Day 64 — Trading Only S&P Futures | 6/7 Signal AccuracyRecap & Trades
Day 64 — a clean, structured trading day.
Started small with team trades from Bia’s setups, and when we hit the bottom of the day, I saw the double bottom support and multiple buy signals align.
That was the cue. I went long, set a 20-point trailing stop, and let the algo handle the rest.
Sometimes, the best play is not to overtrade — just trust your plan.
Lesson & Mindset
When you’re in sync with your system, execution becomes effortless.
The double bottom setup plus confluence from team signals made this a high-confidence day.
This is how professional consistency looks — smaller, cleaner, smarter.
News & Levels
Markets dipped after fresh layoff reports hit — Dow down 300, VIX spiked — but the bounce off key support shows resilience.
Tomorrow’s levels: Above 6835 bullish, below 6810 bearish.
Trade ideas
ES UpdateTrying to break through the resistance line, not sure what's gonna happen tonight.
Open gap always makes me bearish, so I did not go long again after I dumped my calls on open. Just waiting for MFI to get overbought so I can buy puts. Guessing that will happen by Wed open.
Not sure why foreign markets gapped up because of the shutdown ending, and the market didn't tank because of the shutdown so there's really no reason for it to rally now that it's ending..... so I'm expecting a pump and dump.
Sorry, no arrows today.
I Made $911 Trading S&P Futures | Day 65 Market BreakdownI made $911 today trading S&P Futures.
It didn’t come easy — I barely slept last night, and my overnight orders failed around 3 AM.
So I reset, stepped back, and waited for the one setup I’ve been tracking all week — the 6666 support bounce.
Here’s how it played out, and what the VX Algo system showed me before the move.
Pre-market sentiment was mixed. We had lingering shutdown headlines and low liquidity early in the session.
But structurally, the market was leaning bullish on higher timeframes — meaning any deep dip would likely get bought.
I had my eye on 6666 since last Friday as a key level.
That’s where gamma support, 5-min MOB, and prior structure all aligned — a textbook reversal zone.
When we got the VXAlgo ES X1 and NQ X3 buy signals near that level, I went long.
Used smaller sizing at first, added into strength, and locked profits using a trailing stop.
The bounce hit perfectly, and I was able to walk away green.
Even though I made money, I caught myself getting a bit greedy lately.
It’s a reminder — consistency comes from execution, not expectation.
The market will give you what it gives — your job is to wait for alignment and trade clean.
3 out of 4 signals worked today for at least 5 points each.
Tomorrow’s levels: Above 6822 bullish, below 6782 bearish.
ES (SPX, SPY) Analysis, Key Zones, Setups for Thu (Nov 6)The daily trend has softened following the formation of a lower high. Analysis of the 4-hour chart indicates a bounce that encountered resistance near the 6860–6870 range, subsequently retreating to the 6810 support level. As we look ahead to tomorrow's trading, consider the 6805–6808 range as the key intraday “threshold” while the 6830–6835 zone will serve as the first significant resistance level to watch.

ES (SPX, SPY) Week Ahead Analysis, Levels (Nov 10th - 14th)Context (HTF)
Price action has shown a notable rebound from the 6655 level, currently approaching the 6800 to 6810 range, which is characterized by recent supply identified on the 1-hour and 4-hour charts. Despite the ongoing lower-highs structure observed on the 4-hour timeframe, momentum appears to be shifting positively following Friday’s significant low. Traders should anticipate a period of two-way trading early in the week, likely within the 6650 to 6850 corridor, until mid-week economic data provides clearer direction.
Setups (Level-KZ Protocol 15/5/1)
1) Rejection Fade @ 6800–6810 (Tier-1 if first touch)
15m rejection back inside → 5m re-close below with LH → 1m first pullback fail.
Entry: 6798–6808 on 1m fail. SL: 15m wick-high +0.25–0.50.
TP1: 6768–6775 (S1). TP2: 6723 (S2). Viability gate: TP1 ≥ 2.0R using the 15m-wick stop.
2) Acceptance Continuation > 6810
15m full-body close above → 5m pullback holds 6805–6810 → 1m HL entry.
Entry: 6808–6812. SL: 6794–6798 (15m wick).
TP1: 6838–6848 (R2). TP2: 6885–6905 (R3). No trailing before TP2; at TP1 close ~70%, set runner to BE.
3) Quick-Reclaim Bounce @ 6765–6775 (Tier-2)
Sweep S1 → instant reclaim on 5m → 1m HL.
Entry: 6767–6774. SL: 6756–6759.
TP1: 6798–6810. TP2: 6835–6845.
4) Exhaustion Flush Bounce @ 6648–6658 (Tier-3)

