Speculative traders have increased their bullish exposure to the euro, with CFTC EUR speculative net positions rising to 41.3K as of 24 April 2026, up from 26.0K previously. The data points to a solid build-up in net long positions, suggesting growing confidence in the single currency among leveraged funds and other speculative participants.
The move from 26.0K to 41.3K represents a notable shift in positioning rather than a marginal adjustment, indicating that traders are more decisively backing the euro in the current environment. Market participants will be watching upcoming macroeconomic releases and policy signals from the European Central Bank to assess whether this momentum in speculative positioning can be sustained in the weeks ahead.
