ES - Run On BuystopsCapitulation begun from last Thursday and if you was short throughout the beginning of this week, you would be sure to have booked a healthy piece of that explosive movement. Not one day passed where ES printed bullish on the daily timeframe after last Thursday’s high @ 5257.50. Fridays bearish sell off was met by bullish resistance at the Jan 31 2024 daily bullish order block which shows that there’s signs that a retracement is in the cards. With very little sellside imbalance buyside inefficiencies, that leaves ES with a potential bullish run upto 5120, over 100 handles if we was to reach the nearest imbalance in price action. With the dollar selling off and YM shifting in market structure after sellstops was taken, this intermarket relationship would aid my bullish bias. However, I am awaiting accumulation coupled with manipulation before the big news announcements on Tuesday. So Monday, I’d like to see a continued short term sell off before running intraday buystops, creating a bullish breaker. My philosophy is simple... Fortify Michael J Huddlestone's concepts that I have studied to consistently predict where the market is more likely to go. This includes; - Market Structure - Buyside/Sellside Liquidity - Order Blocks - Liquidity Voids - Fair Value Gaps - Optimal Trade Entry - Premium/Discount Array - SIBI/BISI - Many More! The strategies mentioned here are some of many that I use to implement into my analysis and over time, with consistency I aim to achieve a high degree of accuracy in the markets with the foresight and understanding to assess what went wrong when my bias is negated.

ES1! evening updateWorking primary count has impulse wave from ATH at 5333.50 to 4963.50. Area in orange ellipse is suspect, so if this count doesn't play out, will likely need to go back and tease out this price action. Corrective bounce off low of 4963.50 appears to be an ABC zigzag. Looking for another impulse wave to complete a C wave or a 3 wave.by discobiscuit0
ES UpdateI said yesterday that it would get overbought today and go down. Well, here we are. Made a little money with puts like I said I would. Indicators now neutral, META earnings probably dictates gap direction tomorrow. Just gonna stay cash and take potshots at the market with options. I'm guessing MFI will cycle fast like it did a a couple of weeks ago, just waiting for the next opportunityby hungry_hippoUpdated 229

Trading Plan for Wednesday, April 24th, 2024Trading Plan for Wednesday, April 24th, 2024 Market Sentiment: Uncertain, with bulls maintaining control after yesterday's rally but price action becoming more complex after a trend day. Key Supports Immediate Supports: 5095-5100 (major), 5082, 5076 (major), 5067 Major Supports: 5056 (major), 5047-45 (major), 5027 (major), 4996-5000, 4966 (major), 4945-49 (major) Key Resistances Near-term Resistance: 5120 (major), 5136 (major), 5171 (major), 5190 (major) Major Resistances: 5220 (major), 5246 (major) Trading Strategy Post-Trend Caution: After a significant move yesterday, be aware of complex price action and increased potential for traps. Prioritize caution over conviction. Long Opportunities: Due to the choppy nature of post-trend days, direct bids are less reliable. Consider bids with a failed breakdown at 5090 (after it's reclaimed) or on major supports (5056, 5046-45). Prioritize the knife-catch protocol for deeper longs. Short Opportunities: Look for backtests of 5136 and particularly 5171 for shorting. A breakdown below 5076 could open up downside targets, with level-to-level profit-taking. Risk Management: Scale back position sizing and be prepared to potentially take some losses while price discovery takes place. Bull Case Holding Support: Defending the 5045 zone is encouraging for bulls. Reclaiming Resistances: Bulls need to push above the 5120/5136 zone for a potential run to the next major target, 5171. Adding on Strength: Breaks and acceptance above 5095, within a bull flag pattern, could offer opportunities for adding to long positions. Observe closely to ensure it's not a backtest for a downside rejection. Bear Case Breakdown Signals: A convincing break below 5045 triggers the downside move, while a short-term failure of 5076 could lead to a dip. As always, be wary of traps – look for a bounce/failed breakdown first, then consider shorting with level-to-level profit-taking.

S&P 4600? HEAD AND SHOULDERS FORMINGThe **S&P 500** index has recently confirmed a **head and shoulders** topping pattern, which suggests an **exhaustion of buyers**. Let's break down this pattern: 1. **Head and Shoulders Pattern**: - The head and shoulders pattern is a classic price pattern that indicates a potential reversal. - It typically consists of three phases: **setup**, **trigger**, and **confirmation**. - In the case of the S&P 500, we've observed this pattern recently, signaling a bearish tone - The pattern involves a failed attempt to make a new high, indicating buyer exhaustion or sellers unloading shares. - Novice analysts sometimes label this pattern prematurely, so it's essential to wait for all three phases to minimize false signals. 2. **Minimum Downside Objective**: - The head and shoulders pattern suggests a minimum downside objective for the S&P 500 around **4600*¹ - This means that the index could potentially decline to this level based on the pattern's formation. 3. **Seasonal Correction in May**: - Historically, there has been a **seasonal weakness** in the stock market around May. - The phrase "Sell in May and Go Away" originated from a long-term seasonal study, indicating that most stock market gains tend to occur during the autumn months. - While April has historically been positive for the S&P 500, investors should be aware of potential corrections in May⁶⁷. Remember that market patterns and seasonality provide insights, but they don't guarantee future outcomes. Always consider other factors and consult professional advice before making investment decisions. Shortby jgavrity0
Volatility Valuation Index - ES FuturesThe " Volatility Valuation Index " proved to be quite reliable ... again.... Mind you this is a SETUP tool, to locate EXTREMES in Volatility. It is NOT a SIGNAL tool, to be used for entries / timing. That said, its accuracy sometime can be impressive. But even under these circumstances, I do not use it as a timing tool (Works across all markets & timeframes) Longby AlexSpiroglou1