What can move ES this week (keep risk light around release windows)
• Tue (Nov 11): Veterans Day — equities open, U.S. bond market closed; liquidity can be thinner.
• Thu (Nov 13, 8:30 ET): October CPI.
• Thu (Nov 13, 8:30 ET): Initial jobless claims (weekly).
• Fri (Nov 14, 8:30 ET): October PPI and Advance Retail Sales.
• Fed speakers/boards: See the Fed’s official calendar for any added talks this week.
• Earnings of note: Several large caps report mid-week (e.g., Cisco; Disney). Expect single-name volatility spillover.
Notes for execution: mark the zones on 15m; wait for your 15→5→1 confirmation sequence; enforce the 2.0R viability gate using the 15m wick stop; no partials before TP1; max two tries per level.
ES (SPX, SPY) Analysis, Levels, Setups for Wed (Nov 5th)News & timing (ET): ADP 8:15; ISM Services PMI 10:00; EIA Crude 10:30. Release status: all three are scheduled to run (not shutdown-affected).
Bias & context: Short-term trend remains lower after a sequence of 15m lower-highs/lows and failure to hold 6,793–6,805. Expect dip-buys to be sold unless 6,860+ is reclaimed and defended.
Overnight → NY forecast:
Base path: probe 6,748–6,756 into Asia/London, bounce to 6,793–6,805, then decide at NY open. Lose 6,748 on momentum and the magnet becomes 6,713–6,725.
Alt squeeze: reclaim and hold above 6,852–6,860, push to the 6,900–6,906 “gate”, then 6,940–6,955. Only above 6,955 can 6,968–6,985 and 7,020–7,052 come into play.
Bear extension: clean break and 15m body acceptance below 6,713–6,725 opens 6,660s (deeper extension) before any meaningful bounce.
Key-Zones
Resistance (top→bottom):
7,020–7,052 premium band (W3 major; first touch favors profit-taking)
6,968–6,985 measured-extension / weak-high pocket (W2)
6,940–6,955 prior distribution top / supply shelf (W2)
6,900–6,906 immediate ceiling “gate” (W2 pivotal)
Support (top→bottom):
6,852–6,860 defended floor / quick-reclaim bounce zone (W2)
6,793–6,805 swing-equilibrium magnet (W2)
6,748–6,756 next demand shelf / measured support (W2)
6,713–6,725 extension target and last strong shelf before deeper repricing (W3)
Setups (Level-KZ Protocol 15/5/1)
Rejection Fade (short): sell 6,852–6,860 or 6,900–6,906 after a 15m rejection close back inside → 5m re-close in your favor; use the 15m wick +0.25–0.50 pts as hard SL. TP1 = next opposing MAJOR level (e.g., 6,805 then 6,756).
Acceptance Continuation (long): only after a full-body 15m close above 6,860 and a 5m pullback that holds; target 6,900–6,906 → 6,940–6,955; invalidate on a 15m close back below 6,852.
Quick-Reclaim Bounce (Tier-2): flush into 6,748–6,756, instant reclaim on 1–5m, enter on first HL; TP1 = 6,793–6,805; invalidate on a 15m close back below the shelf.
Exhaustion Flush (Tier-3): if 6,748 breaks with force and a 15m body holds below, sell the first 1–5m LH; TP1 = 6,713–6,725; runner eyes 6,660s if momentum persists.
Risk & management (use consistently):
Instructions: only take a setup if TP1 ≥ 2.0R using the 15m-wick SL.
At TP1: close 70%, set 30% runner to BE; runner aims TP2 at the next major level.
No trailing before TP2. Time-stop 45–60m if neither TP1 nor SL hits. Max 2 attempts per level per session.
Kill-zones (ET): London 02:00–05:00 (optional ½–¾ size); NY AM 09:30–11:00 (primary); NY PM 13:30–16:00 (primary). Manage only 12:00–13:00.
What flips decision:
Bullish: sustained 15m acceptance above 6,860 then above 6,906 turns path toward 6,940–6,955 → 6,968–6,985.
Bearish: 15m acceptance below 6,748 invites 6,713–6,725; losing that level opens 6,660s before any notable bounce.
Week 11.03 - 11.07 Prep Last Week :
Last week we opened on a gap above Value and made a push over Edge top where we found our top and larger sellers for the week. Return to above VAL provided selling back into and eventually under the Edge. Holding under the Edge got us under MAs and changed the trend from uptrend to downtrend on 30m and 1h Time Frames, 2hr and 4hr frames only changed into correction without fully changing into downtrend. Holds under the Edge also provided good sells into lower VAH/Value for the gap fill towards end of the week when we got Month End profit taking but we were not able to fill the gap, instead we ran out of Supply Friday Midday and got end of the week short covering which drove price back out Value without filling the gap or staying in Value.
This Week :
So far this week we have again opened over Value and have been balancing between VAH and Edge in Globex, right now Edge again provided good sell back towards VAH and it may seem like it can continue selling but this will be the area to be careful at, at least to start the week as we are starting New Month, New week and it would be best to see what order flow we get, of course it is possible that we just continue lower right away but also this could be an area where we will see more covering above the Gap which can keep price over it and eventually once selling slows down could give another rotation towards/into and possible over the Edge.
As mentioned last week we are currently inside 915 - 875 +/- Intraday Range with 900 - 890 being its mean and price can stay within this range until it accepts under 870 - 65 areas without popping back over 75 then we know we have accepted in lower Intraday Range of 870 - 830 and can continue through its targets which would be 855 - 845 Mean area and down into/towards 830 - 20s. If we do hold this current range we are in then it is still possible that it will bring more buying as buyers like to start getting in once price holds which could still push us up towards/over the Edge and maybe even back towards above VAL, how far over Edge we get would be determined by order flow IF it happens but this will be the spots to be careful on the long side instead of getting excited for new ATH or continuation over previous one even if we take it out. Our bigger sellers will still be lurking over the Edge and closer to above VAL which means if we see a push out we could either see a quick or after consolidation return back under the Edge.
For price to change things back into stability or strength from here we would need a strong push over VAL with Medium/Larger MAs following behind us for support to be able to hold the price in/around new Value to show acceptance in New Hourly Range, unless this happens we have to keep thinking that top is in for now and look for return trips away from it which would make price want to return to previous Value.
If we do get strong selling continuation today/tomorrow through 70 - 65 and keep it under then of course we will go with that and keep targeting the Mean/Gap fill and push under the Mean but unless you see clear selling under 70 - 65 careful looking for too much continuation from here early on, it might take few days to decide what we will do and get ready for a good move into lower Value which maybe happen either from above the Edge or once we hold under it long enough and change trend on 2hr and 4hr Frames.

