Each CoT report data line has 129 information fields - MetaStock can 
only handle six of those per data file.
If that's not enough to deal with, the CFTC changes the CoT data field 
format now and then, adding new contracts (and/or changing the 
contract names) on a regular basis, making the MetaStock data 
extraction process even more cumbersome.

Extracting accurate and meaningful CoT data in MetaStock format is 
almost a full-time job.
This is a summary of the latest available CoT data:
