Next issue lands Sunday afternoon, before Globex reopens.
A sample Sunday issue. Numbers are illustrative.
Built for the hour before the open
Sunday is when you set up the week. Sunday Gap gives you the whole board in one place, so you can spend that time on your plan instead of on fifteen browser tabs.
How the week closed
Friday settles and weekly change for nine of the most-traded contracts: ES, NQ, YM, RTY, CL, GC, ZN, 6E and CME bitcoin.
What's coming
The week's economic releases and Fed events in Central time, with the markets each one tends to move. High-impact releases are flagged.
What matters Sunday night
Weekend headlines that could gap futures at the reopen, and the three things worth knowing before you place an order.

How each issue is made
Numbers from the tape
Closes, ranges and levels are computed in code from public exchange price data, and positioning comes straight from the CFTC's weekly report.
Words with a guardrail
Commentary is drafted with AI from that data and the week's calendar. It can only cite the numbers we calculated, and every issue is previewed before it sends.
No calls, no hype
We describe conditions and scenarios. We never tell you to buy or sell, and we never sell signals. Your trades are your own.
Questions
When does the Sunday issue arrive?
At 2:00 PM Central in winter and 3:00 PM Central during daylight time. Either way, that's at least two hours before CME Globex reopens at 5:00 PM CT.
Which markets do you cover?
E-mini S&P 500 (ES), E-mini Nasdaq-100 (NQ), E-mini Dow (YM), E-mini Russell 2000 (RTY), WTI crude (CL), gold (GC), 10-year T-note (ZN), euro FX (6E) and CME bitcoin (BTC). Micro contracts track the same prices, so the levels apply to MES, MNQ and the rest too.
Is this trading advice?
No. Sunday Gap is general commentary written for everyone on the list. It doesn't know your account, your risk tolerance or your positions, and it never tells you to buy or sell.
How does the Pro trial work?
You get seven days of Pro free. Your card is charged when the trial ends unless you cancel before then, which you can do from Manage billing in any email.
How do I cancel Pro?
Click Manage billing at the bottom of any Pro email, or use the billing page. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you've paid for, and you drop back to the free Sunday issue.
