CME COT [Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital]
CME COT Indicator Manual
Commitments of Traders, Simplified with Sentiment Analysis
🎯 What’s In It For You?
If you’ve ever wished you could peek into the minds of big institutions, hedge funds, and money managers before making your trades—this is your window.
The CME COT Indicator transforms raw, complex Commitment of Traders Reports into a clean, easy-to-read dashboard right on your TradingView chart. It tells you:
✅ Who’s long, who’s short, and by how much
✅ Whether the “big money” is bullish or bearish
✅ The exact reason for the sentiment (no more guessing)
✅ A weekly pulse of institutional positioning to guide your trades
It’s like having the market’s “cheat sheet” whispered into your ear.
⚙️ How It Works
Raw COT Data
Plots Long Open Interest, Short Open Interest, and Net Positions for noncommercial traders (the smart money).
Updates with the latest weekly COT report.
Sentiment Analysis Layer
Calculates whether the market is Bullish or Bearish.
Explains the reasoning (e.g., “Net positive, longs dominate and increased”).
Gives you confidence before pulling the trigger.
Visual Dashboard
Rows for longs, shorts, changes, percentages, and open interest.
Optional compact mode: skip the data, show just sentiment + reason.
Colors tell the story instantly:
🟢 Green = Bullish or rising longs
🔴 Red = Bearish or rising shorts
🛠️ Features That Make It Fun
Market Mood Detector: instantly know if the market is feeling bullish or bearish.
Compact vs. Full Mode: keep it clean or nerd out with all the data.
Reasoning Engine: don’t just get “Bullish”—get the why (e.g., “Net positions up + longs expanded”).
Crisp Aesthetics: clear fonts, contrasting colors, optional placement (bottom left, right, top right).
🚀 Best Use Cases
Swing Traders: Use COT sentiment to confirm your bias before entering multi-day positions.
Futures & Commodity Traders: Perfect for gold, oil, FX futures—where big money dominates.
Macro Investors: Spot long-term positioning trends and align with institutions.
Crypto Traders: Even though COT is CME data, it offers indirect insights into speculative appetite that spills into Bitcoin/Ethereum futures.
🧠 Pro Tips
Combine with Technicals: Use the COT indicator to confirm your chart setups (e.g., FVG, order blocks, VWAP).
Watch for Divergences: If price is dropping but net positions are climbing, it could mean accumulation.
Mind the Lag: COT reports come weekly—don’t expect intraday signals, but use it as your bias anchor.
Compact Mode for Speed: In fast markets, use the “compact” display to just see sentiment + reason.
🕹️ Quick Start Guide
Add CME COT Indicator to your TradingView chart.
Choose your display mode: Full Dashboard or Compact Sentiment.
Track the weekly updates (typically Friday afternoons).
Align your trades with institutional sentiment.
Profit with confidence knowing you’re on the side of the big players.
💡 Example in Action
Gold, Sep 28, 2025:
Longs up by +6,030, Shorts also up but by less.
Net positions remain strongly positive.
Indicator says:
🟢 Bullish – Net positive, longs dominate and increased.
Would you fight that? Or join the money managers riding the wave?
🔑 Final Word
Trading is war. The CME COT indicator hands you the battlefield map: who’s marching long, who’s retreating short, and whether the tide is turning. Use it as your compass for bias, then execute with your favorite price action strategy.
With this in your arsenal, you’re not trading blind—you’re trading with the generals.
🔥 Ready to trade with the big boys? Add CME COT to your chart and let the data do the talking.
