Platinum: Expect substantial CTA selling activity over the coming week – TDS
|Platinum markets hold the most extreme asymmetry in algo flows expected over the coming week, TDS’ macro analyst Daniel Ghali notes.
Window for large-scale selling activity might be opening
“The window for large-scale selling activity could be opening, with a big downtape potentially catalyzing a massive -50% swing in algo positioning, whereas a commensurate uptape would only spark marginal buying activity.”
“Even in a flat tape, we expect substantial CTA selling activity over the coming week, with algos set to sell up to -20% of their max size over this timeframe. This set-up strongly favors continued downside over the coming week.”