*Before reading this trade plan, IF, you did not read yesterdays, or the Weekly Trade Plan take the time to read it first! (You can see both posts in the related publication section) *
If my posts provide quality information that has helped you with your trading journey. Feel free to boost it for others to find and learn, also!
My daily trade plan and real-time notes that I post are intended for myself to easily be able to go back and review my plan and how I did from an execution perspective.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since we continue to chop around in this range between 6770-6850, I will not get into too much detail about yesterday's price action as you can take a look at my trade plan from yesterday and read through the notes and what my expectation were and levels, we had to execute the trade plan!
Today we have ADP Employment numbers, PMI & ISM with tomorrow being the Jobs Report!
Our overnight low is 6804 and our high is 6835. As of typing this plan, you can clearly see that we have made lower lows, and lower highs overnight, so far. We are in a tight 30 pt range and bigger picture, I have talked this week about how 6856-60 a big resistance. I have also stated that 6690-95 is our level that needs to hold to keep the bigger picture bull case intact.
I expect a lot of choppy/trapping today and tomorrow. IF price does clear 6870, we should run back to new highs. IF price loses 6750, my expectation is that we test 6719, 6680.
Until we clear 6870, the current trend is for price action to lose 6750 and create a new lower low.
Key Levels Today -
1. Loss of 6807 and reclaim
2. Loss of 6792 and reclaim
3. Loss of 6773 and reclaim
4. Loss of 6749 and reclaim
IF price clears 6835 (Overnight high) prior to 9:30am open, we could see some FOMO and chasing at the open. IF price does fall back into the overnight range, I would be careful as we could head lower.
Key Support Levels - 6823, 6807, 6792, 6773, 6765, 6758, 6750
Key Resistance Levels - 6835, 6843, 6849, 6857, 6867, 6873
Until price creates a higher high, I have to defer to the current micro trend which is the probability of price to continue lower.
I will post an update around 10am EST.

