The read
How the numbers workThe 6-month COT Index is between 20 and 80: normal positioning. Trend mode: follow the direction of speculator flow. The score applies as normal.
Specs lean bullish, in the upper half of their 6 months range (80/100), and rising. This is the bullish trend zone. 6-month (80) and 3-year (68) agree: today's positioning looks the same short- and long-term.
Over the last 4 weeks speculators have been meaningfully adding to the bullish side.
Speculators opened new long positions this week: new money betting the currency will rise. The rise in longs was at least as big as any cut in shorts. Longs +19.5K, shorts −13.4K. Open interest rose too: new money confirms it. The strongest bullish kind of week. It adds +1 to the conviction score. Better still if open interest rose too.
52 weeks shown. Drag to pan; charts move together.
Quarterly expiry week: positions roll to the next contract, so open interest and the week's change can be distorted.
Price vs positioningPrice flat.Specs have been buying, but price has barely moved: CAD −0.33% over 4 weeks. Not confirmed either way yet.
Largest gap first.
