# Daily Recap

> The end-of-day arc, what mattered, the cross-asset verdict, and tomorrow's setup.

The **Daily Recap** is auramarkets' single most useful page if you missed the trading session. It's the AI-written summary layered on top of the day's [quant score](/concepts/quant-score) arc.

Generated automatically at **4:30 PM ET on weekdays**, then archived. You can scroll back through every recap with the date selector at the top.

## How to open it

* From [Macro](https://auramarkets.io/macro): click **Daily Recap** in the left rail.
* Or jump to it from the [Market Pulse](/macro/market-pulse) sidebar — the recap badge appears once it's published.

## The header

* **Day type label** — Trending Up/Down, Reversal (Recovery/Failed), Range-Bound, Breakout, or Mixed. Color-coded. → [What each label means](/concepts/day-type)
* **Score and sentiment word** — e.g., "+18 / cautious" or "−45 / risk-off"
* **Title** — a one-line characterization of the day, written by the AI (e.g., *"Risk-On Breadth Masks Bond Market's Recession Warning"*)

## The arc bar

Right under the header — the gradient bar showing how the [quant score](/concepts/quant-score) moved through the session. Color encodes risk-on/off at each moment.

## The sections

The recap is forensic: everything it asserts is measured, not remembered. Each one follows the same structure, in this order:

| Section                  | What's in it                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| ------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **The Day's Arc**        | The session as a story: how it opened, where it inflected, how it closed. The "what happened" narrative.                                                                                                        |
| **Regime Path (engine)** | The day as the [regime engine](/macro/market-pulse#the-regime-badge) saw it — intraday state pills showing every flip (e.g., RANGE-BOUND → ROTATIONAL → RISK OFF) and when it happened. Computed, not narrated. |
| **Signal vs Noise**      | Separates **signal** from **noise** by *measuring each event's actual tape reaction* — the events that got headlines but moved nothing get called out as noise.                                                 |
| **Cross-Asset Check**    | What credit, vol, gold, FX, and rates were saying — specifically **which engine components dissented** from the equity read.                                                                                    |
| **Structural Shifts**    | Concentration, factor rotations, sector dispersion, breadth health.                                                                                                                                             |
| **Equity Internals**     | [Breadth](/concepts/breadth), factor excess, sector leadership, vol term structure detail.                                                                                                                      |
| **The Score Story**      | A walk-through of how the quant score itself moved — peaks, troughs, what they coincided with.                                                                                                                  |
| **Tomorrow's Setup**     | Bias, catalysts, regime-shift triggers, historical edge from similar days — and key levels **cited from computed numbers** (52-week high/low, 50-day, 200-day, prior day's range), never invented.              |
| **Bottom Line**          | One-paragraph summary if you're skimming.                                                                                                                                                                       |

## How it's generated

* A **deterministic engine** ([quant score](/concepts/quant-score), the [regime engine](/macro/market-pulse#the-regime-badge)'s intraday path, breadth, factor excess, divergences, per-event tape reactions) produces the structured features.
* **Claude** writes the prose by reading those features plus the day's quant timeline, the Pulse events, and historical context for similar days.
* The AI never invents numbers — it only narrates the structured data.

## Browsing past recaps

The date selector at the top lets you scroll backward through every archived recap. Useful for:

* **Reviewing your trades** — open the recap from the day you took a position
* **Pattern recognition** — read several "Reversal (Failed)" days in a row to internalize what they look like
* **Learning the vocabulary** — every recap uses the same terms; reading 5–10 will make the [Concepts](/concepts/quant-score) glossary click
