I think I've found the Holy Grail. Maybe not the Holy Grail.
But it works well on Short timeframes. Only problem is I'm not a Day Trader so can only Swing Trade Indexes. Its at the point where I can't believe anyone loses Money Day Trading the ES - true
Don't beat up on me all at once. It'll probably stop working.

Why can't you day trade?
If you found the holy grail on index futures to the point where you can't believe anyone loses money day trading ES you're set for life. Just harvest and compound your stake.
Give it a shot.
All you Guys trade after Work I assume - 2 to 3 hours a Night or something?Why can't you day trade?

Secondly, I'll be classed as running a Business etc.
Thirdly, I doubt it'll last. All Edges fade don't they.
My trading model says today will be a consolidation day or continuation higher, so no shorts beyond a scalp at this point.
I went long at 71.50, but I might be early, so prepared to take a stop out and re-enter at lower prices if so be.
KISS.
Ofc, short covering post Hamas insanity -> marginal extension -> front run new paper shorting/hedging into CPI uncertainty.
That doesn’t make it a viable method. That’s punting.
So, you discovered the holy grail of short term trading index futures, arguably the hardest way in the world to make money, off a 15 minute delayed TradingView feed. Clearly with no experience day trading index futures.
In principle, you know nothing about (day) trading index futures profitably. This isn't meant to be derogatory, it's descriptive of your situation. So, maybe stay a bit more humble before you attack me (Scat's KISS TA thread) and others again.
It's common for people who are fresh to this game to think that they know more than they do.
Usually, they don't.
Settle down. Don't be a k#nt, thats me.
The system works, so far.
Problem is Tradingview Charts have a 15 minute delay. OK for Swing Trading but not for Day trading. I forgot that Tradingview has a 15 minute delay.
I'll just clarify. I generally Swing Trade, using Tradingview Charts (15 minute delay) and Selfwealth Brokerage platform.
I test with Tradingview Charts. The system works well. Only problem is I need to use it without a delay of 15 minutes.
My ES call before was made using the 15 minute delay lol. I forgot about the delay.
