Sunday Chart Prep: The Weekly Strong Levels Routine for Futures Traders

The weekend routine that turns a messy chart into a clean set of Strong Levels… before the week ever opens.

From the free MicrosTrader Trading Library… 140 lessons mined from 1,042 live ES and MES futures sessions taught since 2018.

Sunday chart prep is the weekend routine every serious futures day trader needs. You tune up every timeframe, carry forward the levels that still matter, delete the stale lines, then review with fresh eyes and publish the Strong Levels that anchor the coming week. It is the quiet work that makes Monday morning easy.

This page gathers everything George teaches about weekend chart preparation across hundreds of hours of live ES E-mini futures and MES micro futures sessions… the tune-up, the carry-forward, the fresh-eyes review, and how Sunday's Strong Levels feed straight into the week's Battle Plan.

“"These are levels I publish on Sunday night for my traders for the week. These are the levels I think are most important, along with some notes."”

From George’s published record: ES & MES Futures Trade Plan #336 — a 50+-point move, mapped in advance.

The Sunday Strong Levels

Start with the output. Every Sunday, George publishes a short list of the price levels he believes matter most for the week ahead, each one with a note attached. These are the Strong Levels, the lines his members see on their charts before the market opens.

Strong Levels are not a mystery. They are high time frame levels stitched together with the fine-detail levels that shape price action. George curates the set and refreshes it weekly so his traders never work off a stale chart.

“"Every Sunday I publish these strong levels. These are the lines you see here that's included in your membership."”

ES & MES Levels and Setups and Plans for Today’s Trading Session

ES EMINI SETUPS AND KEY LEVELS Monday November 3, 2025 Micros Trader’s latest AM Briefing highlighted a structured trading philosophy anchored in preparation, disciplined execution, and self-reflection. A long setup from the pre-released Battle Plan played out during the overnight session, with partial profits captured following a narrowly missed 10-point target. Despite recent index gains, the trading bias remains focused on technical levels and price structure, with the half back zone offering the most favorable area for new entries. Uncertainty around the upcoming Non-Farm Payrolls release and broader macro trends such as bullish seasonality were acknowledged, though the tactical approach remains grounded in intraday market behavior. ☀️ AM BRIEFING Opening Remarks Micros Trader opened the AM Briefing with a restatement of the foundational trading approach followed within the community. The core philosophy is simple yet deeply effective: "If you map...

Micros Trader advised against short positions and emphasized the importance of retaining a “runner” contract to capitalize on potential large-scale moves. Psychological discipline and patience were framed as more critical to long-term success than technical expertise, with emotional lapses identified as the primary cause of trading failure. The session also outlined upcoming economic data that may contribute to heightened market volatility throughout the week. ☀️ AM BRIEFING Opening Remarks Micros Trader begins the AM Briefing by highlighting the dominant bullish momentum in the ES Emini futures market for Monday, September 29th.

Tuesday Jul 8: Live ES & MES Trade Prep for Our S&P Futures Trading Room

Tuesday July 8, 2025 In Monday’s AM briefing from MicroTrader.com, traders were encouraged to stay cautious amid a light news day dominated by tariff concerns. The prior session delivered a rare double distribution trend day down, with a mapped-out 15-point short ultimately playing out after a 20-hour delay. Emphasis was placed on proper ladder counting and magnet levels, with one trader's execution used as a successful example of strategy and runner management. Despite the red day, a 50% retracement and market behavior signaled underlying bullish control going into the current session. 📚 RESOURCES ▶️ Free "Futures Foundations Course" ▶️ Become A Member: ES MES Futures Trading Room ▶️ YouTube Community Updates 📄 TRANSCRIPT Opening Remarks Welcome to the AM briefing video presented by microtrader.com, where together we trade better.
