Key levels
Context
ES remains in a strong uptrend after this week's breakout into new all-time highs. The market is now testing whether the previous all-time high (7718–7739) can become new support. That is the key higher-low area today. If buyers defend this zone, the trend remains intact and new highs remain the expectation. If 7718 fails, expect a deeper pullback into 7648–7632 before looking for the next long opportunity.
