  "transcript": "Now this is the Gold COT report, which is also interesting considering that Gold also trying to get off the bottom, drag its ass, I'm going to say, in American sense, ass off the bottom, but also struggling. And let's look at the COT report on Gold and it's also pretty interesting. And you can see that the Commercials 54,000 contracts long, taking off 7,000, quite a lot, over 12%, reducing the long side, and 324,000 short still, and only taking a wee bit off the short side. So if anything, balancing more short for the Commercials. That could be hedging, and I wouldn't be surprised if it is, because I think that generally the market's very bullish on metals. But the timing of that bullish swing around might be... we'll look now at Commercial, Managed Money, and other traders might be just a little premature, a little bit too eager as traders mostly are. But the Commercials heavily short, going a little bit longer though. Producers heavily short, going a little bit shorter. Click the join button now to become part of the ArcisFX trading community.
