what the volume and range by weekday report measures

the volume and range by weekday report calculates average volume, price range, and percentage range statistics for each weekday using historical OHLC data. it processes high, low, volume, and date data to compute daily ranges and percentage ranges, then aggregates by weekday.

the report is available for futures, stocks, ETFs, forex, and crypto. you can filter by ticker, session (NY, London, Asian, full globex, or custom), and lookback period (1 month to 5+ years).

how the calculation works

the volume and range by weekday report aggregates daily activity by weekday.

• the report calculates the daily volume and daily range for every session day across the lookback period
• it groups results by weekday (monday through friday)
• averages are calculated per weekday for both metrics
• comparing weekdays reveals which days produce expanded vs compressed activity
• this gives you a statistical view of which weekdays offer the most opportunity on a given ticker

how traders use volume and range by weekday data

• focusing trading on weekdays with historically expanded volume and range
• reducing size or sitting out on historically compressed weekdays
• ticker-specific calibration since patterns differ heavily by instrument
• pairing with green/red days by weekday for directional bias on top of activity
• risk management by knowing when chop is statistically more likely

the data doesn't tell you to trade. the volume and range by weekday report tells you the historical performance of the setup in front of you. what you do with that information is your decision.

results require customization, time, and effort. the numbers change depending on your ticker, session, and lookback period. always check the data for your specific conditions.
