In fact, traders have remained net-long since Aug 01 when EURUSD traded near 1.16629; price has moved 2.1% lower since then. The number of traders net-long is 0.1% higher than yesterday and 9.8% lower from last week, while the number of traders net-short is 2.8% higher than yesterday and 5.1% lower from last week.

Recent changes in sentiment warn that the current EURUSD price trend may soon reverse higher despite the fact traders remain net-long.
