Piece By Piece – June 13 ESDaily Gameplan

This week has been a textbook example

Structure First, Always

This week has been a textbook example of what I preach here at ESDaily:

Every day, ES builds — piece by piece.
Our job is to define what parts of the structure matter… and execute the highest probability trades based on that structure.

That’s why I don’t mind being patient.
Because patience isn’t passive — it’s a skill set.

You don’t trade every candle.
You don’t try to catch every move.
You define the setup, set the alert, and wait.
And when price gives it to you — you act.

The Week in Review

Let’s rewind:

📅 Wednesday AM — I pointed out the glaring negative divergence and said plainly:

My bet: the same price path ES always takes — a liquidity hunt, a structure reset, and then the real move.

CPI hit and ES popped to 6074
Then dumped 150 points — right back to 5930 our opportunity from yesterday
It was textbook trap-reversal structure — and we were ready.

Our Trades

In Thursday’s Gameplan I mapped it clean:

🟢 Long Opportunity – 5930
🟢 Long Opportunity – 5963

Price bottomed at 5927.50, and we were buyers.
Price reclaimed 5963, and we added.
Both trades hit target: 5982.
Then we sat.

No overtrading.
No chasing.
Just runners and risk-off.

Where We Are Now

ES is printing 5981 at the time of writing.
RSI is cooling off near 56.
Structure is holding — but we’re boxed inside layered resistance.

We’re sitting just under major supply at 6028–6034.
The megaphone likelihood of fleet movement came to be
6000 remains fragile.
And the window for whipsaws is still wide open.

That means nothing changes:

🧠 Let structure dictate action
💡 Let price prove the move
🧱 Let memory confirm the level

Let’s get straight to the opportunities now where that might be in today’s letter.

Couple Housekeeping Notes:
-I will be on vacation from Friday afternoon through Monday evening. I will be spending Father’s day traveling with my wife and kids. I still plan to get the most important levels I’m watching out to you in timely fashion. To all the dads out there, I hope you have an amazing Father’s Day. You’re awesome.

-The Trade Review Section will be updated each Monday evening. You’ll start to see all my trade reviews since the change in newsletter format start to populate in there next week.

-ES will roll over Monday June 16. We’ll be rolling to ESU25

- Trading in the chat has been a lot of fun and it allows me to get quicker ideas out as price comes into our areas. If you’ve not been inside, come say Hi. I’ve seen some great trades from others in there as well!
