How to read COT Report for Gold and
Other Forex Pairs  

The Commitments of Traders (COT) reports can sometimes give
traders a good idea of ​​future significant movements in the market. The CFTC
requires large speculators and commercial traders or hedges to report their net
positions twice a month.

In general, the big speculator category represents fund
traders and professional traders who hold large positions. Commercial traders
also report their net positions to the CFTC. The number of “non-reportable”
positions is calculated by subtracting the number of large speculative and
trading positions from the total open interest. It is widely believed that this
group of traders are small speculators and hedgers who do not hold positions
large enough to report to the CFTC.

COT data for the chart can be found at
https://www.barchart.com/futures/commitment-of-traders .

 

COT data in the Gold chart | How to read COT Report

The results of the COT report can be used as a tool to give
traders a better understanding of the psychology of the marketplace, the net
position of the commercials in the market and the net position of the major
traders. Large traders (funds) are usually trend followers and will add or
liquidate their positions depending on the technical action of the market since
the report release date.

There are many different ways to analyze the reports, but we
believe that for the most part, the major traders’ net position and the
‘position change’ over a two-week period are the most important numbers to
watch. Remember that the small trader’s net position is typically subject to
either long liquidation or short coverage when the market begins to move
against them.

 

As a result, a classic bullish setup for a given market
would be when large traders are net long and small traders are net short. The
market is in a weakened bullish setup “when” the two-week trend of the large
trader’s position is bearish, or in other words, when the funds are about to
unwind their net long position. This is a warning flag. The larger the small
trader’s net short position (compared to history) and the extent to which small
traders hold a position “against” the trend are factors that will
contribute to the bullishness of the report.

other Pairs | How to read COT Report

There is a classic bearish market setup when large traders
are net short (bearish if they have increased position in the last two weeks)
and small traders are net long in the market (bearish if the net -Long position
is relatively large and the trend is decisively down). One exception we’ve
noticed lately is the ability of the small trader in T-Bonds to spot the right
direction in the market. It is also important that the futures and options COT
report (which will be released a day later) confirms the situation indicated by
the futures only report.

 

What does the COT report say? How to take
benefits from this report for Gold and other pairs

The report is published weekly on Friday evenings by the
Commodity Futures Trading Commission . The report breaks down the volume of
purchases and sales into three groups: commercial, non-commercial and
non-reporting deals.

The biggest power in the marketplace are the commercials.
These are the major users and producers of the commodity. They do not use the
commodity markets to speculate or make money directly from the markets. They
are the producers and users of the goods. So they sell forward or hedge their
production/demand. They use the markets to sell and supply, not speculate.

There are the non-reporters, probably people like you…
people who trade in smaller volumes; the average trader. Interestingly,
sometimes their record in certain markets is very good, but more often than not
they are wrong.

Every week we find out exactly what the big ones were up to
in the marketplace… but it’s not quite that simple.

The non-commercials are the second most important figure in
the report. These are not quite what you think. It’s not just big traders like
me.

How to use the COT data? or How to read COT report

If you study this much, you will come across something
called the COT Index or Commercials Index. Most followers of the Commitments of
Traders Reports now use this index…

 

Despite what you may have read from other traders (people
who have only been looking at the index for a few years), it is not a black and
white situation. Just because the commercials, the biggest players in the
market, have emerged as buyers doesn’t mean a market will recover. How can this
be true?

Long position and short position in Forex

What are short and long positions?

One reason more
speculative investors are choosing to start trading Forex is that it
is possible to speculate that prices will go up as well as down. While a
classic investment is almost always only suitable for hoping for a positive
development of certain values, investors in forex trading can also benefit from
falling rates of the corresponding currency. In the following guide I would like to inform you how you can speculate on falling or rising prices and
what the so-called short and long positions are all about.

7. Conclusion

Exchange rates can rise and fall

As you know, forex
trading works by speculating that one currency will rise or fall in value
against another. As a result, forex trading is always based on the value
ratio of two currency pairs to one another, the exchange rate. So if I take for example the euro and US dollar currency pair, the value of the dollar
against the euro can rise or fall at any time. The exchange rate, which
can “run” in one direction or the other, then changes
accordingly. For example, if you decide to speculate that the dollar will
rise, you are simultaneously assuming that the euro will decrease in value
against the dollar for the currency pair mentioned above.