Couple of things about how I color code my levels.
1. Purple shows the weekly Low
2. Red shows the current overnight session High/Low (time of post)
3. Blue shows the previous day's session Low (also other previous day's lows)
4. Yellow Levels are levels that show support and resistance levels of interest.
5. White Levels are previous days session High/Low

My daily trade plan and real-time notes that I post are intended for myself to easily be able to go back and review my plan and how I did from an execution perspective.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yesterday we had some great levels that hit and followed through. I stated in my trade plan that "IF we lose, 6843, we will probably flush pretty quickly lower"
Overnight we saw this and our overnight low is 6785 and high is 6882. That is about a 100pt move overnight. I have mentioned many times that the bigger picture trend is up and that would not change unless we lose 6690. We have to respect the trend and look for prices to move higher. When we get a nice sell off like we have overnight, we need to retest the levels above and see if we can continue higher. Bears are fully in control and until 6918 is retaken, we have to expect selling on any back tests of higher prices.
Key Levels Today -
1.Loss of 6812 and reclaim (Micro level reclaim)
2. Loss of 6785 and reclaim
3. Loss of 6801 and reclaim (IF 6785 is the low for the day, this might be the best spot to grab points before it moves higher)
4. Below the overnight low and 6776 and reclaim is next level lower of interest
5. Loss of 6767 and reclaim
Key Support Levels - 6812, 6801, 6792, 6785, 6776, 6773, 6767
Key Resistance Levels - 6824, 6830, 6837, 6843, 6849, 6862-65
My general lean today is that we can back test 6843, 6862-65. I will be looking for a pullback to 6801 level and reclaim to grab some points. The only other option will be looking for a base to be built at one of the levels in yellow and create a strong support that provides an opportunity to enter long for a level-to-level move. 6824 resistance is a good spot to long for a move up the levels. It could be a tricky level to engage as it will probably take a few attempts to clear. Once it clears, it should move quickly up the levels to back test 6843, 6862-65.
I will post an update around 10am EST.

Overnight low is 6715 and high is 6771. We have continued to create lower lows and as I have mentioned all week, we are getting close to the 6690 bigger trend breakdown. I do think today we have some good levels to grab some points and could produce a nice short squeeze.
Key Levels Today -
1. Loss of 6715 and reclaim
2. Loss of 6703 and reclaim
3. Loss of 6696 and reclaim
4. Loss of 6690 (maybe down to 6683 and reclaim).
Key Support Levels - 6711, 6703, 6696, 6690, 6683, 6675, 6666

Until price creates a higher high, I have to defer to the current micro trend which is the probability of price to continue lower. IF we lose 6690 and cannot reclaim 6785, we could melt down next week.

Institutions were buying at the 6800 level between 8:30am-9:30am and we flushed down to 6786, reclaimed and then went higher and back tested to 6849 and then started to sell off in the afternoon. This is a typical bear market type of price action where price is being sold into strength, and we continue to make lower lows and lower highs. I would get used this type of price action as we could continue to see this over the coming months.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overnight low is 6749 and the high is 6807 with 6800 being heavy resistance that needs to clear for us to continue up the levels. IF price does head higher, we should test 6810, 6823. Technically IF price wants to continue higher, we need to clear 6849.
IF price does not clear 6800 and we lose 6749, we will need to see if price can react at 6734 or lose 6719 and reclaim to back test 6750 and potentially try to go higher.
I have said over the past few weeks that we have to remain bullish unless we lose the 6690 level. Last week we closed at the prior week lows and so far, we are trending to potentially do the same this week if price can hold 6690.
Key Levels Today -
1. Loss of 6775 and reclaim (This has been tested as I write this post, so will be weaker on next attempt)
2. Loss of 6765 and reclaim

