* COT data sourced from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Positions are captured as of Tuesday close and published the following Friday at 3:30 PM ET. Close Price reflects the settlement price on the report date, sourced from Yahoo Finance. Where no price is available (market holiday or unlisted instrument), the field shows "—". This data is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.
The Latest COT Report shows this week's CFTC Legacy Commitments of Traders data for 350+ markets — Futures Only by default; COT Premium members can switch to Futures & Options Combined. Positions are reported as of the previous Tuesday's close and published every Friday at 3:30 PM Eastern Time, broken down into Non-Commercial (large speculators), Commercial (hedgers) and Non-Reportable (small traders) net positions and weekly changes.
The Latest COT Report is this week's CFTC Commitments of Traders snapshot in the Legacy format, shown as Futures Only by default (COT Premium members can switch to Futures & Options Combined). It shows long, short and net positions for three trader categories — Non-Commercial (large speculators), Commercial (hedgers) and Non-Reportable (small traders) — across every CFTC-tracked futures market.
The CFTC publishes a new COT report every Friday at 3:30 PM Eastern Time. The data reflects positions held as of the close of business on the previous Tuesday — there is a 3-day reporting lag. When a US federal holiday falls on the Wednesday, Thursday or Friday of that week, the release moves to the next business day, usually the following Monday — a Monday holiday such as Labor Day does not delay it.
The Futures Only report includes positions in futures contracts only. The Futures and Options Combined report includes both futures and the futures-equivalent of options positions. The Latest COT Report on this page shows the Legacy report as Futures Only by default — the most widely cited COT version; COT Premium members can switch to Futures & Options Combined.
Net Position equals Long minus Short for the trader category. A positive number means the category is net long the market (more long exposure than short); a negative number means net short. Week-over-week changes show whether the category increased or decreased its exposure.
