the edgeful report library — every report, what it measures, when to use it

summary: the full index of every edgeful report family, what each one measures, and when to pull it up. every entry links directly to the live report — family name goes to the standard variant, and each variant in the "variants:" line is its own clickable link. default ticker is ES; use the ticker picker on each report to switch.

quick answers to common navigation & data questions

how do I navigate between edgeful's 50+ reports?

the report dropdown in the left sidebar has a live search. type any keyword (gap, IB, range, breakout, asian, session, weekday, FOMC) and the list filters as you type. you can also browse the full index further down this page, grouped by category. for a deeper walkthrough, see the report selector guide.

how do I save a report so I can come back to it?

two options. bookmarks and watchlists let you pin specific reports or tickers you check daily. report templates save the full configuration (ticker, timeframe, session, customizations) so you can re-open the exact same view in one click.

how do I export report data to Excel or download raw numbers?

native CSV / Excel export isn't available today. the closest workflow right now is edgeful AI's "Analyze Reports" — it reads the report data and produces written analysis you can copy out. for programmatic access, API access is in progress; join the edgeful API waitlist to get access when it ships.

which IB or ORB variant should I use?

depends on what question you're answering. start with the decision guides: which IB report should I use and which ORB report should I use. the short version — "standard" gives you the base rate; "by weekday" tells you if today's day of week skews the pattern; "by size" tells you if IB or ORB size changes the odds; "by levels" shows where price tends to extend past the range.

how do I analyze multiple reports together?

two tools. edgeful AI's Analyze Reports stitches patterns across reports into one written analysis. the data table on each report lets you filter and inspect the raw samples behind the headline percentages.

what's the difference between "standard" and the "by-X" subreport variants?

"standard" is the baseline — the overall rate across the full sample. "by-X" variants slice that same pattern by one dimension: by weekday (which days skew the pattern), by size (how the size of the range or candle changes the odds), by close (how yesterday's close or the candle close affects follow-through), by levels (where price tends to extend past the initial range), and so on. use standard for the base rate, then layer the relevant "by-X" variant for today's specific setup.

how to use this page

edgeful has 51 report families spanning price action, gaps, sessions, breakouts, volume, volatility, news, and seasonality. each family has a "standard" variant plus "by-X" variants that slice the data by size, weekday, close, session, and more.

a few things to know before you dig in:

  • every report supports ticker, timeframe, and session customization. links below default to ES on futures — pick the ticker you actually trade once the report loads.

  • if you're trying to find a specific report fast, the report dropdown in the left sidebar has a search bar. type any keyword (gap, IB, range, breakout, asian, session) and the list filters live.

  • if you want to combine reports for a specific ticker + session + date range, use edgeful AI's "Analyze Reports" — it stitches the patterns together for you across the reports it reads.

chart patterns

engulfing candles
tracks how often a bullish or bearish engulfing candle plays out in the expected direction on the next candle, and where it fails. use this when an engulfing prints on your chart and you want the base rate before taking the signal. variants: standard, by daily candle, by RR, by size.

fair value gaps
ICT-style inefficiencies in price — tracks how often FVGs get filled, and in what window. use this when you trade FVGs as entry or target zones and want the historical fill rate. variants: standard, by size.

inside bars
price consolidating inside the prior candle's range — which side it breaks, how often, and the follow-through from there. timeframe is customizable, so the same report covers inside bars and inside days. use this when the market compresses and you need the odds of an upside vs. downside break. variants: standard, by weekday, by prev day size, by breakout, by open.

market open & close strategies

gap fill
overnight gap analysis — how often price returns to touch the prior session's close after opening above or below it. the "by size" variant lets you customize the fill threshold (e.g. 50% = halfway back into the gap), which is where most traders scale out. use this when there's a gap at the market open and you need the probability of a fill plus a level to take profits against. variants: standard, by size, by weekday, by close, by spike, by fill time, by prev candle.

initial balance breakout
the initial balance is the high and low of the first hour of the session. this report measures how price treats those levels for the rest of the day — single break (breaks one side, holds), double break (breaks both), or no break (price stays inside). "by close" lets you choose wick-through vs. candle-close confirmation. use this when you need a directional bias after the first hour of the session. variants: standard, by weekday, by size, by performance, by close, by rejection, by breakout, by levels, by retracement, by time, by double break.

