Today's Focus
Daily shortlist of markets where primary factors — especially COT and seasonality — are directional.
What it is
Today’s Focus is PositionAlpha’s ranked shortlist of assets where primary confluence factors are active. An asset is featured when COT and/or seasonality lean bullish or bearish. Tiers describe whether those primaries agree (aligned), only one is active (single), or they conflict (mixed).
Why it matters
Traders face dozens of charts. A transparent shortlist focused on positioning and seasonal context saves time without claiming predictive certainty. It is a research queue, not a trade blast.
How traders use it
Scan featured cards on the public hub or dashboard, open the market overview, read related Learn guides, then decide whether the idea fits your rules. Skip mixed-tier names if you only trade agreement between factors. Re-check after new COT releases.
Example
Three commodities appear featured: two aligned bullish, one mixed. You research the aligned names first and ignore the mixed name until seasonality and COT stop fighting.
Deeper context
Featured status can change when seasonal windows roll or when a new COT week posts. Anonymous visitors see a teaser; signed-in users get richer condition detail for entitled assets. Always read the meta timestamps (COT as-of, tendency day) on the confluence response.
