XAU/USD sentiment FAQ

Quick answers about average vs broker sentiment and how to read the gauge.

What does the gauge show?
The gauge shows the average percentage of traders who are long (buy) on this pair. Short is calculated as 100 − Long.
How do I interpret bullish/bearish bias here?
This page uses a contrarian interpretation: when the crowd is very long (over 60%), bias is labeled bearish; when the crowd is very short (below 40% long), bias is labeled bullish. The middle zone is neutral.
Why does each broker show different values?
