Hi there,
You've gone down an excellent route of disavowing them having said that the things to consider if the following :
Have you dropped in the rankings?
This is more the case of why you're loosing traffic which is part the the negative SEO, you wouldn't loose traffic from just links alone although you may find a higher bounce rate.
Have you had a penalty? If not you are at least staying on top.
Have you compared your self to last year?
If you look at July you could say the same thing there was a dip in July is that negative SEO or is it just a seasonal drop? Depending on your site there are seasonal dips in nearly all sites it could jsut be a dip.
Keep up with disavowing and removing links other than that not much you can do, remember while you may be getting hit with negative SEO at least your competitors may be loosing out by spending time and effort on you and not them selves.
there are some great resources on Moz -
