Not good for day trading or scalping. Too delayed.
I placed trades using Edgefinder's Top Setups as a guide on whether the instrument is very bearish or very bullish. Edgefinder shows Gold as very bullish score around +11, the price was USD 3333.00, after 13 hours, Top Setup still shows Gold as very bullish even if the price already dropped USD 47 per ounce to USD 3286. Then later, upon manual refresh, Gold was suddenly downgraded to +5, Bullish.
I asked this before during one of the live stream, whether Edgefinder is what trading style, is it for Investors, Swing Traders, Day Traders or Scalpers, but Nick just ignored the question, so we're not sure if we are buying the right tool for our trading needs, which is day trading and scalping.
The problem with Edgefinder, it doesn't seem to refresh automatically, you have to refresh manually to get it updated, another thing is, it doesn't have a timestamp what date and time the data was last updated. We cannot tell if bias we are seeing in Top Setup is updated or stale.
If they don't make Edgefinder update itself in realtime, and show important details as to when it was updated, then its USELESS for day trading or scalping, it maybe ok for investors, who can get information from news feeds, and get some bias from Edgefinder even if its delayed, where once a day updates will suffice.

Hi, thank you for your honest feedback and for taking the time to share your experience using the EdgeFinder.
First and foremost, it's important to clarify that the EdgeFinder is not a signal service. A bullish score doesn’t mean you should immediately buy. Our analysts use the tool as a supportive resource—comparing the data-driven bias with their own technical setups before entering trades. For example, Nick is currently in a long position on Gold—one of his best trades this year—thanks in part to the bullish EdgeFinder bias, but just as importantly, because of how it aligned with his technical analysis.
As for trading style, the EdgeFinder is designed to support both swing traders and shorter-term traders. It incorporates a mix of sentiment data (like COT and retail positioning), fundamental analysis, and economic data. The directional bias it generates isn’t tied to a specific timeframe—it’s simply based on the most recent data until that data changes. We have traders of all styles, including day traders, who find the tool useful when paired with their own strategies. You can find this info on our checkout and FAQ pages for full transparency.
On the data side, the EdgeFinder updates automatically on a scheduled basis—price data every 15 minutes, retail sentiment every 30, and economic data every few hours. COT data updates weekly. If the tool is left open for an extended period, a manual refresh may be needed to display the most recent updates, but you never need to press a button to load data when launching the tool.
Timestamps showing the last update are clearly displayed in the top right corner of each data page, and there’s also a dedicated “Data Updates & Sources” page inside the tool that outlines the full update schedule.
We really appreciate your feedback, and we hope this clears things up.

EdgeFinder is Expensive, But Not Very Helpful
The EdgeFinder tool is not that great for currency traders. It's cute, it's colorful, and it has a lot of information. Nick relies heavily on the COT (Commitment of Traders) data. It's a lagging indicator. The info is from Tuesday and it's not released to the public until 3:30pm EST on Friday. Basically when the market is dead and about to close. It tells you what the large speculators already did, as if we didn't see it on the charts already.
Also, there have have been way too many instances over the last year or so since I've owned this product, where a pair will show in the top setups page as "Very Bullish" or "Very Bearish", yet price is trending aggressively in the opposite direction, blowing through key levels. How is a wrong reading helping traders? If you find the answer, please let me know.
I'm hopeful it'll get better, but I won't hang my hat on this. Good luck to all the traders, new and old, and don't think you need a fancy, expensive, lagging tool to give you an edge on trading.

Hi, thank you for your thoughtful feedback and for being a longtime user of the EdgeFinder.
You're right about COT data—it’s released weekly by the CFTC every Friday based on Tuesday’s positions, and there’s no way for anyone to access it earlier. While it's not meant for short-term timing, it remains a valuable tool for understanding institutional positioning, which many advanced traders still use as part of their overall analysis.
Regarding your point about the Top Setups page showing a strong bias while price moves the other way: that’s a fair concern, and it’s important to clarify that the EdgeFinder does not predict price action. It simply analyzes data (economic trends, sentiment, positioning, etc.) and generates a directional bias based on how those factors have historically impacted markets. That bias is one piece of the puzzle—not a guarantee.
Markets can shift for reasons no tool can fully account for—unexpected news, geopolitical events, or technical levels breaking down. That’s why we always encourage traders to use the EdgeFinder alongside their own technical analysis and risk management. For example, our analysts often pass on trades even when the EdgeFinder shows a strong bias, if the technicals don’t confirm the idea.
We truly appreciate your input—it helps us continue improving the tool. Wishing you the best in your trading journey.
