FX / Currencies — COT Reports
Select an instrument to view its full COT positioning chart and analysis.
Currency futures COT reports reveal how hedge funds, macro traders and commercial hedgers are positioned across the major and emerging-market FX pairs traded on the CME. Speculative net positioning in currencies is one of the most reliable contrarian indicators in the COT dataset: record net-long or net-short extremes in the Euro, Yen, Pound, Swiss Franc and Aussie dollar have historically coincided with turning points in the spot market. Watching the COT Index alongside interest-rate differentials and central bank policy expectations gives a complete picture of where institutional money is positioned heading into key events.
