ES Journal - 2025/2026

Or .... just trade micro timeframes like many of us here do.

 

I use ROC (% diff) lengths that are appropriate to the timeframe such as 15 & 30 for M1, and 12 & 24 for M5 for momo, trend and divergence.

Works well enough for my trading.

 

That’s rich bruh!

 

From my interpretation SPY daily closes were within Friday’s (bearish) candle so nothing bullish. More like a … Bearish consolidation / continuation pattern. I am asking more from PA than most here to prove something. Can be late but less “false” signals. That’s why I was short on the way up. For me the SPY didn’t even make a low this week (no bullish reversal). I had Friday’s high (+10sma +prevSwing) as an ideal short entry.

 

As expected today's volume, so far, is about double the typical amount.

 

Or don't max out on margin, just because some broker lets you trade ES with 500-100 USD

 

$DXY absolutely being crushed this morning - down almost 200 basis points from yesterday.

Gold taking a bit of a breather down approx -$80, and Crude down approx -$4

 

China down about 0.5%

NQ down about 4%

 

And on that NQ note anyone thinking gap fill any time today:-

yesterday's settlement was @ 19758.00 and is trading currently @ 18858.00 or 900 points lower!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
