COT positioning
CFTC Commitments of Traders managed-money nets for commodities agents that need positioning context alongside cash and inventories.
Which codes are typical?
Common managed-money nets include energy and metals roots such as CL, NG, GC, and ags such as ZC — confirm availability via /v1/catalog.
How should agents cite COT?
Use as_of (report date), source name CFTC, and freshness_class. Do not mix COT with real-time futures prices as if they share one timestamp.
Is COT free?
No — it is an x402 paid route. Catalog and calendar remain free for discovery.