4. Loss of 6749 and reclaim (Overnight Low)
5. Loss of 6734 and reclaim

Below these levels and I don't get very interested until 6690-95.
Key Support Levels - 6775, 6765, 6758, 6749, 6734, 6726, 6719
Key Resistance Levels - 6786, 6800, 6807, 6816, 6823, 6831, 6843, 6849
Until price creates a higher high, I have to defer to the current micro trend which is the probability of price to continue lower.
I will post an update around 10am EST.

Couple of things about how I color code my levels.
1. Purple shows the weekly Low
2. Red shows the current overnight session High/Low (time of post)
3. Blue shows the previous day's session Low (also other previous day's lows)
4. Yellow Levels are levels that show support and resistance levels of interest.
5. White shows the trendline from the August lows
ES Update - Breakout backtestSorry that I'm fixated on the TACO gap a little too much, I realized that this drop isn't about the TACO drop, it's back testing the breakout, which is pretty typical, it did the same last year on the election news. Especially considering it broke out on fake news, lol.
So market probably open right here at the line and decides whether to tank or go up. Seeing that there's an open gap above for NQ, I'm guessing up.
The back test has to happen during actual market hours, so I'm thinking the market opens up somewhere in this area.

Two fundamental charts that call for cautionAfter several months of almost uninterrupted gains in U.S. equity markets, certain sentiment and positioning indicators suggest that a mature phase of the bullish cycle has now been reached. Two recent charts, published respectively by BofA Global Research and Real Investment Advice, clearly illustrate this state of moderate euphoria, which warrants a more cautious approach.
The first chart, taken from the BofA Global Fund Manager Survey (FMS), shows that the average level of cash held by major institutional managers has fallen to 3.8% of assets under management, a cycle low. Historically, such low cash levels indicate high risk-taking and strong confidence in the market’s continued rise. BofA notes that a cash level of 3.7% or less constitutes a “sell” signal in their framework, as it suggests professional investors have little remaining dry powder to buy in case of a correction. In other words, the market’s “marginal buying power” is now limited.
The second chart, published by Real Investment Advice, highlights the evolution of margin debt in the U.S.—the money borrowed by investors to buy stocks on credit, in other words, leverage. It currently sits at exceptionally high levels, far above its 48-month moving average. Every past episode of excessive margin debt—during the 2000 dot-com bubble, the 2008 financial crisis, or the 2021 speculative mini-cycle—was followed by a sometimes brutal normalization phase. These periods do not necessarily mark the start of a bear market but often signal a heightened vulnerability to any negative economic, geopolitical, or financial news.
The combination of these two signals—fully invested managers and massive use of leverage—reflects an environment of extreme confidence. Such a configuration is common at the end of bullish cycles: investors seek to capture the last gains of a rally, but the slightest disappointment can trigger quick profit-taking.
Without announcing an imminent reversal, these indicators call for prudent management: reassessing exposure to risky assets, strengthening diversification, and keeping cash available to seize potential opportunities during pullbacks.