opening candle continuation
how often the opening candle's direction continues through the close — if the first candle is green, does the day close green. candle size is customizable (5m, 15m, 30m, 45m, 60m, all anchored to the session open). use this when the first candle sets the tone and you want to know if the bias holds. variants: standard, by weekday, by size, by close.

opening stats
how often price opens above yesterday's high, between yesterday's high and low, or below yesterday's low. mostly used by swing traders sizing overnight risk. use this when you're holding a position into the close and want to know where the next day's open typically prints. variants: standard, by weekday.

opening range breakout
the opening range is the high and low of the first 15 minutes of the session. this report measures how price interacts with those levels — top break only, bottom break only, double break, or no break. "by weekday" shows which days skew toward which pattern. use this when you need a read on whether the market is in a single-break regime (one-sided continuation) or a double-break regime (reversal after the initial move). variants: standard, by weekday, by performance, by close, by rejection, by size, by levels, by retracement, by time.

outside days
tracks days that open above the previous day's high or below the previous day's low ("true gaps") and measures whether they close back inside the prior day's range or hold outside. use this when price opens outside yesterday's range and you need the probability of a reversion vs. a continuation. variants: standard, by weekday, by close, by spike, by size.

power hour breakout
power hour = the last hour of the session. this report measures how often a new high of day or new low of day is made during that last hour. use this when you're trading the close and want to know if a push beyond the session's existing extreme is likely. variants: standard, by weekday, by open.

power hour continuation
how often the trend going into the last hour continues through the close vs. reverses. use this when you want to know if the afternoon trend holds into the final bell. variants: standard, by weekday, by open.

performance & trend tracking

SMA performance
how price performs around simple moving averages — hit rates, crossovers, and follow-through. use this when SMAs are part of your setup and you want historical context on how the market respects them. variants: standard.

performance tracking

CPI performance
average performance around CPI release days — before, during, and after the print. use this when you're positioning around an upcoming CPI number and want historical context on how the market tends to digest the release. variants: standard.

FOMC performance
average performance around FOMC meeting days — initial reaction direction at the 2pm ET release and follow-through. "averaged results" gives you the blended behavior across all meetings; "individual days" lets you inspect one meeting at a time. use this when you're trading into or out of an FOMC decision. variants: standard, averaged results, individual days.

green & red days by weekday
green (up) vs. red (down) day frequency by weekday. use this when you're planning directional bias for a specific weekday. variants: standard.

green & red streaks
how often the market prints consecutive green or red days, and how long those streaks typically run before breaking. use this when you're considering a streak-break reversal or riding a continuation. variants: standard.

NFP performance
average performance around Non-Farm Payrolls days — initial reaction and follow-through into the close. use this when you're trading the first-Friday jobs print. variants: standard.

performance by weekday
overall weekday performance comparison. use this when you want a baseline read on the strongest and weakest trading days historically. variants: standard.

seasonality
seasonal bias across months and quarters — which periods have historically been green or red. use this when you're planning positioning for a specific part of the year. variants: standard.

seasonal

range & trend analysis

average consecutive bars
how many green or red candles tend to print in a row before the streak breaks. use this when you want to gauge how far a momentum run can extend before mean reversion kicks in. variants: standard.

CPI reaction
if the initial reaction candle at CPI (8:30am ET, 15m default) is green, how often does the NY session close green — and the reverse. use this when you're trading the CPI print and want to know how often the initial reaction carries through. variants: standard.

high & low by weekday
where the high and low of the day tend to form by day of week, and how often the high or low comes in during each window. use this when you're planning bias for a specific weekday. variants: standard, by close, by weekly candle.

intraday range window
how the intraday range builds hour by hour across the session. use this when you want to know how much of the day's range is typically already in before you enter. variants: standard, by weekday.

open to close range
distance from session open to session close — how much directional travel the market typically produces across a full session. use this when you're planning end-of-day entries or sizing an expected move from open to close. variants: standard.

opening range indicator
plots the opening range directly on your chart so you can see the key levels in real time instead of checking the report separately. use this when you want the opening range as a visual reference on the chart while you trade. variants: standard.

opening week range

previous days range
prior day's high, low, and how price interacts with them — broken down by how the prior day closed, by weekday, and by whether the prior day was an outside day. use this when you're planning trades around yesterday's high or low as support, resistance, or target. variants: standard, by weekday, by prev close, by outside close, by levels.

previous weeks range
prior week's high and low, and how often the current week breaks or holds those levels. use this when you're trading a weekly timeframe or using last week's extremes as reference levels. variants: standard, by open, by outside close.

