  3. I use OpenECry but I wouldn't recommend them. I also wouldn't recommend trading US debt.....those contracts have gotten to be a joke as of late. I would recommend eurex.

    Good Luck man

  6. I am not touching this till stocks open we have Indus Prod. at 9:15am eastern also, just waiting for more tape bombs! That being said I would rather buy dips in curve till credit issues are out of the way. TY looks like spooz 30 yr looks like YM! But it looks like people are selling everything this morning that is a US product! Treasuries, Equities, etc..

    Thanks for your responses.


    Much appreciated.


    Youngtrader, I'd like to get more of your thoughts regarding the transition of the 30 year bond futures (to being a "joke" - as you said). Always thought it was seriously liquid (to be clear - I would only be trading the day sessions).

    Anyway, I will check back with you in a day or two - I know today may be too crazy for chatting on ET.

    Hope the volatility treats you guys well.

    Good luck

    Go back and look backwards in history - check volume before the 30 yr was discontinued, then look at volume while it was dicontinued, then look at volume when it was re-institued and now look at volume with the initiation of 1/64 ticks.


    They done ruined it!!
