COT Strategy
SHORT
Japanese Yen (6J)

My COT strategy has me on alert for short trades in 6B if we get a confirmed bearish change of trend on the Daily timeframe.

COT Commercial Index: Sell Signal

Valuation: Overvalued vs Gold & Treasuries

Extreme Positioning: Commercials most short they have been in last 3 years = bearish. Small Specs most long they have been in 3 years = bearish.

OI Analysis: OI has been increasing on up move. When OI increases, we need to ask "who caused the OI increase"? When it is caused by Large Specs & Small Specs, it is bearish.

True Seasonal: Strong seasonal tendency to go down to October.

COT Small Spec Index: Sell Signal

Supplementary Indicators: %R & Momentum (not confirmed)

Remember, this is not a "Short Now" idea. These indicators are not timing tools. They simply tell us that this market could have a move of some significance to the downside, which we will participate in with a confirmed Daily trend change to the downside.

Good luck & good trading.
