Dutch Power (ICE Endex) Positioning

Dutch Power (ICE Endex) positioning comes from the weekly MiFID II Article 58 position report that the trading venue files and ESMA republishes in its register, which splits open interest into investment funds, investment firms and credit institutions, other financial institutions, commercial undertakings and operators with compliance obligations. It shows who holds the open interest each week and which way they lean, the EU counterpart of the CFTC's Commitments of Traders report.

What drives Dutch Power (ICE Endex) positioning

Gas-fired plants remain a large part of Dutch generation, so the TTF gas price runs straight through the Dutch power curve. Offshore wind and solar keep growing and add weather swings to a fuel-driven market. The Netherlands exports power to Germany and Belgium, which links Dutch positioning to its neighbours. Commercial undertakings are generators, suppliers and energy-intensive industry, while investment funds express views on gas costs, wind output and cross-border flows.

How to read Dutch Power (ICE Endex) positioning

Read Dutch Power (ICE Endex) positioning against its own history: where the investment-fund net sits in its 52-week and 3-year range, and whether commercial hedgers lean the other way. Check TTF gas positioning when Dutch power hits an extreme, because the fuel link can drive both books at once.

This page covers Dutch baseload power on ICE Endex, the venue that also lists the benchmark TTF gas future. The sibling Dutch Power (EEX) page tracks the same delivery on another exchange, and reading both shows whether a shift is shared across venues or confined to one book.
