Retail trader data shows 48.3% of traders are net-long with the ratio of traders short to long at 1.07 to 1. The number of traders net-long is 2.4% higher than yesterday and 35.6% lower from last week, while the number of traders net-short is 4.4% higher than yesterday and 63.4% higher from last week.
We typically take a contrarian view to crowd sentiment, and the fact traders are net-short suggests EURUSD prices may continue to rise. Traders are further net-short than yesterday and last week, and the combination of current sentiment and recent changes gives us a stronger EURUSD-bullish contrarian trading bias.
