5-day change in total futures contracts open — falling = positions being closed. Daily.

Capital flowing in or out of commodity ETFs (e.g. SLV, GLD) — net inflows typically reflect institutional investor conviction.
Conviction

Note: for AGRICULTURE this is a SEASONAL comparison — it ranks only against the same point in the year across prior years (±5 calendar weeks), not against all past readings.
