The Commitment of Traders report shows how different classes of participants are positioned in futures markets, published weekly by the CFTC.

Which markets does it cover?

Major futures markets across commodities, currencies and indices where COT data is published.

Can positioning predict a top or bottom?

Not on its own. It shows where positioning is crowded; combined with regime and catalysts it helps you judge risk, not time exact turns.

Smart-money positioning, without the spreadsheet

The weekly COT report is dense and lagged. TradeEasy reads it for you — highlighting where positioning is one-sided, where it is unwinding, and how that fits the current regime.

Positioning as context, not a countdown

Stretched positioning does not time a reversal by itself, but it tells you where the fuel is. Paired with the regime and the calendar, it sharpens your read on which moves have room to run.

Built into your watchlist

COT context surfaces alongside the sentiment read for the assets it covers, so positioning is part of the same one-glance picture rather than a separate research chore.
