HOW TO USE THIS REPORT

A quick walkthrough of every feature in your nightly Outcome Radar™ report
Step 1 of 8

Welcome to Outcome Radar

Every night, Outcome Radar™ scans the entire universe of Defined Outcome ETFs and surfaces the ones that matter most.

Three fund providers are tracked and color-coded throughout:

Innovator™ First Trust™ AllianzIM™

Step 2 of 8

The Stats Bar & Market Data

Five key numbers at the top give you an instant pulse check. Scan these first every time you open the report.

Near Entry tells you how many ETFs are near their starting price — fund has reset or is back to its original starting point which could provide more favorable risk/reward characteristics. Near Cap flags funds hitting their ceiling.

Below that, T-Bill yields are your risk-free benchmark, and Implied Volatility shows conditions for each tracked index.

Pro Tip: A higher "Near Entry" count could provide more compelling longer term or tactical opportunities!

Filters & Search Tools

The toolbar gives you powerful filtering. All filters work in combination to narrow results.

Provider — Toggle Innovator™, First Trust™, or AllianzIM™ on/off.

Status — Target Range, Extended Range, Near Entry, Accel Zone, Near Cap.

Period — Quarterly, Semi-Annual, Annual, or 2-Year.

Plus ticker search and Data Heavy / Lite toggle.

Pro Tip #1: If an ETF is not generating a signal, it will still show up as Mid-Period in the All Others collapsed section at the bottom of each tab — every ticker is searchable.
Pro Tip #2: Data Lite removes a lot of the statistics and when used with the Target and Extended Ranges allows for a much quicker analysis.

The Near Entry Table

The most actionable section. ETFs here are near their starting price — giving you full cap upside with full buffer protection.

Click any column header to sort. Sorting by closest to Target Range and then comparing Cap Yield and Asymmetry together is the fastest way to find top opportunities.

Look for: High cap yield, high probability, and intact buffers (low DBB).

How to Use This Report
Intelligence Dashboard
The collapsible dashboard at the top provides a quick snapshot of the most important intelligence. Click the Intelligence Dashboard bar to expand or collapse it. Every ticker and volume box in the dashboard is clickable — click it and the report automatically switches tabs, expands the right section, and scrolls to that ETF’s row (which briefly flashes amber so you can see where you landed).

Top 10 Widget (Dropdown Switcher) — A single box that holds three different “Top 10” views. Use the dropdown in the widget header to switch between them:
  • Closest to Target Range (default) — The 10 ETFs trading closest to their ideal entry band. An ETF showing In Range is currently inside the optimal entry zone for its period type (annual, 6-month, or quarterly). Amber means within 0.25% of the band; red is further away. Ranked by absolute distance from the band.
  • Asymmetry Ratio — Measures how much upside vs. downside a fund offers on a standardized ±10% index move from today. A ratio of 5x means the fund gains 5x more than it loses. Higher is better. Funds with fewer than 30 days remaining or non-standard structures are excluded.
  • Top Cap Yield — The 10 ETFs with the highest annualized remaining cap. Cap Yield normalizes different time horizons so a fund with 60 days left can be compared to one with 300 days left. Grade reflects overall attractiveness.

Upcoming Resets — ETFs resetting within the next 8 days. At reset the fund starts a new outcome period with a fresh cap and buffer — an important decision point for holders.

Volume Traded (Treemap) — The 10 most actively traded ETFs from the prior session, sized by volume. Click any box to jump directly to that ETF’s row.

Implied Volatility Chart — A 1-year history of VIX (S&P 500), VXN (Nasdaq), and RVX (Russell 2000) implied volatility. Current values are calculated using options volatility models at the end of the day. Higher IV means higher reset caps ahead — useful context for timing new positions.
Tab Navigation
The report is organized into 8 tabs by buffer structure: 100% Buffer, Standard 9%, Buffer 10-15%, Buffer 20%+, Uncapped, Dual Direction, 3&6 Month Buffers, and Specialty (accelerated 2x/3x products). Click a tab to see only the ETFs in that category.
Expand Sections That Interest You
Within each tab, ETFs are grouped into Near Entry (closest to optimal entry point), Near Cap (approaching ceiling — time to consider rolling), and All Others (the complete universe for that buffer type). Click the section header to expand or collapse it. Near Cap sections start open because they are time-sensitive alerts; All Others starts collapsed.
Roll Option Chips (on Near Cap ETFs)
When an ETF is approaching its cap, the system automatically scans the same tab’s Near Entry list for the best replacement and shows a 🔄 Roll → TICKER chip right under the ticker symbol.

• Green chip — Exact match: same underlying index and same buffer %, freshly reset. Hover / tap for “Same buffer & index, just reset”.
• Amber chip with ∼ — Partial match: same underlying index, different buffer. Hover / tap shows which buffer the candidate has (e.g., “10% buf”).
• No chip — No suitable replacement exists in the current report.

Click the chip to jump directly to that suggested ETF’s row, so you can compare side-by-side before rolling.
Sort to Find What Matters
Click any column header on desktop to sort that section. On mobile, use the sort bar below each table. Try sorting Near Entry by Distance from Target Range to see which ETFs are closest to the ideal starting point, or by Cap Yield for the highest annualized return potential, or by Days to see what resets soonest.
Use Filters to Narrow Down
The provider, period, and status chips at the top let you isolate specific fund families, time horizons, or signal types. The ticker search box lets you jump straight to a specific ETF regardless of tab.
View Details & Payoff Curves
Click "View" on any ETF row to open a side panel with the full payoff curve, key metrics, and position visualization. This shows you exactly where the ETF sits within its outcome period.
Toggle Data Lite Mode
The Data Heavy / Data Lite toggle at the top right simplifies the view by hiding less critical columns. Useful for a quick scan on mobile.
Section Guide
Near Entry — ETFs trading closest to their ideal starting band (per-period optimal range), with maximum cap and buffer intact. Sorted by distance from target range.

Near Cap — ETFs nearing their maximum return. Upside is limited; each entry shows a Roll Option chip with a suggested replacement ETF.

Acceleration Zone — Leveraged ETFs (2x/3x) with multiplied upside. Position relative to the trigger threshold is key.

Dual Direction — ETFs that participate in both up and down index moves. Symmetry analysis matters here.

All Others — The rest of the ETF universe for that tab’s buffer type. Collapsed by default — expand to see every fund with basic metrics.

~15% current level of downside protection by the end of the outcome period.
Days
Calendar days left until the outcome period resets. At reset, the fund starts a new cap and buffer cycle.
DBB (Downside Before Buffer)
The amount of fund loss before the buffer starts.
Cap Yield (Cap Yld)
The remaining cap expressed as an annualized return. Lets you compare ETFs with different time horizons on equal footing.
Probability (Prob.)
Model-estimated likelihood that the index will reach the cap level by expiration. Based on current implied volatility and time remaining.
Target Range
The fund is trading closest to its starting price minus the fund fee — the ideal entry zone where you get the most cap and the most buffer.
Extended Range
Still near the starting price but slightly outside the tightest zone. Cap and buffer are still largely intact.
Near Cap
The fund is at or near its maximum return for the period. Little upside remains, but downside risk is still present.
Acceleration Zone
Leveraged ETFs (2x or 3x) that multiply index gains above a threshold. Position matters — being near the start or threshold changes the risk/reward.
% Cap Used / % Buffer Used
How much of the original cap or buffer has already been consumed by index movement since the period started.
