Who it is for
EDGE is for discretionary futures traders who work from their own setups, models and process across index and commodity contracts. Keep your methodology; the journal just makes the history behind it more useful. No broker connection is required, and EDGE never imposes a signal or a strategy.
Journal
A journal should not become a second job after trading. Record the instrument, Long or Short direction, result, setup and reasoning while the trade is still clear.
New Trade
Example“Rejected the overnight high twice; short the failed breakout with the stop above the high.”

Risk Calculator
Work out how many contracts and how much dollar risk your account, entry and stop allow, before you are in the trade.
Economic Calendar
See the scheduled high- and medium-impact releases that move index and commodity futures, so the macro backdrop to a session is there when you review a trade. EDGE does not predict market direction.
For Gold, Market Context adds a deeper fundamental read: evidence-backed macro drivers combined into one context alongside the futures you log.

Trade review
Trend Pullback · GC Long · Aug 12
Pullback into the prior session high; planned to wait for a higher low on the 5-minute chart.
Entered before the higher low formed. Moved to break-even, then closed at +1R into resistance.
Execution review
In fast futures markets a winning trade can still be a rushed entry, and a losing one can be textbook. Keep the setup or model, what happened in the session, plan adherence, trade management and screenshots with every contract, so the review is about the execution rather than the result alone.
Insight Engine
EDGE looks for supported patterns in your own trading history, not predictive signals. Review session or time-of-day, weekday, Long versus Short, setup, discipline and trade-management behavior with the evidence behind each conclusion.
Confidence reflects the relevant evidence available. More recorded trades can still change the picture.

Results & process
Judge the decision, not only the result. The EDGE Score rates each futures trade's decision quality from your plan adherence and recorded mistakes, never from its outcome, so a disciplined run and a lucky one do not look the same later.

Workflow
FAQ
It is a record of every futures trade and the thinking around it. In EDGE you log the contract, setup or model, reasoning, execution and result, then review how those trades behaved across your own history.
Yes. Log any index or commodity contract by recording the instrument, direction, result and session context. EDGE is not limited to futures, but nothing about the workflow assumes anything else.
No. EDGE is manual-first: you log each contract and its context by hand, so there is no broker or platform link to set up.
Setup or model, why you took the trade, what happened in the session, plan adherence, execution and trade-management context, plus screenshots when the chart matters.
No. EDGE is a futures journal and analytics tool, not a signal service. It never tells you which contracts to trade or when.
It looks for supported patterns in the trades you have recorded — session and time-of-day, weekday, Long versus Short, setup, discipline and trade management — and shows each with the evidence and a confidence level based on the relevant sample.
