Excellent video - was searching up COT data just today
Thanks! this was very helpful for me
Jason, you are the man!
Great stuff...I appreciate the education
Beautifully explained. Thank you so much for walking us through how you read your COT charts, Jason. Really appreciate the thoughtfulness here. =)
Thank you for sharing your ideas about how to approach the market. I find it interesting.
Thank you Jason
Just came across your channel and recognized your name from Market Wizards, I liked your interview with Jack S. Great content and appreciate your honest, humble, straight forward approach to presenting it.
Very helpful. Great info!
Informative! Thanks!
Nice work
So useful. Thank you!
Good explanation
thanks Jason
So good video about trading and finance
great content and explanation how you use it, first time i hear about this data. Thanks!!! Would be great to know what are your lookback periods that you found working for you.
Hi Jason, thanks for the great content, I always look forward to it!
Just wondering how you consider exiting trades. Do you systematise it by percentages or fixed cot index numbers or use a similar news confirmation as with entries? Maybe an idea for a new video too. Thanks.
when cot goes back to neutral levels I exit
Jason - nice video. Is it possible to get this data for individual stocks - at least the large caps?
Thanks
A quick web scraper and a little Prometheus and Grafana running in some containers would make fast work of the available CFTC delimited files that are published weekly at the same URL.
Thanks Jason. Of course I’ve read about your approach in a popular book and recently have been watching and learning from you. Great stuff!
I understand the “commercials” for commodities. Who are the “commercials” for Nasdaq futures if hedge funds are large speculators? Are these market makers hedging options?
I believe that is one group yes
@@jasonshapiro4369 can you please say a bit more about that? i wanted to ask the same exact question.
thanks!
Very pleased I found you but could you explain who is the Commercial for equities, currencies, treasuries and any other non commodity asset
Interesting vid, as always! One question: who are the "commercials" when it comes to financial instruments such as index and bond futures for instance. It's not as obvious to me as it is with commodity futures. Thanks,
this is a question I hear alot, and truth is there is not obvious answer. I know investment banks qualify as commercials
In the wheat market commercials are farmers. Who are considered commercials in the Nasdaq?
Very good video Jason, thanks! I have one question in general. How do you build confidence to trade so many markets? Isn't convention like pick one market/product and be very good at it to be consistent trader?
I trade 1 process across many different markets. its like waiting for the card count on a certain table to go up and then stepping into that table.
@@jasonshapiro4369 got it! More like deploying trend following across universe of markets. Do you feel/observed your contrarian approach works better in one market than the other?
@@chr971 not really. seems to work and not work pretty evenly across markets
@@jasonshapiro4369 thanks for the reply!
is there any reason you prefer to use the legacy report rather than the disaggregated report?
just what I have found works best for me.
Can you use this info to trade stocks not just commodities
First!!!! Since the other guy is a bot. 😄
How do you tell difference between large and small speculators on cot data?
the color or the bar
@@jasonshapiro4369 sorry i meant in the actual legacy reports. is non-reportable small speculators?
@@lavs8696 yes exactly
real recognize real
10:35 I wonder why he said backtesting can be very dangerous?
curve-fitting and other cognitive errors leading to false conclusions
I am more of a hodler 🧙🏼♂️
So, the large speculators tend to get it wrong more often than the commercials and that's why we are more interested in their data?
at major turning points yes. there are other ways to use the data depending on your trading goals/style
Hey Jason, thank you for the good explanation! Cheers from Germany (Mathias)
*PromoSM* 😩
Jason, In any given moment, why is the sum of the bars above the horizon equal to the one below or the shorts/longs ratio appears 1?
