Ethan,I want to thank you for the clarifications. The Outlook page here is by far the most informative of all the other FX sentiment/position indicators available on the web, keep up the great work!

I guess it would depend on whether they maintained open positions. I review similar sentiment/position level indicators at other sites (Oanda, Duka, FXCM, etc) and they don't drop data for open positions. What about long-term traders that make trades on a weekly/monthly basis? If the activity drop-off is one week or thereabouts, it wouldn't account for these types of traders.I certainly don't fault Oanda for paying interest (it would be great if all brokers did the same!) or reporting interest as a profitability metric (it's great marketing!).
