Excuse me, could you please clarify what a cot chart is? I've come across this term in the world of 
cryptocurrency and finance, but I'm not entirely sure of its significance or purpose. Is it a specific type of chart used for tracking market trends, or does it serve a different function? Any insight you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

    The Commitment of Traders (COT) reports are a vital tool in understanding the dynamics of commodity markets. They offer a detailed breakdown of open interest for markets with significant trader involvement.

    Additionally, COT charts are updated every Friday at 3pm Central Time. These charts visually represent the changes in open interest and the positioning of traders over time.
