Stop guessing your entry date

A spread means buying one futures contract and selling another — for example two delivery months of the same commodity, or two related commodities — so you trade the price difference rather than the outright price. Because both legs react to the same market conditions, the difference often repeats a pattern across the calendar year. SeasonalQuant builds spreads of up to three contracts and measures how each one behaved in the same entry-to-exit window in past years.

Both. The screener lists pre-calculated candidates. The Builder lets you assemble your own spread from two to three contracts — the app checks that the legs are compatible and suggests valid combinations. Custom spreads are available on the Basic and Professional plans.

No tool can remove that risk entirely, but SeasonalQuant is built to make it visible. Window Optimizer scores every entry and exit date pair using weights you control, and a robustness score shows whether neighbouring windows give similar results — a lone lucky date does not. Historical Performance lets you inspect every individual year, not just the average, and you can compare 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30-year lookbacks.

Yes, for evaluating the workflow end to end. Free includes corn futures with 5 years of history, plus 3 Window Optimizer runs, 3 Trade Forecaster runs and 3 entry and take-profit analyses per month, and there are no ads. Other markets, custom spreads, a custom backtesting period and saved configurations need a paid plan.
