COT Reports is looking good for a turnaround to begin around Mid-August. The Commitment of Traders (COT) reports show futures traders’ positions at the close of (usually) Tuesday’s trading session. The report is prepared by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). It is an excellent trading tool and can be used as an indicator for analyzing market sentiment. Markets are only included if 20 or more traders hold positions equal to or above the reporting levels established by the CFTC and the respective exchanges.

Stochastic pattern is bottoming out and pointing to a major uptrend in the new term. The Stochastic Oscillator is a range bound momentum oscillator. The Stochastic indicator is designed to display the location of the close compared to the high/low range over a user defined number of periods. Typically, the Stochastic Oscillator is used for three things: Identifying overbought and oversold levels, spotting divergences and identifying bull and bear set ups or signals.
