Learn what the official Managed Money category covers and how to compare its commodity positioning across time.
Official definition
Managed Money includes registered commodity trading advisers, commodity pool operators and unregistered funds identified by the CFTC as managing and conducting organized futures trading for clients.
How to compare it
Use changes, zero crossings, open-interest shares and rolling percentiles within the same contract. Managed Money is not the TFF Leveraged Funds category and their histories are never joined.
