Description of Commitments of Traders

A revolutionary approach to identifying price trend changes and large-profit opportunities

By understanding commercial activity and monitoring its behavior, a trader can potentially forecast significant changes in price direction. Author Floyd Upperman shows readers how to use the Commitment of Traders (COT) reports to accomplish this goal. Upperman skillfully explains how to break down the COT data into producers, consumers, and funds so that investors can understand the positions and activities of these key market participants. He shows how to monitor the COT activity to detect position imbalances that could be harbingers of major trend changes and illustrates his techniques for combining traditional technical analysis of price with the COT data.
Floyd Upperman (Canal Winchester, OH) has emerged as the leading expert in the trading industry on using Commitment of Traders data to identify profitable trading opportunities.
