Currency ETFs: Australian Dollar, British Pound Hated More Than Euro | Page 2 of 2 | ETF Trends

Kimble Charting Solutions in a note this week said the spread between commercial and non-commercial Australian dollar traders is the widest in almost 10 years.

Net positions by commercial traders who use derivatives to hedge are long the Australian dollar, while non-commercial speculators are very bearish on the currency.

“When the Australian dollar moves higher, usually risk assets do too,” Kimble said.
