PyPI version License: MIT Weekly Downloads Monthly Downloads Downloads

pycot is a easy to use python library for interacting with the CFTC Commitment of Traders reports.

Installation

Requirements

  • pandas
  • requests

How to use

from pycot import reports

df = reports.legacy_report(report_type="legacy_fut", contract_name=("FED FUNDS - CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE", "30-DAY FEDERAL FUNDS - CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE"))

How do I get cached results?

If you want to retrieve data from the same report multiple times, you can use the cot_report function. This will cache the results of the previous function call.

Lets have a look at an example:

from pycot.reports import cot_report, legacy_report

fed_funds_contract = ("FED FUNDS - CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE", "30-DAY FEDERAL FUNDS - CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE")
fed_funds_df = cot_report(legacy_report(), fed_funds_contract)  # will load the full report (~ 10-15 seconds)

bbg_contract = ("BBG COMMODITY - CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE", "BLOOMBERG COMMODITY INDEX - CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE")
bbg_df = cot_report(legacy_report(), bbg_contract)  # cached, will not load the full report again

Report Types

Legacy Report (All Contracts)

from pycot.reports import legacy_report
contract_name = ("FED FUNDS - CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE", "30-DAY FEDERAL FUNDS - CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE")
df = legacy_report("legacy_fut", contract_name)
