Trading Plan ES TODAYCurrent Position: Average entry price stands at 5741, ATM.
Trading Plan:
Targeting a push toward 5800, with plans to exit prior to the U.S. market open.
Although seller momentum appears depleted, I remain cautious about the likelihood of a sustained rally.
Intraday Strategy:
Hold a bullish outlook until the market open.
Anticipate a retracement toward yesterday’s close, at which point I intend to re-enter long positions.
Monitoring Approach: I will closely supervise the U.S. market open trades with heightened scrutiny compared to pre-market positioning.

Bear Market or Short-term Sell-Off?The March CPI was reported at 3.5%, higher than expected on April 10. This development triggered a sharp decline in the stock market, with a total drop of 8.5% from the recent high.
Could this downward movement signal the onset of a major bear market, or is this sell-off simply a retracement, setting the stage for the bull market to resume?
We will explore this question by studying the following hypothesis:
• A rising CPI is a leading indicator of a bear market.
• A declining CPI is a leading indicator of a bull market.

SPY- Open Put Options to Hedge Long Stocks SHORTSPY on the 15-minute chart seems to have hit a pivot high. With a variety of long positions,
I need some insurance against a bull trap or even a black swan event in geopolitics. It seems
SPY puts would fulfill the purpose. Out of the money below the current price seems
opportunistic. Accordingly, I will take a handful of put options that expire at the mid- March
monthly 1% below current price. If the market is healthy these will drop in value especially
with time decay. They will serve as insurance. On the other hand if the market gets a cold
or worse a bad case of COVID, these will partially offset any losses while managing positions.
Levels for MES this weekAfter last weeks incredible failed breakdown we blasted back to the upside in which case

Anatomy of an MES day trade short, Target reachedMES consolidated early after the bell creating a really visible and tradable opening range. After M2K tipped its hand and showed clear weakness, a trade in MES lower became probable. Following the Trinity Trading setup we find a great entry with very low risk. This turned into a gorgeous easy hold for 3.89 R with plenty more on that run.
Weekly SPX Trade(another A ICT setup) 3/29/23Beautiful setup today and was able to catch a nice price swing. Here was once again my thinking for today and my reasoning for entry: Factors for trade:
Big London/Asian Session or Afterhours-Premarket run up.
Swept liquidity(high of day, premarket high)
