REPORT 2026-10-13 · 2 FLIPPED TO REDUCING
FUTURES · CURRENCIES · STOCKS

Both sides of the book, every Friday, for 42 markets.

Long and short reported separately — never collapsed into one net number — then tracked as a campaign: opened, peaked, unwinding. Seventeen years of it, and not one trade signal for sale.

Now with stocks: build areas on monthly, weekly and daily charts, who holds the shares, and what the filings say. See stocks →

Where buyers stepped in, on every stock chart.

Build areas on monthly, weekly and daily charts: held, broken or never revisited. Next to them, who holds the shares and what the company's own filings say. For trading and for investing.

THE ONE THING WE'VE ACTUALLY TESTED

When Managed Money starts reducing, price tends to follow.

Real backtest, not a marketing number: every time Managed Money's net position in Gold entered a reducing campaign since 2000 (n=22), forward returns were negative on average at every horizon we checked — swimming against Gold's own upward bias, not riding it. Replicated on Corn and EUR/USD. Commercial positioning and every other pattern we've tried has NOT held up at scale — we say so, on the same page as this one that did.

STOCKS · PART OF CORE

Build areas for stocks: where buyers stepped in, for trading and for investing.

CORE · EXAMPLE TILES AND CHART, MADE-UP NUMBERS

The same idea as the futures zones, applied to US stocks: the base a move broke out of, known only once the break closed, drawn on monthly, weekly and daily charts from the day it formed to the day it broke. Next to it, who actually holds the shares and what the company's own filings say.

  • Results dates on the chart, so earnings don't catch you out.
FOR INVESTING

  • Who holds the shares: funds (SEC 13F), short sellers and everyone else, quarter by quarter.
  • A business check from SEC filings: revenue, profit, free cash flow and new shares issued, plus buybacks.

BEFORE YOU ASK

Questions people actually have

Is this financial advice or a signal service?

No. Everything here is descriptive — real positioning data, computed context, and validated patterns (see above). Nothing on this site is a buy/sell signal, and we say exactly where the evidence stops.

How is this different from reading the raw CFTC report myself?

You still can — every plan includes the raw weekly numbers, Long and Short reported separately, never collapsed into one net figure. What this adds is the campaign tracking, zone context, and cross-market screening on top, computed the same way every week.

Why do phase labels sometimes look different for the same market?

Legacy (Non-Commercial/Commercial) and Disaggregated (Managed Money/Producer) are two different CFTC classifications of the same underlying report. We disclose which basis every number uses rather than quietly picking one and hiding the difference.

What happens after the free tier?

Nothing — Free stays free, no card required, no trial clock. The dashboard, weekly snapshot, and campaign phase on every market are yours either way. Core unlocks the screener, comparison tools, zone map, and the rest of the toolset when you want them.

Do you cover stocks?

Yes, as part of Core: 50+ US stocks to start, with build areas on monthly, weekly and daily charts, who holds the shares (funds, short sellers, everyone else), a business check from SEC filings, and results dates.

Is the stocks side a stock-picking service?

No. It shows where build areas sit, who holds the shares and what the filings say, with the research behind each piece, including what didn't work. What to do with it is your decision.

Can I cancel Core or Team any time?

Yes, from Account at any point — no minimum term, no retention call.

Is the data actually real, or illustrative?

The report data is real, sourced directly from the CFTC's own weekly filing — the same one exchanges report into. Where something on this site is illustrative rather than live (like the Showcase pages above), we say so explicitly rather than let you assume otherwise.

$19/month for the full toolset.

Free tier gets the dashboard and market pages, no card required. Cancel Core any time.
