See Where Smart Money is Buying

MarketTriage is a dashboard that shows you what big institutions — hedge funds, company insiders, and institutional investors — are doing with their money, based on official government filings they are required to submit. We classify every asset into a simple health status so you can see at a glance what is heating up, what is cooling down, and what needs attention.

No. The dashboard is designed for beginners. Every asset gets a simple color-coded status — green for observation, blue for clearance, orange for caution — and a plain-English explanation of what is happening. You do not need to know any technical jargon to get started.

The COT report is a weekly CFTC publication breaking down futures positions by trader type: Commercials (hedgers), Hedge Funds, and Retail Speculators. Commercials are consistently right at market turning points. MarketTriage monitors their positioning extremes and delivers plain-language severity alerts.

Yes—the COT report reflects data from the previous Tuesday. The 3-day lag is irrelevant because institutional positioning shifts unfold over weeks, not hours. MarketTriage tracks the tide of money flow, not intraday noise.

Yes, with caveats. The COT edge is strongest in physical commodity markets—Gold, Oil, Corn—where real hedging activity exists. For Bitcoin and Crypto futures, the edge is smaller due to different trader composition. MarketTriage applies adjusted thresholds for crypto markets.

MarketTriage monitors Commercial and Speculator positioning against 3- and 5-year historical baselines. When a statistical extreme is reached, the system issues a severity alert: Neutral, Watch, Alert, or Critical. You get the clinical diagnosis—the data does the math.

Commercials are producers, miners, and banks hedging real physical inventory. They trade based on supply and demand fundamentals, not speculation. At positioning extremes, Commercials have the strongest long-term predictive track record of any futures market participant group.
