Today’s session in ES SEP25 offered a two-phase structured move, providing a clear demonstration of how order flow references such as VC Zones, TBTS, and ME levels bring clarity in intraday trading. A total of 30 points was mapped across these phases.

🔹 Phase 1 – VC Zone Breakout

• VC Zone Breakout @ 6500 acted as the trigger level.
• The move extended through ME-1 @ 6490 and ME-2 @ 6480, highlighting the role of reference levels in step-by-step monitoring.

Educational Note: VC Zones often represent areas of trapped activity. Breakouts from these regions allow traders to measure conviction and risk using ME levels as checkpoints.

🔹 Phase 2 – TBTS Confirmation

• A TBTS Alert @ 6493 marked the second phase.
• The move continued with ME-1 @ 6503, validating the sustained directional conviction.

Educational Note: TBTS (Trapped Buyers/Trapped Sellers) provides confirmation when price rejects or absorbs activity at key points, ensuring structured tracking rather than speculative entries.

🎯 Key Takeaway

This session’s 30-point move reinforces the importance of combining:

• VC Zones → for breakout identification.
• ME Levels → for structured laddering of moves.
• TBTS Alerts → for conviction and confirmation.

Such systematic mapping helps traders understand where conviction lies and how to align their decisions with order flow context, instead of reacting emotionally to price swings.
