AM Briefing Video – Weekend Market Prep
Welcome to the AM Briefing Video
Presented by MicrosTrader.com, where together we trade better.
Happy Saturday, March 15th! Let’s dive into the weekend briefing and get prepared for Sunday night’s trading session.
Scripture of the Week
Philippians 2:3
"Do nothing out of rivalry or conceit, but in humility, consider others as more important than yourselves."
I was reading through Spurgeon’s study notes in my Logos software, and he had an insightful comment on this verse:
"The Apostle knew that to create unity and harmony, you need first to have humility of mind, like our Lord Jesus Christ."

Trading Performance & Strategy
This week, our system had:
- ✅ 14 winning trades
- ❌ 0 losses
- ➖ 1 break-even trade
We typically average 2-10 trades per day, with about one losing trade per week (or every other week).
Trading Tip of the Day
"Map out your trades and wait."
Trading isn’t hard—the waiting is hard. Keeping your hands off the mouse and avoiding impulsive trades is the real challenge.
Market Outlook & Key Events This Week
If you’re considering taking a week off, this is the week to do it!
- Monday: Retail Sales Report (**Pre-Rollover Trading Day**)
- Tuesday: **Contract Rollover** (expect liquidity shifts)
- Wednesday: **FOMC Announcement** (major volatility expected)
- Thursday: Post-FOMC reaction day
- Friday: **Options Expiration (OPEX)**
Risk Management Tip:
- ➡️ Reduce contract size to allow for a wider stop-loss while respecting your leverage metrics.
- ➡️ Adjust your parameters in the Core Strategy Academy, especially for large candles.
Contract Rollover – What You Need to Know
Currently, the March contract still has higher volume. We will continue trading March on Monday, then roll over to June on Tuesday.
📌 No strong levels update this weekend—we’ll reassess after rollover.
Trade Review & Market Levels
On Friday, we were looking for longs back into the range to target the top of the range—and that’s exactly what happened!
Strong Levels & Trend Analysis
- 🔹 Trendline Observations:
- We adapted the parabolic trendline multiple times.
- Until Friday’s low breaks, bears remain in control.
- If bulls break above Friday’s low, expect a major rally.
