Net Positions of CME Bitcoin Futures by Trader Category

The Commitment of Traders Report (COT) is published by the CFTC and provides a breakdown of each Tuesday’s open interest on futures markets that have 20 or more traders that hold positions at or above reporting levels. The report is published every Friday, submitting the final numbers from the prior Tuesday’s trading close.

This chart represents the net positioning of open interest (The total value of open long positions - the total value of open short positions) across CFTC categorized trader classifications as of Tuesday's trading day close. Note, this only takes into account positioning around CME bitcoin futures and does not factor real total net exposure that funds have outside CFTC regulated futures products.
