Long time lurker and I have been absorbing alot of material here. I created blog/site about Sentiment Indicators and the COT report. Exhd Hopefully this isn't spamming but do let me know your opinion.

Hey dude can you reccomend me some sources/books for COT...

just finished reading Larry Williams COT book, ive got Floyd Uppermans and Stephen Briese's books printing out as we speak...

one thing ive been noticing is that even though commercials are what we are meant to look at, is that large traders seem to have the direction right... so when the large traders are net short, the trend is down and vice versa... when they are at extremes you may get a reversal but more often then not they will still stay net short (long) and thus the trend will continue...

if you look at it large traders tend to pick every peak and trough with their net position...

thanks, nice site.

You seem to have some very strong opinions on TA and diversification, but the arguments you are putting forward are to put it bluntly rather weak.

i read all 3, floyd's i think is the one with alot of propriety this and that. Steve Briese's book was fine but at the end it looks good on paper and in books but you still need to pracitce

I am not trying to convert anyone, and if the arguments are weak thats fine. I am not going to spoon feed or try to come with an amazing argument against technical. I just give my opinion and people can make up their minds.

Here is COT data for download, almost everyone I found charges money or it doesnt exist. So compiled it and you can plot it in any software http://exhd.com/cot/cot-data
