RE: COT. Have a question.
The pattern from Sept 11 to now does not make sense to me. I understand the big decrease in commercial shorts in the weeks after that date. However, the net commercial shorts has gotten high again but this has happened while the market has been moving up very fast...--could the speed be a factor?
We are now approaching commercial levels that are very within range of the September's high levels.

In September it was an external event that tanked the markets and the net commercial shorts declined fast.
Does it not become a case of running out of amo to drop the market---therefore just becoming a game of "hope", hoping that the market drops.

Also don't see a similar pattern to what we saw in April.

My logic may be incorrect on this; maybe someone can clarify.

BTW--is there a site to learn how to interpret this data; thanks.
