Dow Jones July NFP Range Play 5.25 to 1 Risk RewardI am expecting a spike down at NFP into the range yellow box. I don't know how deep into the box it will go and so I am forced to use a bigger stop to compensate as IF this play is to work then price cannot go below the yellow box. After the spike down, the trade should immediately be in profit for the explosive short squeeze 450 ticks higher to take out 39,850. All of these stacked highs are dead giveaways for a short squeeze. I will be placing my limit buy down in the yellow box at price 39,416 I will be placing my stop loss below the yellow box at price 39,336 for 80 ticks I will be placing my target at the stacked highs up near 39,850. I will be getting out before then at 39,830. Target 414 ticks

Dow Jones YM Futures Wednesday July 3rd Daytrading Setup LongI am looking for a continuation Long going into the double top at price target 39,844 I don't know where price will stop at during the pullback, either between the top third or the top half. I will target 39,830 to be conservative and get out before it reverses. I don't know where the top will be. Tomorrow will be the day before the 4th and so it also could be a chop day, I am not sure. All I know is that I don't need to know anything to make money. I will keep this post updated on my Live performance with my wins and losses. I am not afraid to show any of my losses as I know my win rate is 40% and I am quite wrong. I have no ego regarding this because my targets are always 3 or 4 to 1.

YM Short Trade SetupShort Trade Setup: Entry: Look for a break below the recent consolidation low, around 39,425. A breakdown with increased selling volume could signal further downside. Stop-Loss: Place the stop-loss just above the consolidation high or a recent resistance level, around 39,560. This minimizes risk in case of a false breakdown. Target: Set the initial target at the previous support area of around 39,225, with the potential to extend lower if the bearish trend continues.

YM Long Trade SetupLong Trade Setup: Entry: Look for a break above the recent consolidation high, around 39,560. If the price breaks above this level with strong volume, it could indicate a bullish move. Stop-Loss: Place the stop-loss slightly below the consolidation low or a recent support level, around 39,425. This helps protect against a false breakout. Target: Set the initial target at the recent high of around 39,850, with a potential to extend to higher levels if the bullish momentum continues.

Dow Jones Futures Month of July Day Trading Gameplan Now that June has printed, I am looking ahead for my gameplan on July. Still inside of the 4 hour Bear Flag, I am still bullish on price up until the yellow supply zone box. I am expecting a third hit to the top of the bear flag channel's top. The Green box is massive support and I am expecting the last two pivot highs to be taken out on the march higher. IF, my thesis is correct on this long term bull flag monthly pullback, then when price reaches the yellow box, it should continue with the selling, breaking the bear flag and dropping another 3,000 points. That should occur August roughly. I will do my best to buy pullbacks on the way back up. My Day Trading stats in June: 17 trades 9 losers 8 winners 47% win rate Avg win: 274.00 Avg loss: -142.00 Total Gain: 6% +912.50 My goal in July: 45% win rate 8% total gain

Dow Jones Friday Day Trading Buy Set UpThis week is shaping up to be a doji candle that is revolving around the Week's Open price of 39,589. I believe Friday will continue to be a range type of day that will go lower first then start to trade above Friday's open and another explosive short squeeze up to 39,705 before trading back down and closing near the week's open. I will be looking for a pullback on top of Friday's Open price of 39,501, which so coincidently happens to be Thursday's Open price as well. I measured 200 ticks above and below Friday's open as that is 0.50% move both +/- A range day typically rotates around a price level. I will use my 50 tick stop and 120-150 tick target if/when that sets up. I will allow myself two chances Friday. Two losses in a row and I walk away for the day. I use the 4 hour for direction and the 15 minute for my entry. Bias: I have a 90% lean towards going long up into yesterday's high/ the mid point of the yellow buy to sell box/ 0.50% move higher. Price target 39,705

Dow Jones futures eyeing bullish breakout?Sitting in a bullish pennant pattern with RSI and MACD pointing to building bullish momentum, it looks like we may soon see a test of topside resistance in Dow Jones futures, pointing to the potential for a bullish break or bearish reversal that may see the price coil up even further. Whatever outcome eventuates, we can build a trade setup around it using topside resistance. Should futures bust higher, consider buying the break with a tight stop below the former resistance level. The preference would be to see the price close above the level before initiating the trade as we saw a reversal take place the last time the level was tested. The initial trade target would be 40213, the high set that day, with the record high of 40358 the next level after that. If the trade works in your favour, consider raising your stop to entry level, or using a trailing stop if we see the record high give way. But should futures test resistance without being able to close above, consider selling the failure with a tight stop above the level for protection. Potential trade targets include 39658 and 39193. From a fundamental perspective, renewed signs of disinflation in the US economy adds to the risk we may see more than one rate cut delivered by the Fed this year. With activity holding up, at least according to the Atlanta Fed GDPNow estimate, the combination of rate cuts and resilient economic growth is the very definition of a textbook soft landing, an outcome that should benefit more cyclical indices such as the Dow.

Dow Jones Weekly Bullflag / Daily BearflagI ended up cancelling my sell orders at 40,056 due to more analysis. I believe price will shoot past that level and head up into the red sell zone at the top of the bear flag. Exactly where? I don't know. I will keep waiting for this pullback to continue. Ultimately, I am looking for another counter trend sell down into the grey box area before the next move higher. I am long term bullish on Dow Jones, price target 150,000 The thick Cyan line is 2024's open price and so far, price has been range bound oscillating around this level. I am expecting some ranging below this level as well, down into the grey box. To me, this looks like a giant accumulation area of buying inside of this huge bull flag in preparation of the next move higher.

Dow Jones Range Sell High Set UpMy last trade was a loss due to me selling in the middle of the range. Part of trading. On the 4 hour, I have drawn my range better using the orange Buy to Sell box as the top of the range and the May 30th as the bottom. I have marked the green and red dotted lines as stop loss liquidity targets Currently price is in a bullish impulse move higher I will take the aggressive entry with the limit order right under the buy to sell red line. Stop just above with 185 ticks. I am targeting the stops under the red dotted line and about the middle of the range because from there I am not sure where price will go after. I don't want to guess a break out of the downside if it indeed bounces off the middle and breaks out to the upside. If it breaks out to the upside then that will negate my bullflag thesis and I will have to rethink my longer term plan. The conservative entry is when it breaks the bull move's counter trendline in green. What makes me second guess the breakout to the downside is that this range is being stacked on top of the previous range with the May 30th bottom being right AT the middle of the last range. Trade Entry: Limit Sell Order 6 MYM Micros at Price: 40,042 Stop Loss at Price: 40,227 with 185 ticks. Risk: $555.00 Target: 39,172 with 870 ticks Potential Gain: $2,610.00 Potential Risk to Reward: 4.7R Estimated Time For Holding Trade: 3-6 days upon being filled

Dow Jones Daytrading Weekly Template Ahead Key LevelsSetting up my key levels for the current weekly template I will be expecting a range week as it is inside of a bear flag. Two levels that jump out at me are Last Week's Low and the middle of the range line at the bottom yellow box. I will be using those as targets. I think the 12's CPI was the last lower high and this week will make another lower high and new lower low. The average weekly candle is 947 ticks from high to low Some scenarios I can see playing out are the following It just depends on if price will work the high first or go down to the low and work that low. I will be looking out for June's Open price as a major resistance level. After going through the last 120 years on the monthly chart, 80% of all June's have been down months. I will be mostly looking for sells and will be using my trade management of: Max 2 Losses per day 50 tick stop losses 125 tick take profits 2.5 risk to rewards No trading the first hour 4 Hour trend/structure 15 minute entry time frame Shooting for 40-45% win rate
