📝 Trading Plan
Bull Case Analysis
Scenario Overview:
- Recent Trend: ES (S&P 500 futures) has experienced a strong bullish trend, marked by six consecutive green days.
- Bull Case Premise: Continuation of the uptrend through pattern formation and support maintenance.
Key Levels and Patterns:
- Support Zone: 4756, pivotal for bulls to maintain control.
- Target Range: 4756-4783, seen as a potential consolidation area.
- Upside Objective: A move towards the 4804-08 zone, acting as a magnet level.
Strategy and Risks:
- Pattern Building: Bulls expect ES to form a continuation pattern within the target range, setting the stage for another leg up.
- Risk of Breakdown: Failure to hold 4756 increases the risk of a backtest towards the 4710-05 area.
- Execution Caution: Traders should be wary of false breakouts and maintain strict risk management.
Bear Case Analysis
Scenario Overview:
- Bear Case Premise: A break below key support leading to a downward move.
Key Levels and Patterns:
- Critical Support: 4756, the level below which breakdown trades become viable.
- Target Short Entry: Around 4752, following a failed bounce at 4756.
- Profit Targets: First target at 4740-43, capturing the move below the day's low.
Strategy and Risks:
- Breakdown Trades: These are high risk/reward but have a low success rate (60% expected to fail).
- Execution Skill: Requires skill to execute successfully; not advisable for traders uncomfortable with these odds.
- Rule of Thumb: Avoid chasing the price; wait for a clear trade setup and reaction at the key level.
