compare Feb, April June contracts' Open Interest in Gold for years 2018 2019 2020 + CFTC COT Open Interest
what 2019 Jan 7 COT OI will look like
That's 11506 up for gold on friday
Next day after 200 MA breakdown Price Down Volume Up Open Interest UP = new shorts enetring mkt?
OI going up with price, since it touched its overall minimum, lower than Jan 2016
2018/09/11 It seems that MM are getting into shorts heavily, while still at their maximum in terms of total contracts. So they are not exactly exiting gold for better opportunities. But they are a fast reacting category, so I see this as an opportunistic position of them, that might change rapidly. To watch
E-MINI &P500, Cftc Open Interest & Asset Managers LO/SH (%)
And next... they say down...
Gold doesn't seem to change over there.
