Speculative positioning in the Nasdaq 100 has strengthened notably, according to the latest Commitments of Traders data from the CFTC, updated on 20 February 2026. Net speculative positions in the Nasdaq 100 rose to 24.4K contracts, up from 13.4K previously.

The sharp increase in net longs suggests a clear tilt toward bullish sentiment among speculative traders, who appear to be positioning for further upside in the U.S. tech-heavy index.
