What this week's report says
CautionPositioning is stretched: leveraged funds are more net short than in 87% of the past 3 years. Crowded shorts raise squeeze risk — a caution flag, not a buy signal on its own.
Leveraged funds added 4,530 long contracts and added 7,531 short contracts in Canadian Dollar this week — a net bearish shift of −3,001 contracts. They remain net short overall.
Leveraged funds and asset managers moved in opposite directions this week — speculative and institutional flows disagree on Canadian Dollar.
Open interest rose alongside the positioning change — fresh money is entering, which typically strengthens the move rather than short-covering.
