7/26: Daily Recap, Outlook, and Trading Plan
Recap
In the last week, ES built a sideways base after a steep rally, forming a new chart pattern between 4590s and 4560s. Yesterday, we saw a breakout and a continued upward trend. This pattern was a triangle with a bullish breakout bias, which broke out this morning at 4590, starting a push higher. However, there is concern as the breakout occurred before the FOMC meeting, adding risk to those in the breakout move.

Key Structures
The green triangle pattern broke out yesterday, with support now at 4564 and resistance around 4580. The light blue channel resistance broke out on July 13th and is now a key support at 4540. The major June/July resistance is at 4486-93, and the large rising uptrend channel in white has support currently at 4390 with resistance at 4635.
Support Levels
Supports are at 4593-95, 4580-84, 4572, 4565, 4560, 4555, 4542-44, 4537, 4525, 4515, 4493, 4486, 4474, 4462, 4453, 4448, 4442, 4430-35, 4425, 4414, 4408, 4402, and 4389-93.
Resistance Levels
Resistances are at 4603, 4608, 4612-14, 4624, 4635, 4650-53, 4665-70, 4683, 4694, 4700-03, 4709, 4725, and 4740.
Trading Plan
Today's trading plan will be light, perhaps not trading at all unless an A+ setup is seen. The core task for bulls will be to maintain the triangle breakout, particularly the triangle support at 4565. If a deeper sell is seen, 4545 is the final support before a deep leg down to 4490s.
Wrap Up
Heading into the FOMC meeting, it's important to note that these days are often filled with traps and are generally unpredictable. The best approach is to react to the market, not try to predict it. It's also crucial to size down and avoid gambling in the post-FOMC noise. Today, it will be important for bulls to hold 4565 on any FOMC flushes down.
