- The FXCM Speculative Sentiment Index (FXCM SSI) from FXCM, a retail currency trading broker, is now available for public distribution. FXCM SSI provides a snapshot of the market sentiment and the pen interest of small noncommercial forex market participants. The indicator is compiled using aggregate order flow information from FXCM’s non-commercial clients (more than 55,000). FXCM SSI provides data on the long and short positions held by non-commercial market participants for the major currency pairs (EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD, and USD/CHF), as well as current market positioning on the day of publication, and indicates if a currency pair is overbought or oversold. In addition, the FXCM SSI leverages FXCM’s client base of speculative traders from North America, Europe and Asia to provide global market sentiment, without bias toward American trading activity. The FXCM SSI is made available to the general public on the Internet at 10:30 a.m. ET every Thursday. Visit www.dailyfx.com/ssi.html for more information.
