How to Read the Daily Edge

The Daily Edge follows the same ten-section structure every day. This guide explains what each section contains, what every label means and how to use the report without confusing a research verdict with an entry condition or portfolio decision.

One report. One structure. One vocabulary.Every name used in this guide matches the Daily Edge exactly.
THE DAILY EDGE

One daily report, from market context to capital decision.

The Daily Edge brings together market regime, theme leadership, structural entry opportunities, catalysts, company research, both the long and short sides of the market, portfolio context and risk. It is designed to help readers move through the same decision sequence each day without treating an isolated signal as a complete trade decision.

Start here

Read the Dashboard

Get the current regime and the report’s highest-priority conclusions.

Then investigate

Follow the sections

See what is leading, where entry conditions exist and whether the company story supports them.

Finish here

Read Final Inference

Bring the regime, opportunities, risks, positions and next actions together.

Important: No single label is a complete instruction. A company can pass research but lack an entry condition. An entry can be actionable but unsuitable for the current portfolio. The report keeps those decisions separate.
THE OFFICIAL REPORT STRUCTURE

How to use each section

The section names below are the exact names used in every Daily Edge.

01

Dashboard

The compressed view of the entire issue.

What it contains

The current regime, key market readings, priority names, important signals and the day’s single takeaway.

What it means

It tells you what matters most before you enter the detailed sections.

How to use it

Read it first. Use it as the report map, not as a substitute for the research and portfolio sections behind each conclusion.

02

Market Regime

The environment in which every opportunity must operate.

What it contains

Price action, rates, volatility, breadth, participation, liquidity, policy and important event risk.

What it means

The regime states whether market conditions support risk-taking and how selective the desk should be.

How to use it

Use the regime to set expectations before reading individual stocks. Selective Risk-On supports long exposure, but only in the strongest companies and preferred entry locations.

03

Theme & Leadership Map

Where market leadership and capital are concentrated now.

What it contains

Leading and emerging themes, their strength, the companies participating and evidence of market confirmation.

What it means

A strong company has a better opportunity when its industry or theme is also attracting demand and capital.

How to use it

Prioritize candidates connected to confirmed leadership. An attractive ticker outside a strong or emerging theme requires a higher bar.

04

Structural Entry Windows

Stocks currently located at one or more defined TT101 entry windows.

What it contains

CoreWatch M Support, Leaders M Support, Trending M Support, favorable RR(Q), favorable RR(M), Y Support and signal convergence.

What it means

These lists identify price location and reward-to-risk opportunity. They do not by themselves confirm company quality.

How to use it

Use the lists to find location first, then continue to the research sections. When several windows converge on one ticker, the location deserves greater attention—not automatic entry.

05

Entry Engines + Trending Flow

Current TT Swing entry signals and changes in the Trending universe.

What it contains

Fresh and still-favorable RR(Q)/RR(M) signals plus New In, Direct New, Graduated and Out changes.

What it means

The entry engines identify favorable TT risk/reward. Trending Flow shows which stocks are entering, advancing through or leaving the momentum list.

How to use it

Separate entry signals from discovery signals. TT Good RR can create an entry window. Direct New starts research but is not a chase signal.

06

Short Side

Where bearish structure and company deterioration may be developing.

What it contains

Trending DOWN, M Resistance, short breadth and a check of whether weakness reflects a genuinely broken company story.

What it means

Technical weakness is stronger evidence when business momentum, FCF or the underlying thesis is also deteriorating.

How to use it

Use it both for selective short research and as a warning about risk elsewhere in the market. M Resistance alone is not a complete short thesis.

07

Single Research Queue

One deduplicated list of all companies requiring a story check.

What it contains

Candidates collected from Structural Entry Windows, Entry Engines + Trending Flow and other relevant report signals.

What it means

One stock may appear in several source lists, but it receives one consolidated research assessment.

How to use it

Use the verdict and evidence to decide whether the company story supports the signal. This is where entry candidates become researched candidates rather than repeated ticker mentions.

08

Single Stock Deep Dive

A focused examination of the issue’s most important company/setup combination.

What it contains

Theme, business momentum, revenue and cash generation, catalyst, competitive position, risks, entry location and portfolio context.

What it means

It shows why the opportunity matters now and whether recent weakness is a normal pullback or evidence of thesis deterioration.

