The stage is setThe stage is set in the S&P 500 for Friday's job report. On Thursday the S&P 500 overreacted to comments made by the Fed presidents. When you have this type of report on Friday, the market reaction on Friday is 50-50.02:14by DanGramza2
ES - 15 min chartI talk about pump and dumps all the time, you can see that they did a low volume premarket pump and dumped on volume today. It's too bad my 3 hr indicator didn't hit overbought on the pump, I was waiting for tomorrow to buy puts, lol. It's funny how I said yesterday that I had no clue what was gonna happen today. Well, today would've been really hard to predict, that was the largest midday swing in over a year.by hungry_hippo3

ES UpdateWow, RSI hit oversold already. I couldn;t figure out what was gonna happen yesterday, and there's really no way to have predicted this, lol. We could see a bounce, but I'm not playing it. Staying cash.by hungry_hippoUpdated 5
ES UpdateSorry, slept in and missed all the fun. Appears the algos are indeed doing the pump and dump regardless of intraday action. Why pump the market during the day when it's so much easier to do premarket on low volume? (Kinda reminds me of those meme stocks, lol) Not gonna short anything until it gets overbought on RSI which should happen tomorrow on Ponzi Friday. Just keep in mind that there isn't any rule that says it has to get overbought on RSI, so not going long. Basically I have no idea which way it gaps tomorrow, foreign markets didn't do much last night, this was mostly a premarket pump. I would assume pump and dump since it's Ponzi Friday tomorrow, but not confident enough to bet on it. by hungry_hippoUpdated 558
ES_F Updated chart for 04.01 - 04.05 Didn't post this weeks prep since last weeks was still in play but wanted to post an updated chart for a better visual of PA around the levels and structure we have been forming since last week. As mentioned we had this area under the Mean to fill out once we had the supply to do so, it took some time but we created the Supply for it and now are trading around these areas under the Mean filling it out. Some notes going into rest of the week : 5249.75 - 44.75 Key Support at VAL has been holding all night, no continuation towards the Edge unless we accept under and more selling comes in to push us that way. If selling is not strong we can stay balancing in this VAL area around 40 - 60s with 5264.75 - 60.75 being our Intrarange Resistance if we build up enough we could try to push over towards 5275.25 - 79.25 Level to fill some of that Gap we have created above but need to be careful as we still have T2 and Supply above that Mean area which tells us any pushes over 64.75 could be met with selling once buying runs out and price can keep coming back inside VAL. We are currently inside 5244.75 - 5295.50 Range with Supply above so if we do hold this range for now we can expect to trade around the lower parts of it while supply is coming out. As mentioned Size shorts will be covering down at VAL and under it which can hold us up until they are done and then we will see if there is still Supply to take us towards the lower Edge or selling runs out and we try to head back inside the Mean for Supply but this can take time to play out. Levels to Watch : Key Support 5249.75 - 44.75 Need acceptance under AND stronger volume to try and push to lower targets if no volume then can keep trading around it. Lower areas just in case are 5234.25 - 30.25 // 5219.75 - 15.75 Key Edge bottom and Supports 5207.50 // 5204.25 - 5199.75 Current Intrarange Resistance 5264.75 - 60.75 There is GAP above which means Supply, pushes over could be weak while still have selling but areas to watch above would be 5279.25 - 75.25 Key Resistance 5295.50 - 90.25by HollowMnUpdated 1

Trading Plan for Thursday, April 4th, 2024Trading Plan for Thursday, April 4th, 2024 Market Sentiment: Uncertain, as traders weigh consolidation signs against the underlying bullish trend. Weekly Volatility Risk: High (consolidation phase, earnings, Fed uncertainty) Key Supports Support Levels: 5266, 5257(major), 5246, 5241 (major), 5235 (major), 5231, 5222 (major), 5212 (major), 5208, 5203, 5196, 5192 (major), 5181 (major), 5171, 5163 (major), 5155, 5148, 5137 (major), 5126 (major), 5120, 5115, 5109 (major), 5105, 5092-95 (major) Key Resistances Resistance Levels: 5274, 5279 (major), 5285 (major), 5294, 5298-5302 (major), 5308, 5315 (major), 5322, 5329 (major), 5341, 5347, 5354 (major), 5363 (major), 5372, 5380 (major), 5392, 5400, 5408 (major), 5416, 5423-26 (major), 5435, 5447 (major) Trading Strategy Consolidation Zone: We're likely in a consolidation phase between 5241 and 5279. This requires flexibility and adaptability – overly aggressive trading will likely be punished. Supports: Look for potential long opportunities at 5257 (if today's high isn't broken), with stronger plays at 5246 or the 5241-35 zone. Be cautious with longs above these levels. Resistances: Shorting resistance areas carries risk in a bull market. Consider shorts near the 5298-5302 zone, primarily for scalps. Breakdown Watch: A decisive break below 5235 activates the bear case, triggering breakdown setups. Remember, breakdowns often trap traders – patience is key. Look for a failed breakdown (rejection and recovery), then consider shorts with level-to-level targets. Bull Case Holding Support: As long as 5241-35 holds, bulls maintain control. Consolidation between 5241-5279 likely, followed by a potential breakout above the 5298-5302 zone. This could lead to retesting 5315+. Expect Consolidation: We may not immediately reach new all-time highs. Be prepared for an extended consolidation period before the next push higher. Bear Case Key Breakdown Level: A strong break below 5235 signals a bear move. Look for failed breakdowns and bounces as shorting opportunities. Exercise caution due to the potential for traps.

