25.81% of traders are net-long (buying more than selling)The ratio of short to long positions is 2.88 to 1Recent Changes:

Net-long traders:Increased by 3.41% since yesterdayDecreased by 6.04% since last weekNet-short traders:Decreased by 3.21% since yesterdayIncreased by 13.11% since last weekAnalysis: We usually interpret crowd sentiment in a contrarian manner. Since traders are predominantly short, this suggests GBP/USD prices might rise.

However, the sentiment is mixed:

Compared to yesterday: Slightly less bearish (fewer short positions)Compared to last week: More bearish (more short positions)Conclusion: Due to the conflicting short-term and medium-term trends in trader sentiment, our trading bias for GBP/USD is mixed
