Dislikedmy interpretation for this COT data is this: for medium/long term positioning and trading, i look closely for breaks below/above 0 for commercials. that is the moment when the change in trend is confirmed (although the beginning is much earlier...! but i am not picking tops or bottoms, i am most interested in what's easier to get).
here's my example, on euro chart. black arrows are places where commercials contracts went through 0. that's when the change in trend is confirmed. weekly chart looks more neat, it also gives you some values - but...Ignored
