Futures-specific insights

Built around how futures traders actually think

Time-of-day performance

Most futures traders have dramatically different edge at the open than in the afternoon or overnight. SuperTrader shows your results for every hour you trade — and whether you should be trading the overnight hours at all.

Contract-level analysis

Do you trade ES better than NQ? CL better than GC? SuperTrader breaks your win rate and avg P&L by individual contract so you can specialize in your strongest market.

Contract-accurate P&L

SuperTrader applies each contract's multiplier — $12.50 per ES tick, $5.00 per NQ tick, $1.25 per MES tick — so your dollar P&L is right on every contract. 1 ES tick ≠ 1 NQ tick. The journal handles the math.

Your costliest hour

The first hour after the open is very different from midday. Session Fade (Pro) finds the entry hour where your trades lose the most on average, and Analytics names your best entry window.

Time-of-day deep dive

Your edge isn't uniform across the session

The first hour after the open and the midday chop are completely different trading environments. SuperTrader shows your P&L and win rate for every hour you trade so you can trade your best hours — and stop trading the ones that cost you money.

  • Average P&L and win rate by hour of entry
  • Average P&L by day of week (Mon–Fri)
  • Session Fade (Pro): your most costly entry hour
  • Best and worst win/loss streaks

Who it's for

Built for serious futures traders

ES and NQ day traders

The bread-and-butter of retail futures trading. SuperTrader shows your results hour by hour, your ORB vs fade setups, and whether you're trading the midday chop when you shouldn't be.
