Good morning,Very interesting day yesterday, particularly in the long term context of this market. There were attempts made to take the market lower during B period, when we explored the long term gap in the market by only a few ticks before rejecting out trapping the shorts.

Good morning,Hope you all had a nice weekend. Friday was a really interesting day, and following some initial strong momentum to the upside, we couldn't meaningfully take out, what's now become a key level, 3017. The significance of this level was only spotted during some back-testing before the open on Friday, and it corresponds to … Continue reading Monday 23rd September – ES_F Review →

Morning Traders,Yesterday we saw really strong trade off the open, but following the repair of the poor high from last week at 3023, we sold off for the rest of the day - it really felt coming in that we'd have a trend day up and that was our bias when taking trades.

Morning Traders,Very quiet day yesterday meaning we didn't take a single trade - this is a regular occurance in the days leading up to an FOMC rate announcement with no traders willing to make any commitment in pushing sufficient volume of order flow to give the market a coherent direction. If trading is your full … Continue reading Wednesday 18th September – ES_F Review →

Good morning Traders,Difficult day yesterday, personally speaking I didn't have a great read of the market as I was distracted with some life admin! Whilst we were strong off the open, we had significant rejection out of Friday's range with prices being front-run on the short side. This was our early clue for how the … Continue reading Tuesday 17th September – ES_F Review →

Morning Traders,Hope you all had a nice weekend, and are ready to go for another week on the ES! We conducted our review of last week this morning and have some potential outcomes for this week which we'll share over the next few days, especially in the context of the FOMC meeting on Wednesday night … Continue reading Monday 16th September – ES_F Review →

Typically on a Monday morning, we'll spend time reviewing the previous week, so today being Sunday, I'm going through my trades from last week … Continue reading Weekend Review →

Apologies traders,We had issues with our data overnight following trying to roll from U contract to Z contract, which has resulted in us staying in U contract for today - volumes are comparable between the two contracts for now. We’ll probably stick on U today and complete the roll over the weekend - levels we … Continue reading Friday 13th September – ES_F review →
