RE:Algorithmic traders amplify crude price rout:Interesting pick up thanks for posting. Who had CTAs on their bingo card for the large price drop?
"CTAs are currently estimated to be net short in Brent by about 36% compared to being net long by 27% at the end of last week, according to the Bridgeton data. In WTI, they are similarly bearish and are about 54% net short compared to 9% net short last week." The good news is they can't short forever and will have to cover eventually. Perhaps tomorrow with a favourable EIA report.
