COT data of Aug 13th 2013 - British Pound [BP]

British Pounds - Total o/i  145126; spreads 3314 (= 2.3%). 

Nett differences:
Commercials +55820 (from +56196)  Large Specs -46521 (from -46033).  Small Specs -9299 (from -10163). 
Proportions:  
Commercials (50.8% of total o/i) - 70.5% of Longs, 31.1% of Shorts, balance plus 39.4
Large Specs (32.1% of total) - 15.7% of Longs, 48.5% of Shorts, balance minus 32.8
Small Specs (17.1% of total) - 13.8% of Longs, 20.4% of Shorts, balance minus 6.6
 
Prices once again moved erratically higher, but there was extremely little change in any of the running positions - with Commercials holding the same nett balance of plus 39.4, and Small Specs adding to longs and reducing shorts, both to a tiny extent (thus overall reducing their nett shorts marginally), there is little to say except that we remain less than positive on the Pound.
