S&P 500 (ES) Daily Plan & Technical Analysis – 21st May 2025

Yesterday saw a mainly rangebound day with gradual lower highs developing which is hinting at weakness locally and we have nearly filled the impulsive move from Monday.

Heading into todays trading session London has opened bullish with a sweep of the previous days low. Now we need to keep and eye on if we see follow through on this move where we can expect a move to clean all the lower highs or if we will see a drop further in to support.

The below chart is a daily ES Futures chart, we can see yesterday closed with a potential reversal candle and yesterday’s low has already been taken. While the S&P 500 market structure is still bullish on the higher time frame we need to be aware of any subtle changes in the market which can feed in to our bias.
