/ES Plan: Yesterday market closed bearish (PBT 2711) and overnight is bearish (GBT 2685) moving below Yesterdays value, so we've 2 options:
A) If market remains below YVAL-LVN 2721-20 with bearish internals, try to be a seller leaning on 2721-20 towards PBT 2711 ONL 2709 and LVN 2704. 'Look below and fail' is a signal of strength.
B) If market starts to move above YVAL-LVN 2720 with bullish internals, try to be a buyer leaning on 2720-21 towards GAP 2728.50 ONH 2735 and VPOC 2740. 'Look above and fail' is a signal of weakness.
Tips: Market does appear to be calming down but depth of market (DOM) is still thin, mostly below 200s contracts, still seeing sweeps 5-6 ticks at a time and very few prints as we move through prices. If you can't trade using wide stops, I recommend to stay aside until the markets stabilize and recover a 'normal' regime.
