COT Report charts

Is there a platform or app that allows you to see charts of the COT reports released by CFTC?

I'm reading a book that gives formulas for analysis and I'd like to be able to plug it in real easy to see rather than make some complex Excel spreadsheet.

 

Sure, it's right here.

Does anyone here actually get any utility out of the COT report? I mean incremental actionable information without which you would not either initiate or close out a trade?

NO;
especially since in some markets , traders are not the main movers of markets.

 

Nah, it may be useful for long-term positional trading analysis since it is once per week. If it was a real-time feed every day all day? THAT would be fascinating!

 

Can see positioning. If everyone is short or long, and there’s a risk catalyst coming up, you can identify where a potential move might come from.

 

How to track the "smart money"?

 

I'm assuming Larry Williams? Good luck with anything Larry Williams. Do keep us posted.

 

If everyone is long or short, then who is on the other side of the trade?
