Positioning is the CFTC report dated 2026-10-13.
Quiet means one series is inside its neutral band. It is not a missing report.
The same band as the currency strength meter: inside ±5 on the normalized 4H score.
There is no USD currency futures contract in the CFTC currency set. The dollar is the base that the seven other contracts are quoted against, so it has no separate speculative series. USD still carries a strength reading.
Strength is computed from recent price changes across all 28 pairings of the eight majors, the same calculation behind the currency strength meter. Net speculative position is the CFTC Commitment of Traders figure for each currency's CME contract, as published weekly.
Strength is computed from current prices. Positioning is a weekly CFTC report covering positions held on an earlier date, which is why each column carries its own stamp.
No. Each verdict is a mechanical comparison of two directions. It describes what the two series currently say about a currency and nothing about what price will do next.
