I knew you'll like it :)
ZB caught down to JPY somewhat in Friday's session. Unfortunately I traded them separately, not how I planned in the beginning. Good new - I've...

I'm short index futures, yen and some other futures. Going to short 30y bond, and idea behind that is the divergence between JPY and ZB (ZB is...
1245, thanks for the information. I probably just need to talk to IB and get all the details.
