COT - Multicharts

[alexbellinzona]

Hello,

I would like to have COT data in my Multicharts. Does anyone know how could I do it?

Thanks

Something similar was done with economic events.
I'll bet getting the COT data will use a similar approach.

It's not trivial, but definitely doable.

You are welcome.
BTW: Quandl.com has the COT data....but good luck finding the symbols you are interested in.

Quandl has an API you can use within Multicharts to access this data programmatically.
