# AI Insights
> Data-driven analysis to improve your trading performance
AI Insights analyze your trading data and surface patterns that would be difficult to spot manually. Available on the **Pro plan** and during your **14-day free trial**.
## How AI Insights Work
Edge Analyzer's AI processes your trade history across all connected accounts. It looks for statistical patterns and presents findings in plain language with actionable recommendations.
The AI examines your trades, journal entries, and performance data to identify patterns, strengths, and areas for improvement.
## Types of Insights
### Session Performance
Analyzes your win rate and P\&L across the three major trading sessions — Asia, London, and New York — and identifies which session you perform best in.
> "Your New York session trades have a 34% higher win rate than Asia session trades. Consider focusing your trading on NY session."
### Hold Time Patterns
Identifies how trade duration affects your outcomes across four buckets: scalp (\<15 min), intraday (15–60 min), swing (1–8 hr), and position (8 hr+).
> "Your average hold time on losing trades is 4.2 minutes vs. 1.8 minutes on winners. Consider implementing tighter stop losses."
### Instrument Analysis
Finds which markets suit your trading style based on win rate, P\&L, and average hold time per instrument.
> "Your ES trades show consistent profitability with a 1.8 profit factor, while NQ trades are break-even at 1.0. ES appears to be your stronger instrument."
### Cross-Account Patterns
Looks for patterns across all your accounts and detects whether performance is consistent or heavily account-dependent.
> "Across all 5 accounts, your first trade of the day has a 65% win rate, while your fourth or later trades drop to 38%."
### Day of Week Performance
Breaks down your win rate and P\&L by weekday (Monday through Friday) and identifies your best and worst performing days.
> "Wednesday is your strongest trading day with a 62% win rate and \$1,240 average daily P\&L — nearly double your Monday performance."
### Time of Day Performance
Shows your performance by hour of the trading day (in Eastern Time, DST-aware) and highlights your most and least profitable windows.
> "Your 9–10 AM ET trades account for 40% of your total profits with a 67% win rate. Your 2–3 PM ET trades have a 38% win rate — consider avoiding that window."
### Streak Analysis
Tracks your win and loss streaks and detects tilt — a drop in win rate that occurs specifically after consecutive losses.
> "After 3 consecutive losses, your win rate drops from a 55% baseline to 32%. This tilt pattern suggests taking a break after back-to-back losses."
### Risk / Reward Analysis
Computes your profit factor, payoff ratio, and expectancy to show whether your strategy is mathematically sound.
> "Your profit factor is 1.6 with an average winner of $420 vs. average loser of $180. Your positive expectancy of \$68/trade means you're extracting edge consistently."
### Direction Bias
Compares your long vs. short performance and breaks down directional edge by instrument, so you know where your bias is working for — or against — you.
> "You win 61% of your long trades but only 44% of short trades. On NQ specifically, your short trades have never been net-profitable over 6 months."
### Overtrading Detection
Groups your trading days by how many trades you took and compares average daily P\&L across those groups to find your optimal daily trade count.
> "Your best days average 2–3 trades with a $580 avg P&L. On days with 6+ trades, your avg P&L drops to -$240. Consider setting a 3-trade daily limit."
### Monthly Performance
Shows your P\&L month by month and tracks how consistently you produce profitable months over time.
> "You've had 8 profitable months out of 10 total (80% consistency). Your worst month was -\$2,100 in January — primarily from 3 high-loss days."

## Insight Categories
What you're doing well and should continue
Recurring behaviors in your trading
Areas where small changes could improve results
## Insight Frequency
Insights are generated on a scheduled basis:
| Update Type | Timing |
| -------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| Daily insights | Nightly batch processing (2 AM UTC) |
| On-demand | Manual refresh (5-minute cooldown) |
Insights refresh as new trade data comes in, so recommendations stay current with your latest performance.
## Data Requirements
Each insight type requires a minimum amount of data before it activates:
| Insight | Minimum Requirement |
| -------------------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| All types | 5 trades in the group |
| Tilt detection (streak analysis) | 10 post-loss instances per bucket |
| Monthly performance | 2 distinct calendar months |
| Consistency score | 3 distinct calendar months |
| Overtrading detection | 5 trading days |
Insights with insufficient data are simply not shown — you'll never see a misleading pattern based on a handful of trades.
## Acting on Insights
Each insight card includes:
1. **The observation** — What the data shows
2. **The context** — Why this matters
3. **The recommendation** — A specific action to take
## Improving Your Insights
The more data you provide, the better your insights become:
### Trade More
More trades = more data = more accurate pattern detection. Insights improve significantly after 50+ trades.
### Journal Consistently
Link journal entries to trades and tag your setups and emotions. This gives the AI additional context for analysis.
### Use the Playbook
Tag trades with your playbook setups. The AI can then tell you which setups actually perform best based on data, not intuition.
### Connect All Accounts
Connect all your trading accounts so the AI can find cross-account patterns and provide holistic recommendations.
## Privacy
Only you can see your AI insights. If you share with a mentor, they can see the same insights you see.
No. Your trading data is only used to generate your personal insights. It is never used to train public AI models or shared with other users.
AI insights are part of the Pro plan. If you prefer not to see them, you can downgrade to the Basic plan.
