COT Report - Euro FX The Euro is in a confused state right now. Look at where the Euro is heading and what the commercials are doing. The short has been taking place since the reported date of 11th September 2011!

Commitment of Traders COT CFTC - EUR/USD - 16 August 2011

Commitments of Traders CFTC - EUR/USD Please not the above chart is the real COT report released by CFTC and it is not the COT Proxy. The EUR/USD have no proper direction in the last 2 weeks. Euro debt, US debt... both bad news hence even the commercials no have no idea what to do. The week prior to 16 August they are net long but last week they were net short. We see what the report release tomorrow will reveal for this week's positions. If the commercials for Euro are net short again this week, we can expect the EUR/USD go up.

Power of COT Report and COT Proxy

You can see one of the powerful potentials of the Commitments of Traders (COT) report. It tells us the real story behind every movement. Now what about stocks? The COT report is only released for future contracts. For stocks there is no reporting system other than what the insiders (substantial shareholders, directors, managers) have to report to the exchange for the trades they make. What if we can create some sort of a proxy COT Report for stocks? Yes we can! But before I go through that, let us see some more COT charts for the other futures instruments.