How to use it

Read the evidence behind the conclusion—not just the verdict. The purpose is to answer whether this stock is actually worth buying at the identified location.

09

Positions + Capital Decision

Where researched opportunities meet the existing portfolio.

What it contains

Current Positions, the Actionable List and the Risk Board covering concentration, overlap, rates, events and other constraints.

What it means

A good company with a valid entry can still be a poor portfolio addition when it duplicates existing exposure or adds too much risk.

How to use it

Confirm whether a candidate is Actionable, then compare it with current positions and total portfolio risk before committing capital.

10

Final Inference

The complete desk conclusion for the issue.

What it contains

The final read on Market Regime, theme leadership, best-aligned names, favorable RR, discovery, support lists, Short Side and Positions.

What it means

It resolves the report into a concise view of what deserves attention, what requires patience and what currently presents risk.

How to use it

Read it after the full issue to confirm the decision hierarchy. When time is limited, pair it with the Dashboard and Positions + Capital Decision.

DAILY EDGE VOCABULARY

Every label used in the report

These definitions explain only the vocabulary that appears in the Daily Edge.

Research and capital labels

LabelMeaning
ACTIONABLEThe candidate has an accepted entry condition—normally M Support or favorable TT risk/reward—and has cleared the relevant research assessment. It is eligible for a capital decision, not an instruction to buy automatically.
POSITIONA currently held position shown for portfolio and risk context.
SELECTThe company and setup pass the relevant TT101 research filters. This is a research verdict, not an entry condition by itself.
SELECTIVEThe opportunity is credible but has an additional constraint such as cyclicality, valuation, event risk, weaker location, macro sensitivity or portfolio overlap.
WAIT ENTRYThe company or theme may be attractive, but an accepted TT101 entry condition is not currently present.
ACTIONABLE and SELECT answer different questions. SELECT asks whether the researched company/setup passes the quality assessment. ACTIONABLE asks whether an accepted entry condition is present and the candidate can proceed to a capital decision.

Universes and market lists

TermMeaning
CoreWatchTT101’s primary liquid growth universe, built around revenue and FCF growth with the required liquidity and movement filters.
LeadersHighly liquid institutional names tracked separately from CoreWatch.
Trending / Trending ALLStocks showing current market momentum and participation. It is used for discovery and flow analysis, not automatic entry.
Trending DOWNStocks meeting TT101’s bearish trend conditions. It is a short-research and risk-context list, not an automatic short instruction.

Entry windows and TT Swing

TermMeaning
M SupportA monthly structural support window used to identify an attractive price location.
Y SupportA rarer yearly structural support window used for longer-term location context.
M ResistanceA monthly structural resistance window used in the Short Side assessment. It requires company-level confirmation before becoming a stronger short thesis.
TT SwingTT101’s entry and position-management engine for directional state, favorable reward-to-risk, breakout/hold status and changes in the setup.
RR(Q)The TT Swing quarterly reward-to-risk reading.
RR(M)The TT Swing monthly reward-to-risk reading.
TT Good RRA TT Swing state in which potential reward relative to defined risk has turned favorable enough to deserve attention.
Fresh favorable RRA reward-to-risk condition that has newly turned favorable in the current issue.
Still favorable RRA favorable reward-to-risk condition that began earlier and remains active.
ConvergenceOne ticker appearing in more than one valid entry window or universe, increasing the importance of the location without making entry automatic.

Trending Flow

TermMeaning
New InA stock that has newly entered Trending ALL, regardless of the route it took into the list.
Direct NewA New In stock that entered Trending without first appearing in the monitored structural support window. It is a discovery and research trigger—not a chase signal.
GraduatedA stock that moved from an earlier support/discovery state into a more advanced trend state. Graduation is a change in location, not automatically an exit or a new entry.
OutA stock that has left Trending ALL. This is a flow change, not automatically a sell instruction.

Dashboard readings

TermMeaning
RegimeThe report’s conclusion about the market environment and the appropriate level of aggressiveness or defense.
QM+The number and percentage of Trending names with a positive quarterly/monthly structural state.
TS ActiveThe number and percentage of Trending names with an active TT Swing state.
RVRelative volume—a participation measure comparing current trading activity with its normal baseline.
TurnoverThe total traded dollar value represented by the monitored list, used as a measure of market activity and participation.
FCFFree cash flow: cash generated after the capital spending required to operate and grow the business.
