DislikedXAUUSD and why I'm not as bearish as in my previous post. Over the past few weeks we have seen increase in dovishness among a few Central Banks (BOC ,FED ,ECB, BOJ) which could potentially push more money into gold. Within the latest release of the data what has really piqued my interest and subsequent lessening of opinion is what the Commercials have done with their positions or rather, their rate of liquidation. From the 12th to 19th Commercials added in 54k Shorts during a period of what would become the most recent high in price but since then,...Ignored
DislikedXAUUSD Since my previous mention about a large net long increase by Commercials {quote} Commercials have since slowly moved towards a more net short position and Non-Commercials more Net Long [look over the data yourself for individual longs and shorts]. More bullish momentum to come? {image}{image} ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Any comments ?Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hi MoshiM, Current readings in Gold COT report does not help me too much... The last major extreme was bullish so until the last major bottom is broken (mid 2018) I think this signal is still valid and we can expect higher prices to come in the long run. For me what is causing cautiousness (short term) is the negative divergence between miners and gold itself (compare HUI Senior Gold miners from 2016 to present with Gold itself). I'd be more inclined to accept the bullish picture once this divergence disappears. All the best, Dunstan {image}...Ignored

Disliked{quote} Hi MoshiM, I thought I'll share with you the following finding. You might be interested in looking at the options only data, because to me it seems as if there are some "smart people" among commercial participants. Look at the attached chart and it becomes obvious. I believe we have a good chance that gold will be headed north in the next couple of days, few weeks. All the best, Dunstan COT Charts FOREX Trading Futures...Ignored

Disliked{quote} Thank you Dunstan. I completely agree. I suppose I should mention that in my previous post I meant "re-entering the Long trend". I did have a few early buys on gold , but I've held onto them. That large change in positions for the APR-02 report that you highlighted above is noticeable in the raw data but certainly more clear on an options only chart . {image} {image}Ignored
Disliked{quote} Yeap, exactly! I've never looked at the options only data, but it seems to be very reliable! Another great example is EUR (see attachment). And you can see how well the market reacted. Another interesting analysis is on Crude Oil (WTI), again by looking at options only data. Looks like there could be a good opportunity to short the market. What is your opinion? All the best, Dunstan COT Charts FOREX Trading Futures...Ignored