Trading Plan for Wednesday, April 3rd, 2024Trading Plan for Wednesday, April 3rd, 2024 Market Sentiment: Cautious, price discovery after pullback in a strong uptrend. Weekly Volatility Risk: High (price discovery, earnings season, potential FOMC pivot implications) Supports to Watch: Immediate Supports: 5245-5242 (major), 5235, 5232 (major), 5219, 5210-12 (major), 5203 (major), 5190, 5183, 5175-77 (major), 5171, 5162, 5155 (major), 5147, 5142, 5134-36 (major), 5126 (major). Resistances to Monitor: Key Resistances: 5259, 5267-69 (major), 5274, 5282-84 (major), 5293, 5300(major), 5307 (major), 5311, 5315 (major), 5321, 5329-33 (major), 5342, 5345 (major), 5352, 5357 (major), 5364, 5370 (major), 5380-82 (major), 5389, 5400 (major) Trading Strategy: Support & Resistance: Focus on potential bounces at support levels, notably 5242-5245 (triangle backtest) and the major support zones. Look for short opportunities at resistance levels, especially 5267-69 and 5282-84. Knife Catch Mode: If sharp declines continue, be extremely cautious with longs, prioritizing major support levels only and following your rigorous knife-catching strategy. Long Opportunities: Exercise patience if considering longs. Bids at 5242-45, with more confidence after a failed breakdown and reclaim, are possible. Consider potential adds above 5255. Short Opportunities: Counter-trend shorting within the strong uptrend carries significant risk. Use extreme caution if considering shorts near major resistances. Watch for signs of a breakdown or retracement for better risk/reward entries. Target level-to-level profits. Focus on Reactions: Don't force trades, be patient, and react to price action. Bull Case Triangle Backtest Hold: A successful hold of the 5242-45 triangle backtest, particularly if 5255 can be reclaimed, would signal potential for a rebound. This could lead to retests of 5267, a basing period, followed by a test of 5282-84, and potentially a move back toward 5300-07. Bear Case Breakdown Signals: Breakdown below 5232 could trigger selling pressure. Watch for shorting opportunities on failed breakdowns or bounces. Exercise patience as these setups often involve traps. First significant short target is likely around 5219.

S&P 500 (ES) Day Trading Analysis With Volume Profile 📊On S&P 500 (ES) it's nice to see a strong sell-off from the price of 5287. It's also encouraging to observe a strong volume area where a lot of contracts are accumulated. I believe that sellers from this area will defend their short positions. When the price returns to this area, strong sellers will push the market down again. The downtrend combined with the strong volume area along with the strong S/R area from the past are my main reasons for this short trade. Happy trading, Daleby Trader_Dale115
#ES_F Day Trading Prep Week 03.24 - 03.29Last Week : Last week we opened below 5227 - 07.50 HTF Edge but weren't able to hold under it, we got some selling from Edge area back down towards VAH but not strong enough to get inside or break it, for any continuation under we needed to get through it which didn't happen. Once we got back over the Edge on Tuesday and this time held above, we were able to put together a cost basis there and once we took out VAL of New Range above VAH became our Target. We didn't hit it same day but got to it after hours which we know has less volume so its easier to move the market. We ended up tagging top of VAH but no strong buyers came in to take us over and that's when we started building the supply to back fill back towards the Mean to end the week with a break back under 5295.50 - 90.50. This Week : So far going into this week we know we have sellers over VAH and unless strong buyers come in, our current ones don't need to pay over Value. It's also Month end and this is a perfect spot for size longs to be taking profits and closing things up, BUT look at the small distribution ranges we had rest of the week which tells us we don't have size sellers to give us big moves from here so we will most likely need to wait for Supply to build up if we want to see continuation under 95.50 - 90.50. For now the Mean can act as support as shorts will be trying to cover at cheaper prices for the supply that falls under 5300. This might be a tricky week again and ranges could be small while we are building Supply, we can see some tighter range balances around this top of Mean/VAH area and need to be careful with longs because we do have sellers now and long trades might fizzle out quicker than everyone wants as shorts don't have to pay higher prices while we have longs unloading into the buying to close out the month. If we can't make a push or accept over VAH and build up enough supply we could see a move through the Mean towards VAL at some point, just have to be careful forcing it early as we may need more time to test around VAH before we have the supply to do that. IF we do run out of selling at VAH and accept over 5322.50 we could see a run at next Key Resistance area towards the Edge but for that we would need to build up under VAH and inside it as well. 5310 - 06 area can still be tested and maybe even over it at some point before we get a better failure to see a move to push us further trough the mean. Quicker trades without expecting too much follow through would be best bet until we see that we will be ready to move. Levels to watch : Supply is over 5310.50 - 06.50 Which makes it possible resistance or to look for look above and fail area. If we get through and don't fail we have 5324.75 - 20.75 as VAH top and 5341 - 36 as next Key Resistance. 5295.50 - 90.25 is current Key Area but we can't really say its our Support or Resistance just yet even though we closed at/under it on Friday, this area can act as smaller Mean, but once we have enough Supply over it and can get through we can watch lower targets for Continuation 5279.25 - 75.25 is first spot to hit and if enough supply VAL area at 5264.75 - 60.75 would be a good spot to visit as well. 5249.75 - 44.75 is Key Support for anything under VAL. It is a shorter Holiday week so we have to be careful and see if we get any moves out of this area at all or will we spend the whole week trading around Mean/VAH area if that will be the case 5310.50 - 06.50 // 5295.50 - 90.25 +/- is our current shelf and can see trading within/around until we will be ready to move. by HollowMnUpdated 3
