Built by a trader who was tired of spreadsheets.
COT Edge started with a simple frustration: the most useful positioning data in markets is free and public, and almost nobody uses it, because reading it is a nightmare.
The problem
Every Friday, the CFTC publishes the Commitment of Traders report, a detailed look at how large speculators are positioned across futures markets. It is genuinely valuable data. It is also a wall of raw numbers, buried in government tables, with no context for whether a position is normal or stretched to an extreme.
I traded with this data myself. And every week I did the same thing: export the numbers, build my own spreadsheet, calculate where positioning sat relative to history, and try to make sense of it. It worked, but it took real time, every single week, just to answer one question: where is the crowd right now, and is it at an extreme?
The fix
So I built the tool I wished existed. COT Edge pulls the live CFTC data automatically every week and turns it into something you can read in seconds: clean percentile rankings that instantly show whether positioning is at a historical extreme, across 16 instruments, with years of context behind every number.
No spreadsheets. No exporting. No manual math. Just open it and see where the big money stands.
What I believe
Honesty over hype
The data is the data. COT Edge shows you positioning, not signals, not promises, and never fabricated numbers. It is a tool for thinking, not a crystal ball.
Context beats noise
A raw number means nothing on its own. The whole point of COT Edge is context, percentiles that tell you whether something is normal or extreme.
Built by someone who uses it
This is not a product spun up by a faceless company. It is made by a trader who relies on the same tool every week. If it is not useful, it does not ship.
Where it's going
COT Edge is independent and actively developed. It is early, and it is honest about that, which is also why there is a real free tier and a 30-day money-back guarantee. The goal is simple: be the fastest, clearest way to read institutional positioning, for traders who would rather analyse than dig through tables.
