6E this session (likely to move) ..

I just sent this Euro (6E) chart to a friend. If you look at the chart we have gone 3 days without an E/T Zone being hit. That is very rare and it is very likely that one gets tested this session.

YM Contract Notes: 21952 TS # is LIS Wednesday. This is not an error. LIS is inside RL which is very rare. Over/Holding HOS FTU I don't want to be short but under/holding I do, likley, see the Client Feed for R/T. Note: Wed bottom of RL is under Wed LOD. Watch for a potential short ambush by taking out Tues low and then pushing it over top of RL. If that is the case .. I wouldn't want to be long. Favoring (the better trade) .. Target lows of last week and today's HOL FTD if under/ holding HOS FTU. 

YM Macro Technical View: 22720, 21330 MTS #. Expectation for the past 2 months has been a grind up into August with any new lows ultimately being bought. Here we are in August at all time highs. The market feels immediately vulnerable to some swift down days. It is tough to see past that. Keep in mind Newton's laws of motion applies to markets.

YM Execution/Target Zones:
22299 Extreme Short
22053 - 22040 Highest Odds Short FTU
21992 - 21976 Range Short
21966 - 21930 Range Long
21643 - 21616 Highest Odds Long FTD
21580 - 21557 Extreme Long

Oil Heading into Friday May 19, 2017

Oil has been banging it's head on 49.54 MTS # all week. See below for the entire week's charts.


Specific Oil Analysis for Friday May 19, 2017 is at the bottom of this post.

Tuesday May 16, 2017 TS TradePlan Oil Review

Monday May 15, 2017 TS TradePlan Oil Review

IF we can get over 45.54 MTS # (M=Macro) I will be targeting 50.02 TS # initial and then 50.86 - 50.68 TS # Zone which is Friday's HOS FTU (Highest Odds Short First Time Up). That is the expectation. 

FAILURE to break / hold 45.54 means we likely test Friday's Range Long / HOL FTD from above and see if buyers are found. Friday's Range Long is 49.09 - 48.94 and HOL FTD is not far below that. A break of HOL FTD and could be trend down. Not the expectation but keep in mind my # 1 rule is anything is possible at any time.

Note the above prices are for M contract. We are trading N contract Friday.

Single Digit Execution / Target Zones

Sometimes we have single digit Execution/Target Zones as opposed to an actual Zone. These are usually pretty powerful. Examples from Friday March 24, 2017 below in ES / YM ..

Executing Trades with TS TradePlan

Sometime we get questions about how to interpret the TS #'s and Execution/Target Zones so I thought posting the 2 charts below may be helpful in showing how we look at things in the Private Client Feed. 

Keep in mind my way is just one way and certainly not the only way to execute using TS TradePlan.

Momentum Down Short Trade

Wed Jan 18, 2017 - TS TradePlan GC Gold Review and Private Client Feed Momentum Short Trade. 

I often get asked: "how do you use the Zones?" 

What TS TradePlan does for me is provide a context to the day. I ask myself how is price behaving in relation to TS TradePlan and the Execution/Target Zones? 

What is it trying to accomplish? 

What is it likely to do next?

Look at the logic behind today's momentum short trade ..

I couldn't always trade momentum just FYI. I had to learn. I wrote a post about it here: "Sports, Trading, and the Psychology of Improvement"
