Bearish bets on 10-year Treasury futures 1043602NNET fell to 848,191 contracts from 865,065, the data showed.
Treasuryyields have risen this month after a much stronger-than-expected U.S. jobs report for September led traders to adjust for the likelihood of less dovish Federal Reserve policy.
Rising expectations that Donald Trump will win the Nov. 5 U.S. presidential election has added to the move higher in yields.
Net short bets on five-year note futures 1044601NNET grew to 1,640,987 contracts from 1,630,024.
Bearish positions on U.S. bonds 1020601NNET increased to 73,837 contracts from 60,178.
