What is sentimental analysis in forex

Hello Masandirex

No doubt John summarized it very nicely.

But I can give you a place to go for some specific, current examples.
Try this thread.

COT Report Analysis - a thread on market sentiment - Trading Discussion / Economics - BabyPips.com Forex Trading Forum

It’s a thread we started some years ago. It was discontinued. But I revived of late. If you don’t know what the COT report is, you can go to the beginning and learn about.

But this is just one type of sentimental analysis. I guess there’s others.

But on the other hand, I think it’s a lot of semantics. Cause, if you ask me, everything (all analysis) can be broken down into one of two categories. Fundamental analysis or Technical analysis. Now Sentimental Analysis, to be truthful, I always thought was what the COT report was. Which is nothing but knowledge of how the big traders are positioned in the futures market (which transcends throughout all the major markets).

It’s an insight into how the traders are thinking. Which is either long or short (can’t be any other way). And since they have to report what their open interest contracts are, nothing else makes sense to what their sentiment might be.

Anyway, try it out, Masandirex.
And I do agree with Kancho. You have to dig and find the answers.
But they will be all found in here in BabyPips.
