COT Data

@virajhshah @PeakTrading ~20% of global LNG flows through the strait. Qatar disruption → gas spike → nitrogen fertilizer surges (already at 503 on BLS PPI). Higher input costs = fewer planted acres next season = that S/U ratio tightens fast. Hedge funds may be early, not wrong. #COT #Cotton #AgMarkets

@virajhshah @PeakTrading Interesting on cotton specifically - fundamentals are actually bearish right now. US S/U 32.4%, global S/U 64.4%, ending stocks +10% YoY. Record longs into oversupply 👀 Potential risk is Hormuz escalation.

Hedge funds are the LONGEST across the ag complex in 3 years at $22.8 billion. Record Cotton inflows two weeks ago. Record Sugar inflows last week. Crude Oil is driving capital into #ags and the flow data proves it. 🌾🛢️ #AgMarkets #COT #CrudeOil

@dchijioke @Yongazhi or to be more precise: Bitcoin futures at 99th percentile net long, Z-score +2.34 - hedge funds are as long as they've ever been in the dataset. Crowded longs are a caution signal. When everyone's already long, who's left to buy?

@Yongazhi yes COT report

@IntlStacker Commercial shorts have been falling since Jan. But the more interesting signal in this week's COT is large specs quietly rebuilding longs from a historically low base (COT Index = 7). Less dramatic, but that's where the actual positioning shift is happening.

🚨COMMERCIAL SHORTS IN SILVER JUST COLLAPSED — BIG DE-RISKING HAPPENING?🚨 👉Look at this sharp drop on the latest COT report: 🔥Commercial short positions in silver futures have plunged to just 70,296 contracts — one of the lowest levels in years! 🔥This is a major reduction in hedging by producers and industry players! 🔥Many see this as a bullish signal that the “smart money” is stepping back from being heavily short! 👉But it could also mean other things — seasonal hedging adjustments, margin pressure, or simply repositioning ahead of expected volatility! 👉Either way, the paper market is showing signs of stress while the physical market continues to tighten! 🚨Crustacean Nation: 🔥Commercial shorts collapsing = bullish turning point or just noise? 🔥Reading this as a signal to stack more physical? 🔥What’s your take on the latest COT data? 👉Drop your thoughts & stack updates below!👇🦀 *Not financial advice.

Weekly COT Report update: 2Y Treasury shorts hit -1.64M contracts - deepest in 10 years. AUD longs at 99th percentile. Bitcoin futures at 99th. Crowding everywhere. #COT #CFTC #Macro #Futures #Bitcoin cotdata.uk/blog/2026-03-2…

@McClellanOsc Also, watch out for a liquidity vacuum. With both funds and retail heavily skewed long right now, the trade is crowded. When everyone who wants to buy already has, who is left to push the price higher? The trend is up, but conditions are ripe for a sharp long squeeze.

This week's COT Report released on Friday showed that the small "non-reportable" traders of crude oil futures are still up at a really high (for them) net long position. They are skewed to the long side, so one must judge their position relative to past data.

Record Treasury shorts. Record FX longs. Nine markets at 95th+ percentile extremes. This week's COT data is wild. 🧵👇 #CFTC #COT #Futures cotdata.uk/blog/2026-03-1…

@WalkSquawk Exactly right, and the world supply picture gives this legs. US corn S/U sits 3pp above the 5yr average, so funds aren't buying domestic tightness. They're buying global tightness: world S/U at 23.7% vs. a 26.6% average - below trend and widening.

Something interesting showing up in the latest COT report… Funds aggressively added to corn. Managed Money: +140,297 contracts on the week ending 3/10/26. That pushed funds to roughly 193k net long corn. What’s notable is the trade estimate only had funds around 47k net long going home Tuesday. Meaning the move into corn was much larger than expected. Zooming out, this lines up with a bigger macro setup developing: • Oil pushing toward $100 • Fertilizer prices rising • Bloomberg Commodity Index breaking higher • Funds rotating back into commodities When energy spikes, it tends to spill into agriculture. Energy → fertilizer → crop input costs → grain markets. We saw this chain reaction during the 2006–2008 commodity run. Corn may be starting to attract macro commodity flows again. Oil might be the headline… but grains could be next. #WalkSquawk

@ACY_Securities "institutions dumped 36k longs" when the COT report shows they closed exactly 287 of them. 😭 Actual CFTC data for 2026-03-03: → Non-commercial longs: -287 contracts (essentially FLAT) → What actually happened: shorts ADDED +20,071 The 36k number doesn't exist in the report.
