CoT: Peek Into Future Through Futures – How Hedge Funds Are Positioned
By: Hedgopia | January 6, 2018

Following futures positions of non-commercials are as of January 2, 2018.

Nasdaq 100 index (mini): Currently net long 17.9k, up 15k.



Shorts likely got cooked.

Mid-December (last year), short interest on QQQ (PowerShares QQQ trust) jumped 20.4 percent period-over-period to 64.2 million. On XLK, it shot up 20.1 percent to 38 million.

At one time, they were looking spot-on, as the Nasdaq 100 came under slight pressure after peaking at 6522.70 on the 18th last month. That was until the bulls defended the 20-day last Friday, followed by a new high of 6654.98 this Friday.

For the week, the cash surged four percent. Flows were not much of a factor. In the week to Wednesday, QQQ lost $2.2 billion (courtesy of ETF.com). But non-commercials were. . .
