Commitment of traders report: EUR shorts trimmed
Forex futures market speculative positions data from CFTC commitment of traders report as of close on December 8
The EUR shorts were pared by 10K as of the close of business on Tuesday Dec 8th according to the weekly CFTC commitment of traders report. In the week ending Dec 1, the EUR had the largest short position since May 5,2015 at 182K short.
Since that time, the EURUSD moved higher by about 260 pips as of the close of business on Dec 8. It is currently up 360 pips from the Dec 1 net speculative position.
It is thought that if there is a large position, the potential exists for a squeeze in the opposite direction of the position. With 172K short and the net position only down 10K this week, there could be more of a squeeze if pushed.
