Hello Eliot,

According  to the COTs you provided Commercials have been heavily long
the  US  Dollar from October 2003 trough February 2004 and Dollar lost
5.5%  for  that  period.  That  may imply that the COTs are of limited
predicion value.

Best regards,
 Alex                            mailto:alex_bell@xxxxxxx
