Todayβs short setup in ES was executed to perfection β exactly as we mapped out over the weekend.
π Entry: 5694.5
π§ Plan: We discussed this trade in advance as a high-probability short idea, with two key conditions:
A gap down open or ETH sell-off
A rally in RTH into the low-volume node (LVN) from Friday at 5700β5705, followed by clear rejection
Both scenarios played out precisely. ETH opened weak and we saw the rally into the LVN, which was firmly rejected β triggering our short at 5694.5. Textbook execution.
π Current Key Level: 5662
This level is now our line in the sand. If buyers hold 5662 in ETH or RTH (regular trading hours), Iβll consider closing the short to protect gains.
However, if we lose 5662 with momentum, Iβll be holding the position with eyes on a potential liquidation toward the 5550β5600 zone.
π Game Plan Going Forward
Above 5662: Be cautious; buyers may try to trap shorts and squeeze higher.
Below 5662: Staying in the short, watching for acceleration toward next downside targets.
Iβll continue updating everyone live as things unfold, but for now β solid execution and positioning.
Reminder: Always trade your own plan and risk tolerance.
