Speculative Investors' Bet On EUR's Fall Hit New Record High Speculative traders on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange broke the $28 billion record high for their bet on the EUR's fall, data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission showed on Friday. Traders increased their open short EUR position by 12% from a week earlier to reach a net of $31 billion as of Tuesday. The single currency lost over %5 against the US dollar on May so far due to the concerns over the possibility of Greek exit combined with the disappointing outcome of the EU summit on Wednesday. But FX strategists at Barclays Capital and other banks warn from some short EUR covering in the near term due to this overstretched short position. "Should data or headlines surprise to the upside, safe heaven long are likely to see some unwind," said BarCap in its weekly FX note. The bank recommends to fade these possible temporary spikes. Traders also added heavily to their open long USD position as they increased their bets on the dollar rise by 25% from a week earlier to reach a net of $35.3 billion, according to the report. CFTC's data also showed that traders increased their open short CHF position by 30% from a week earlier to reach a net of $4.6 billion. They also decreased their open short JPY position by 47% to reach a net of $2.8 billion, the data showed.
