Weekly Summary of Forex Trader Sentiment and Changes in Positioning
There have been few major shifts in retail crowd positioning on approach to the holidays, but one thing is clear: traders are reducing net-exposure, ever so slightly. This shift in behavior is typical for this time of year, but highlights the necessity of understanding the trading environment that you’re operating in.
