My question here is open for discussion.
I am wondering if there's possibly a way to extract forex sentiment data from big brokers , e.g. oanda, igmarkets etc?

Yes u can connect to websocket or poll their servers with HTTP to get that data, relatively simple thing to implement. but does it matter if retail is 95% of the time wrong lol?

Probably yes, but it's easier to do it with FF. The picture is almost the same everywhere - negative correlation

haha i know about the downside.Of coz some will say just use it as a contrarian view.
But I would like to explore it and do some other form of analysis...
So just wondering i can pull those data to one place and analyze it.
Not sure if you are maybe looking for this? It's sentiment of traders from myfxbook.

Anything above the line is an uptrend, below the line is a downtrend.

If it changes real-time then most probably its done via websocket stream, use puppeteer to connect to browser or direct websocket connection to receive the data and store it like in a convenient format like csv. In python it's relatively easy thing to do provided your know or spend some time learning the language.

Besides polling, there are other ways: you can check if your broker offers position summaries. Many brokers also offer sentimental tools. You can also verify from online resources like DailyFx. They have their own sentimental indicators.
