Retail trader data shows 36.0% of traders are net-long with the ratio of traders short to long at 1.78 to 1. The number of traders net-long is 2.3% higher than yesterday and 22.3% lower from last week, while the number of traders net-short is 9.9% higher than yesterday and 17.5% higher from last week.
I typically take a contrarian view to crowd sentiment, and the fact traders are net-short suggests GBPJPY 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 GBPJPY-bullish contrarian trading bias.
