The Hedgers' Ledger — 2026-08-01
Weekly COT extremes from the commercial book · CFTC report 2026-07-28 · 3-year window · Data: ChartHorizon
The report dated 2026-07-28 shows commercial hedgers pressed to a three-year positioning high in three markets — Euro FX and Canadian Dollar fresh to that register this week, the 10-Year T-Note already established there — with no market at the opposite extreme among the entries tracked here. The lean is one-sided, and the broader board carries additional extremes this issue does not detail. Three highs, no lows, and two of them newly arrived: that is not a crowded tape on both sides of the ledger — it is a tape that has chosen a direction, at least for now, and the sitting will tell us whether it holds.
| Market | Side | Percentile | New |
|---|---|---|---|
| Euro FX | ▲ HIGH | 99th | New |
| 10-Year U.S. T-Note | ▲ HIGH | 96th | |
| Canadian Dollar | ▲ HIGH | 96th | New |