ATR average true range
how often a day's range stays within or exceeds its average true range. variants slice it by weekday (which days expand vs. contract), by streak (consecutive within-ATR or above-ATR days), by extension (how far beyond ATR the day typically runs), and by range-to-ATR (today's current range as a percentage of ATR). use this when you're sizing stops and targets based on current volatility, or deciding whether today still has room to run. variants: standard, by weekday, by range to ATR by weekday, by streak, by extension.

session analysis

asian range breakout
measures the first 15-minute candle close outside the Asian session's high or low, and whether the daily candle closes in the same direction (follow-through) or the opposite (reversal). the "daily candle" reference uses the native product window — futures 6pm-5pm ET, crypto midnight-midnight, forex 5pm-5pm. use this when you need an overnight-driven bias for the rest of the daily candle. pairs with market session correlation for confluence. not available for stocks. variants: standard, by weekday, by close, by extension.

daily high & low by session
which session tends to print the day's high or low — NY, London, Asian, overnight. use this when you want to know when the day's extreme typically forms, so you don't chase it after it's in. variants: standard, by weekday, by candle.

ICT opening retracement
ICT theory that price retraces back to the midnight open — this report measures how often that happens, and in what timeframe. the "open" time is customizable. use this when you trade the ICT model and use the midnight open as a target or reference. variants: standard, by weekday, by size, by fill time.

market session breakout
how often one session breaks out of the prior session's range — e.g. how often NY breaks out of the London range. single break, double break, or no break, same framework as IB and ORB but applied across session boundaries. use this when you're trading across session transitions (London close into NY open, etc.). variants: standard, by weekday, by size, by levels.

if one session closes green or red, how often does the following session close green or red. compares Asian → London, London → NY, Asian → NY. use this when you want one session's close to telegraph direction into the next. variants: standard, by weekday, by size.

overnight continuation
how often an overnight session closing green or red carries into the regular session. applies to forex, crypto, and futures — not stocks (no true overnight session). use this when you're gauging whether the overnight direction has legs at the market open or fades. variants: standard, by weekday.

overnight range breakout
how often the overnight range (prior afternoon close to market open) gets broken during the regular session — both sides, one side, or neither. use this when you want to know whether today's session is likely to respect or sweep the overnight highs and lows. variants: standard, by weekday, by size.

previous session correlation
whether the prior session's close direction telegraphs the current session's close direction. similar framework to market session correlation but focused on the immediately preceding session as the tell. use this when you're looking for one-session-back confluence before taking a directional bias. variants: standard.

session range by weekday
how big each session typically runs on each day of the week. use this when you want to size the expected move for today's session before you plan entries and stops. variants: standard.

weekly open retracement
how often price comes back to touch the weekly open after moving away from it, and how long that takes. use this when you're using the weekly open as a level to fade or target. variants: standard, by weekday, by spike.

support & resistance levels

fibonacci levels
fib retracement and extension performance — how often price reaches each level. use this when fibs are part of your setup and you want historical hit rates at each level rather than treating them as pure technicals. variants: standard, by weekday.

pivot points
pivot level performance — how often price reaches or rejects at each pivot, and how the prior candle's close affects behavior at those levels. use this when pivots are part of your setup and you want hit rates rather than treating them as pure technicals. variants: standard, by weekday, by prev candle.

volume & range analysis

intraday volume & range
the relationship between volume and range during the session, hour by hour. use this when you're gauging whether a move has real participation behind it or it's drifting on thin volume. variants: standard, by weekday.

volume & range by weekday
volume and range averages side by side, by weekday. use this when you're sizing expected volume and expected range for a specific weekday together. variants: standard.

volume analysis

economic data volume
volume distribution around CPI, GDP, FOMC, and NFP — two days before, day of, day after. use this when you want to size expected participation for an upcoming data day. variants: standard.

market open volume indicator
opening period volume intensity — how today's opening volume compares to the historical distribution. use this when you want to gauge participation at the market open before sizing in. variants: standard.

session volume by weekday
volume distribution across sessions and weekdays. use this when you want to know when liquidity shows up — and when it doesn't. variants: standard.
