TODAY’S REVIEW: ES FUTURES

Monday’s 100+ Point Runner | ES Long Setup

Just a quick note on this trade… you would still be long holding a lotto runner playing perfect chess for a multi-day hold.

Today’s price action did not take out the previous day’s low. 

Move your stop up under today’s low. 

We will discuss this in the AM Briefing.  

Battle Plan 2️⃣ – ES Short Setup

There isn’t much to add to what I discussed in the AM Briefing and the live trading this morning, and the recap video above. 

Bulls just simply defended way too hard! 

Any trades for Battle Plan 2️⃣ had to be quick… see money, take money. 

I only made 12 points, but I’m not crying.

50-Point ES Long Setup

We called out this long with the “Take Profit” outlined… See the video above 

A big shout out to Laxmi, who held on to his runner today and captured 50 points on this exact trade! I know James Paul crushed it too. Congrats traders. 

Together We Trade Better!

Battle Plan 1️⃣ – ES Short Setup

Well, we finally made it up to Battle Plan 1️⃣.

In the chart below I outlined a few places one could have initiated a short.

The Speculator Special had a short off of 76. Even a small stop of four points would have kept you short this entire trade.

Hold That Runner!

 I guess I need to make that the tip of the day again.

Tip of the Day

This bears repeating… Hold that runner.

Holding a lotto runner is often the best trade you can take.

And whenever price shows the power of a runner, I must highlight it.

COMMON QUESTIONS FOR ES FUTURES TRADERS

What is a Strong Level?

A: A Strong Level is a price zone where buyers and sellers have fought hard before. Price tends to react there… it bounces, stalls, or reverses. In this Battle Plan the 7513 Strong Level stood out as the better spot for a short. Mark these levels ahead of time and let price come to you.

What is the Bull Bear Strong Level?

A: The Bull Bear Strong Level is the line that separates bullish control from bearish control. Trade above it and the Bulls are driving. Slip below it and the Bears get their shot. When price sits under that line, be careful discounting Battle Plan longs that look far away… they can fill in a flash. I want to see a reclaim of that Strong Range before I trust the upside.

What is the Core Strategy?

A: The Core Strategy is one of our tracked trading approaches, built around clean setups like Break Level and Backside shorts. It runs alongside the Battle Plan and the Zoom trades on the weekly Scoreboard. This week it stacked 95+ points… a Break Level short for 20+ and a Backside short for 15+.

What does it mean to hold a runner?

A: A runner is the last piece of your position you let ride after taking profit on the rest. Holding a lotto runner is often the best trade you can take. You risk very little and give a big move room to develop. From Monday’s long you would still be holding one, playing perfect chess for a multi-day hold. Hold that runner.

What is the Speculator Special?

A: The Speculator Special is a higher-risk setup for traders who want to be aggressive. Today it had a short off of 76… and even a small four-point stop would have kept you in the entire move. It banked 50+ points on the Scoreboard. Trade it small and know the risk going in.
