Understanding the futures positions report

Where it stands today

Managed money were net short 46,813 contracts in LEAN HOGS futures in the week of 20 October 2026.

Who are the groups in the report?

The CFTC's Disaggregated report, one of its Commitments of Traders reports, gives the positions held in each commodity futures market on a Tuesday, sorted by kind of trader: managed money, producers, merchants, processors and users, swap dealers, other reportable traders and traders below the reporting level.

A position is a number of contracts, long or short; swap dealers, managed money and other reportables also report spread positions, which hold both. The CFTC assigns each reporting trader to a group from the business the trader reports. This page uses the report's futures-only figures, which leave out options. The report gives the contract size of LEAN HOGS futures as (CONTRACTS OF 40,000 POUNDS), and the market as LEAN HOGS - CHICAGO MERCANTILE EXCHANGE.

What 500metrics adds: net positions (long less short, which leave out spread positions), the change from the week before, the records since the week of 13 June 2006, and the last week a group's net position was larger on the same side.

What do these figures leave out, and how are they cited?Limits, dates and how to cite

What this number cannot tell you

Positions are those of the Tuesday the report is dated; the CFTC released the report on 23 October 2026.
A trader's group comes from the CFTC's own classification. Nonreportable positions are open interest less the reportable positions.
Net positions leave out spread positions, so a group's long and short do not account for all of its contracts.
Records and ranks are counted from the week of 13 June 2006, the start of this market's latest run of weekly reports. The CFTC can revise a week in a later report, and our collector keeps the earlier figure.
Contracts are not comparable between markets: the size of one is the CFTC's contract size above.
Market names are the CFTC's own, written as it writes them. 500metrics is independent and is not affiliated with, sponsored or endorsed by any index provider, exchange or company named in them.
