SPX E-Mini (ES_F) Elliott Wave: Another Buying Setup

As our members know we have had many profitable trading setups in Indies recently.   In this technical article, we are going to present another Elliott Wave trading setup we got in SPX E-Mini (ES_F) . The futures has extended pull back, giving us another buying opportunity., ES_F completed this correction precisely at the Equal Legs zone, referred to as the Blue Box Area. In the following sections, we will delve into the specifics of the Elliott Wave pattern observed and discuss the corresponding trading setup in detail.

ES_F Elliott Wave 1  Hour  Asia Chart 04.05.2024

Current view suggests ES_F are undergoing ((iv)) black correction. The price has reached a new extreme zone at 5205.5-5144.21, where we would like to be buyers again.

We’re entering long positions within the Blue Box. As the main trend remains bullish, we anticipate at least a 3-wave bounce from this area. Once the price touches the 50 fibs against the (b) blue connector, we’ll make positions risk-free and set the stop loss at breakeven and book partial profits. Breaking below the 1.618 Fibonacci extension level at 5144.21 would invalidate the trade.

Quick reminder on how to trade our charts :

Red bearish stamp+ blue box = Selling Setup
Green bullish stamp+ blue box = Buying Setup
Charts with Black stamps are not tradable.

The future has found buyers as expected and is showing a decent bounce from the Buying Zone. We count the pullback ((iv)) black as completed at the 5191.37 low. Consequently, long positions should now be risk-free. We’ve set our stop loss at breakeven and have already secured partial profits. Now, we would like to see a break of the ((iii)) black peak to confirm that the next leg up is in progress. Alternatively, if the price breaks below 5191.37 low, the futures will open up the possibility for a deeper pullback. In that case, long positions will be stopped out, and we will look to buy the dips again at the next set of equal legs.

Keep in mind that market is dynamic and presented view could have changed in the mean time.