Trading Plan for Tuesday, April 23rd, 2024Trading Plan for Tuesday, April 23rd, 2024 Market Sentiment: Uncertain, with bulls and bears battling at key resistance after yesterday's recovery day. Key Supports Immediate Supports: 5040 (major), 5032, 5020 (major) Major Supports: 4996 (major), 4959 (major), 4938 (major), 4903 (major) Key Resistances Near-term Resistance: 5057 (major), 5081 (major), 5102 (major), 5115 (major) Major Resistances: 5129 (major), 5141 (major), 5167 (major), 5186-90 (major) Trading Strategy The 5040 Battleground Continues to be critical. Observe for breakouts or breakdowns with close attention. Long Opportunities: Due to the choppy nature of the 5040 zone, direct bids are less reliable. Consider bids with a failed breakdown at 5032 or on major supports (4959, 4938). Prioritize the knife-catch protocol for deeper longs. Short Opportunities: Look for backtests of 5081 and particularly 5102 for shorting. A breakdown below 5020 could open up downside targets. Profit-Taking: On shorts, consider taking profits entirely at major levels, especially given ES's tendency to short squeeze. Bull Case Holding Support: Defending the 5040 zone is encouraging for bulls. Re-tests and quick recoveries signal buying strength. Reclaiming Resistances: Bulls need to push above the 5081/5102 zone for a sustained recovery attempt. Adding on Strength: Breaks and acceptance above 5057 could offer opportunities for adding to long positions. Observe closely to ensure it's not a backtest for a downside rejection. Bear Case Breakdown Signals: A convincing break below 5020 triggers the downside move, likely targeting 4975 or lower. As always, be wary of traps – look for a bounce/failed breakdown first, then consider shorting with level-to-level profit-taking.

ESM2024 (S&P500) neutral atm, no further shorts allowed for nowWe are neutral on S&P futures after the recent drop. It is too early in the week to determine a high probability bias. We have taken out fridays high today (5058), and we might see further retracment to the upside. We are not considering a short bias on the daily chart, unless ESM2024 daily candle body closes below 4984. Until we get more insight troughout the week, we will stick to intraday scalping only. There is potential buyside liquidity remaining at 5095 and sellside liquidity at 5006. We will see if tomorrow gives us a setup to engage either one. As of now, I think 5006 sellside is the more likely one. This is no financial advise! Do not risk real money on any idea published by us. by MintMarkets_Fx333
Bouhmidi-Bands and Overnight Session - Name of the Game The overnight range was the name of the game today. As mentioned earlier, we were looking for a potential break in either direction. After establishing the initial balance, we saw a test of the overnight session low (5019), which was successfully defended. Subsequently, buyers entered the market, leading to a push higher in $ES. This move broke the high of the overnight session (5036), confirming bullish momentum and surpassing the previous day high (5058) & upper #BouhmidiBand, reaching a peak at 1.3s BB (5074). In the last 1.5 hours, NYSE:ES retraced back within the Bouhmidi-Bands. Longby Sisa87224

ES UpdateMFI went oversold last night, but there's also an open futures gap. Don't have time to watch the market today so I took the easy money and cashed out. I think it'll double bottom before going up because of the open gap. Guessing TSLA tanks on earnings. Gold down big caused Brazil (EWZ) to go red. Barely made any money on those calls. by hungry_hippo5

Trading Plan for Monday, April 22nd, 2024Trading Plan for Monday, April 22nd, 2024 Market Sentiment: Uncertain, with bulls and bears at a crossroads. Geopolitical risks remain a factor, and market reaction to earnings reports and economic data will be crucial. Key Supports Immediate Supports: 4996-5000 (major), 4990, 4975 (major), 4966 Major Supports: 4958 (major), 4937 (major), 4904-08 (major), 4878 (major) Key Resistances Near-term Resistance: 5013, 5027 (major), 5039, 5045 (major) Major Resistances: 5081 (major), 5108 (major), 5125-30 (major), 5146-50 (major), 5190 (major) Trading Strategy Geopolitical Awareness: Remain vigilant about weekend news developments and potential market impact. Long Opportunities: Due to potential volatility, exercise caution with long positions. Prioritize bids at 4975 (a reaction may signal buying strength) or on failed breakdowns of overnight lows at 4963. For deeper longs, focus on major supports (4937, 4904), utilizing the knife-catch protocol. Short Opportunities: Look for backtests of 5045, 5081, and particularly 5108 for shorting. A breakdown below 4958 could open up downside targets. Profit-Taking: On shorts, consider taking profits entirely at major levels, especially given ES's tendency to short squeeze. Bull Case Reclaiming Resistances: Bulls need to regain control by reclaiming 5045 and pushing back into the red channel/flag around 5108 for a sustained recovery attempt. Holding Support: Defending the 4996-5000 zone is encouraging for bulls. If 4958 holds on a retest, it may signal a relief bounce. Adding on Strength: Breaks and acceptance above 5013 could offer opportunities for adding to long positions. Observe closely to ensure it's not a backtest for a downside rejection. Bear Case Breakdown Signals: A convincing break below 4958 triggers the downside move, likely targeting 4937 or lower.
