COT Index Indicator
The COT Index Indicator is a powerful tool designed to visualize the Commitment of Traders (COT) data and offer insights into market sentiment. The COT Index is a measurement of the relative positioning of commercial traders versus non-commercial traders in the futures market. It is widely used to identify potential market reversals by observing the extremes in trader positioning.

Customizable Timeframe: The indicator allows you to choose a custom time interval (in months) to visualize the COT data, making it flexible to fit different trading styles and strategies.

COT Index Calculation: The index shows the positioning of commercial traders (hedgers) relative to non-commercial traders (speculators). A higher COT Index indicates that commercial traders are more heavily positioned, which is often seen as a sign of an overbought or oversold market.

How to Use:

Visualize Market Sentiment: A COT Index near extremes (close to 0 or 100) can indicate potential turning points in the market, as it reflects the market’s overbought or oversold conditions.

Adjust the Time Interval: The ability to adjust the time interval (in months) gives traders the flexibility to analyze the market over different periods, which can be useful in detecting longer-term trends or short-term shifts in sentiment.

Combine with Other Indicators: To enhance your analysis, combine the COT Index with other technical indicators like moving averages or momentum oscillators for more accurate trading signals.

This tool can serve as an invaluable addition to your trading strategy, providing a deeper understanding of the market dynamics and the positioning of major market participants.
