Given



CREATE TABLE transactions
(
transacted_at TIMESTAMP
);

CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS index_transactions_on_transacted_at
ON transactions (transacted_at);


Then this doesn't use the index:



SELECT * FROM transactions
WHERE tsrange('2018-01-01', NULL) @> transacted_at;


But this does:



SELECT * FROM transactions
WHERE transacted_at > '2018-02-01'


I realize that I can simply deconstruct the range and do the comparison that works, but I'd like to know how I can use ranges natively with an index on the transactions table.



What am I missing?
