Commitments of Traders Report
The Commitments of Traders Report is a valuable report that is made available by the regulatory authority – the CFTC – once a week. The aim of this report is to bring transparency to the trading activities of all market participants.
In this context, there are two types of report: the abridged form, which has been made available to the traders since 1986 (=Legacy reports), as well as the detailed version, which has been published since 2009 (=Disaggregated reports). Both reports can be displayed in AgenaTrader and used for semi-automated trading as well as for analyzing and scanning the global markets in real time.
The COT report is not only interesting for futures trading, but is also ideally suited for swing trades with IndexCFDs, CommodityCFDs and Forex values.
Commitments of Traders Report Software
Using AgenaTrader in combination with the new Commitments of Traders Report AddOn is an extremely efficient way to work with the CFTC data and carry out your analyses.
To make trading and working with the COT data as simple and intuitive as possible, the COT software contains a large number of components that make trading easier for you.
