FO COT Index

FO COT Index (Invite-Only)

The FO COT Index is a professional-grade positioning tool built around Commitments of Traders (COT) data, designed to help traders identify institutional positioning extremes and potential macro turning points.

This indicator transforms raw COT positioning into a structured index framework that highlights when major market participants are historically stretched — a condition that often precedes significant price movements.

What It Helps You See

• Institutional accumulation and distribution zones
• Extreme positioning conditions
• Long-term sentiment shifts
• Early structural reversals
• Divergence between positioning and price

The tool is designed for traders who want a deeper layer of confirmation beyond traditional price-based indicators.

Core Features

• Normalized COT Index with expanded extreme detection
• Multi-participant tracking (Commercials, Non-Commercials, Non-Reportables)
• Advanced divergence detection engine
• Clean visual framework for decision support

The index structure allows traders to quickly identify when positioning reaches statistically meaningful levels relative to its own historical behavior.

How Traders Commonly Use It

Confirm macro bias on higher timeframes

Identify contrarian reversal zones

Filter swing trades

Spot structural exhaustion in trending markets

This is not a signal generator — it is a positioning intelligence tool designed to enhance decision-making.

Important Notes

• Designed primarily for futures markets and instruments with COT coverage
• Best used on weekly timeframe
• Works as a complement to price structure and risk management
