Why a trader cares
Different trades require different evidence. A prompt-crude question should not be forced into the same layout as an LNG-weather question.
PlatformDashboard Builder
Custom workflowsLive
Build around the market question—not a fixed vendor layout.
The builder uses the same component registry as the primary dashboards, so a saved workspace can combine price, physical, positioning, model, and thesis evidence.
Question answered
Which evidence should stay together for the decision I am monitoring?
Built for more than one level of market experience
Start simple. Keep the professional context.
Every screen preserves the instrument, period, unit, source, and limitation while explaining why the evidence matters.
Start here01
Identify the observation before interpreting it.
Read the instrument, unit, timestamp, period, and source first. A weekly stock estimate and a five-minute futures quote answer different questions.
Desk read02
Compare level, change, and historical context.
The current value matters less without its direction of travel, seasonal baseline, related markets, and the catalyst that moved expectations.
Professional use03
Demand cross-source confirmation and preserve uncertainty.
Treat every dataset as evidence with a release lag, methodology, revision risk, and known blind spots. The workflow should be reproducible after the fact.
Component guide
What each component means—and how a desk reads it.
Definitions stay plain enough to learn from, while the desk read preserves the mechanism, cadence, and source a professional user expects.
Component registry
In plain English
The builder exposes the same maintained cards and charts used in Enerlytics' primary dashboards.
Professional read
A component is a live view with its own query, methodology, empty state, and entitlement—not a decorative placeholder.
- Cadence
- Updates with the component's underlying source
- Source
- Enerlytics dashboard registry
Market templates
In plain English
Starting layouts group evidence for crude, natural gas, freight, and cross-market questions.
Professional read
Templates reduce setup time while leaving the user responsible for removing evidence that does not answer the current question.
- Cadence
- Versioned with product releases
- Source
- Enerlytics workflow templates
Persistent layout
In plain English
Card selection, sizing, order, filters, and dashboard identity are saved for later sessions.
Professional read
Persistence turns a one-off screen into a repeatable monitoring process and warns before unsaved edits are abandoned.
- Cadence
- Saved on user action
- Source
- Account-scoped dashboard configuration
Shared date and market context
In plain English
Compatible components can be aligned to the same commodity, date range, or observation window.
Professional read
Alignment reduces accidental comparisons between a live quote, a weekly release, and a differently dated physical estimate.
- Cadence
- Interactive
- Source
- Component-level metadata
What data it uses
The evidence underneath the screen.
- Market Pulse and candle charts
- WTI, Brent, and natural-gas curve history
- EIA, Cushing, storage, and balance cards
- Freight, AIS, LNG shipping, and CFTC
- Model Signal and Market Thesis components
How Enerlytics interprets it
Method before conclusion.
- 01
Preserves each component’s own methodology
- 02
Supports market-specific layouts and filters
- 03
Keeps saved dashboards connected to live data rather than screenshots
How it connects
Evidence moves through a workflow.
- 01Choose a market question
- 02Add relevant evidence
- 03Arrange the workflow
- 04Save
- 05Revisit as conditions change
What not to infer
Adding more cards does not automatically improve a decision. The strongest dashboard is selective and tied to a clear question.
Worked market workflow
Build around one decision question
A useful custom dashboard is a deliberate evidence set, not the maximum number of available cards.
- 1
Name the question
For example: Is prompt WTI tightness broadening into the physical market?
- 2
Choose evidence
Add price, M1-M2, Cushing, refinery runs, freight, and crude-on-water—not unrelated gas cards.
- 3
Order the logic
Place observation first, confirmation second, and monitoring or invalidation last.
- 4
Save and revisit
Return to the same layout as each source updates.
Methodology and limitations
Trust comes from showing the seams.
One registry, consistent semantics
Builder components reuse the product's existing source labels, freshness rules, units, and explanations so a saved dashboard does not invent a second interpretation layer.
Primary references
Enerlytics links the underlying methodology so customers can distinguish a product interpretation from the source definition.

A real Enerlytics workflow—not a conceptual mockup.
Weekly research, recaps, and video explainers
See the evidence used in a real market conversation.
Enerlytics publishes weekly market recaps, component explainers, and thesis walkthroughs. For Dashboard Builder, the recurring desk question is: Which compact dashboard best recreates the evidence sequence used in this week's market recap?
Weekly market notes →Written recaps tied to the same evidence workflow.Public signal reviews →Current states with accountability and limitations.Video recaps on X →Short market recaps, chart walkthroughs, and thesis updates.Explainers on Threads →Component education and the reasoning behind each market read.
