake said it best in his public trade journal... "It was great to see how patient we all were as we expected Slope and Chop." Sometimes your best trade is no trade.
What Was the Key Level on ES Today?
A: The Bull Bear Line reigned supreme today. Price tapped both sides of that line beautifully. I always strive for laser accurate levels... and today that one line told you exactly where you were on the chart.
What is Stand Down?
A: Stand Down is the order to sit on your hands. No new trades. Today was a Stand Down day on Zoom. Unless you were aggressive and took the long off the opening... you stood down. Several aggressive traders took that long and did very well. I recommended taking profit at the Strong Range... right against the high time frame trend line and the red portion of the range... and calling it a day. The key was knowing exactly where you were on the chart.
What is a First Touch Bounce?
A: The bounce play works on the FIRST touch of a level... price comes to the line and bounces. We trade the bounce on the first touch. By the third and fourth test the level is tired. Wait to trade fresh levels! In today's price action... there were zero fresh levels.
What is a Strong Level?
A: A Strong Level is a key price level on the ES chart where price has a high probability of reacting. On the Battle Plan, one trade idea dips our toe into the next range. I want a snappy ladder-back reclaim of the Strong Level at the ideal entry location, as outlined... then we trade it.
What is the Core Strategy?
A: The Core Strategy is the Full Member approach built on one rule... No Level. No Trade. If price is not at a mapped level, you do nothing. It added 20+ points this week by staying disciplined.
What is the Speculator's Special?
A: The Speculator's Special is a high risk trade idea for a strong move outside the expected range. Tonight it's 7695 Long and 7641 Long... just in case we really get a strong down move. Place your stop a comfortable distance away from the entry. Be a professional risk manager here! Not financial advice. And remember the name... Speculator's Special.
