summary: bookmarks save your go-to report pages for one-click access. watchlists manage the tickers you trade and let you switch between them instantly.

bookmarks and watchlists both help you navigate edgeful faster — but they do different things.

intro

the right nav panel on every report page is your command center. it stays open as you navigate — giving you persistent access to templates, bookmarks, and your watchlist all in one place.

bookmarks

bookmarks save report pages so you can get back to them in one click. they live in the right navigation bar on any report page.

what a bookmark saves

a bookmark saves the report — not a specific ticker or session combination. so if you bookmark the gap fill report, that bookmark always takes you to gap fill. which ticker and session you see when you get there depends on what you currently have selected.

this matters when you're moving between reports quickly. you're not locked into a specific setup per bookmark — you bring your current context with you.

default bookmarks

when you first join edgeful, 8 reports are automatically bookmarked for you as a starting point: gap fill, initial balance, inside bars, opening candle continuation, outside days, previous day's range, engulfing candles, and ICT opening retracement. you can add or remove any of them as your workflow develops.

how to add or remove bookmarks

to bookmark a report, click the bookmark icon at the top of any report page next to the title. to remove it, click the icon again — it'll disappear from your list immediately.

there's no limit on how many reports you can bookmark, so build out the list however works for your workflow.

watchlists

watchlists are the set of tickers you've told edgeful you care about. they appear in the right navigation bar and let you quickly switch between instruments with one click.

quick-switching tickers from the right nav

your watchlist in the right nav panel is a live switcher. click any ticker in your watchlist section and the current report reloads instantly for that asset, keeping everything else (session, date range, subreport) exactly as it was.

so if you're on the IB report for ES and want to check the same setup on NQ, you click NQ in the right nav and you're there in one click. no navigating back through menus, no losing your place.


managing your watchlist

you choose your initial tickers during onboarding, and you can update them any time at edgeful.com/watchlist. you can only have one watchlist, but there's no limit on how many tickers you can add to it.

the tickers that appear in the right nav panel are pulled from your main watchlist — if a ticker isn't in your watchlist, it won't show up here as a quick-switch option. the right nav updates to reflect your current list in real time.

the right nav panel

bookmarks and watchlists show up in the right nav panel on report pages. the panel has three sections: templates (saved report configurations), bookmarks (your go-to report pages), and watchlist (your tickers for quick-switching).

once you open the panel, it stays open as you navigate — so it becomes a persistent workspace alongside whatever report you're running.

common questions

do bookmarks remember my ticker and session? no — a bookmark saves the report, not your settings. when you click a bookmark, it opens that report with whatever ticker, session, and date range you currently have selected. this means the same bookmark gives you different data depending on your current context, which is useful once you understand it. if you want to save specific setups, use report templates instead.

can I group multiple reports into one bookmark? each bookmark is a quick toggle to a single report. if you need to access multiple reports in one workflow, keep them all bookmarked and switch between them from the right nav.

bookmarks vs. report selector — what's the difference? bookmarks don't hide other reports — they just give you shortcuts. you can still access every report through the report selector dropdown. bookmarks are a quick-access layer on top, not a filter.
