Context
Overnight, ES pushed into 7,410 (ATH) and pulled back to an overnight low of 7,377, now rotating around 7,395. That gives us a cleaner structure now: 7,410 = real rejection / breakout level 7,390–7,377 = primary pullback demand Market still holding elevated price after a strong run This is no longer about 7,400 itself. The real question is: Does ATH reject again? Or finally break and hold?

- I'd like to see a pullback towards the 732.50 or 730 spot today. I like those two levels below to look for new longs to step up. The 735 highs will be the level to be cautious of rejections at today. If we flip above 735, new ATH continuation is possible. Below 730.25, we could see the fail towards PDL at 728. We still have a gap to fill below 727 towards 724.