The use of Internet-based systems can involve high risks, including, but not limited to, fraud, cyber-attacks, network and communication failures, as well as identity theft and phishing attacks related to crypto-assets.
Understanding Money Flow Index In TradingMoney Flow Index (MFI) is a volume-weighted oscillator (0–100) that blends price and volume to show where real buying or selling pressure is building. By comparing positive vs. negative money flow from the Typical Price ((H+L+C)/3) and volume, MFI acts like a volume-aware RSI .
Traders use it to spot overbought/oversold zones (commonly >80/<20), confirm trend regimes around the 50 line, and catch divergences that often precede reversals. It’s simple, fast, and works across stocks, crypto, and FX—best used with a clear market structure and disciplined risk management.
1) Why is MFI important in trading?
MFI blends price and volume into a single oscillator, helping you spot exhaustion, confirm trends, and catch divergences earlier than price-only tools. Think of it as a volume-weighted RSI that validates whether a move is backed by real participation.
Captures “true” buying/selling pressure via volume.
Flags overbought/oversold zones more selectively than RSI.
Great for divergences, regime reads, and pullback timing.
2) MFI Components
Typical Price (TP): (High + Low + Close) / 3
Raw Money Flow (RMF): TP × Volume
Positive/Negative MF: Sum RMF on up-TP vs down-TP bars
Money Flow Ratio (MFR): PMF / NMF
MFI Line (0–100): RSI-style transform of MFR
Default length: 14 (common, tweakable)
3) MFI Formula
//@version=5
// Formula sketch (not an executable script)
TP_t = (high + low + close) / 3
RMF_t = TP_t * volume
// Over N bars:
PMF = sum( RMF_t where TP_t > TP_{t-1} )
NMF = sum( RMF_t where TP_t < TP_{t-1} )
// If TP_t == TP_{t-1}, ignore bar
MFR = PMF / NMF
MFI = 100 - (100 / (1 + MFR))
4) Interpreting MFI signals
Here’s how to read the line like a pro.
Zones: Overbought > 80 (extreme > 90), Oversold < 20 (extreme < 10)
Divergences: Bearish = price HH while MFI LH; Bullish = price LL while MFI HL
Midline/Regimes: Above 50 favors bulls; below 50 favors bears
Failure swings: Overbought → pullback → lower MFI high while price retests = caution
5) Trend & Momentum Analysis
Use MFI to confirm trend strength and quality.
Bullish ranges: MFI oscillates ~40–90 in uptrends; 50 often holds on dips
Bearish ranges: MFI oscillates ~10–60; rallies stall near 50–60
Momentum bursts: Fast pushes into 80–90 after consolidation often precede breakouts
Multi-timeframe: Align higher-TF MFI regime (e.g., 1D) with lower-TF entries (e.g., 1H)
6) MFI-Based Trading Strategies
Practical, testable rules you can refine.
A) Mean Reversion (Counter-Trend)
Entry: MFI < 20 → bullish reversal candle or break of minor swing high
Invalidation: Below the setup candle’s low or last swing low
Exits: MFI back to 50–60, or retest of VWAP/mid-channel
B) Breakout Confirmation
Precondition: Sideways range, contracting volatility
Trigger: Close outside the range and MFI > 55–60 (or spike > 80)
Exits: Trail behind structure/ATR; partials at measured move of the range
C) Trend Pullback Buy
Context: Uptrend with MFI mostly > 50
Entry: Pullback drives MFI into 40–50 then curls up; enter on HH/HOC close
Exits: Prior high, Fib extensions, or when MFI loses 50 again
D) Divergence Reversal
Trigger: Clear price/MFI divergence + break of a micro trendline or last swing
Risk: Tight stop past divergence origin
Targets: Midline 50 first, then opposing extreme 80/20
Confluence ideas: Pair with RSI, OBV, Bollinger Bands, or Volume Profile; require session/time filters for intraday assets.
7) Limitations of MFI
Know where it can mislead you.
Strong trends can pin MFI at extremes (overbought can stay overbought).
Volume quality matters (tick volume ≠ , centralized exchange volume).
Parameter sensitivity: too short = noise; too long = lag.
Data irregularities (thin books, outages, rollovers) can skew readings.
8) Optimization
Smart tweaks that actually help in live markets.
Dynamic Zones: Replace fixed 80/20 with rolling percentiles (e.g., 90th/10th of last 252 bars).
Adaptive Length: Tie MFI length to ATR/realized vol to reduce whipsaws.
Session Filters: Act only during liquid sessions; avoid lunch hours/illiquid opens.
Walk-Forward Testing: Validate across regimes; don’t overfit one market.
Risk First: Size by ATR; plan partials; use time-based exits to avoid stagnation.
9) Key Takeaways
Wrapping it up with what matters most.
MFI is a volume-aware oscillator that improves on RSI in participation-heavy moves.
Use 50 as a regime filter; use 80/20 (or dynamic zones) for edges.
Best signals: divergences, trend-pullback resets, and breakouts with MFI thrust.
Respect limitations: trends can pin MFI; validate with structure and clear risk controls.
Optimize with percentile zones, adaptive lengths, and session filters—then forward-test.
