FX.co ★ Speculators Trim Bullish Peso Bets as CFTC MXN Net Longs Edge Down

Speculative positioning in the Mexican peso saw a slight pullback, according to the latest data from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) released on 10 April 2026. Net speculative positions in MXN futures slipped to 57.5K contracts, down marginally from the previous level of 57.7K.

The modest decline suggests that while investors remain broadly constructive on the peso, some market participants may be locking in profits or reducing exposure amid shifting global risk sentiment or evolving rate expectations. Despite the small reduction, positioning still reflects a relatively strong net long stance, indicating continued underlying confidence in Mexico’s currency from speculative traders.
