im going to look like a dunce if this thing hits 113'00 before i get a chance to get any refills on the short side
Treasuries declined after the government auctioned $6 billion of 20-year inflation-indexed securities to yield 2.219%, higher than the most recently-issued securities had been trading before the auction closed. Demand seemed lackluster as investors bid for 1.58 times the amount of debt for sale, the lowest so-called bid-to-cover rate since January 2006. Buying by indirect bidders, a class of investors which includes foreign central banks, was the lowest since January 2005.
Thanks NB! On another note.....I noticed the Pit traded chart is a waste of time, is the Pit traded ZB volume actually that anemic? This seems recent on the Pit chart vs a Globex chart. el surdo
Why do I only have 13 data points on my USU08.p chart? I am aware of the CME website and volume listings. I have a few strategies that run on RTH not 24 hour globex, this is why I am asking, I created my own custom session using GLOBEX data during RTH.
whoa you guys seen the 30 year today? jeez I think i need to move all my short entries to 117 hell maybe even 119
That was a huge move. My experience is, after big rallies like this, you get a day or two of follow through, at least. Of course, it's all up to the equity markets. bond traders can't think for themselves. lol new home sales could give a lift too.
well dang, that was another huge move I only captured from 115 to 114'15 short but better than a loss! Missed my short entry at 115'15 by '05 DOH then chased it all the way down to 115 to get an entry (Like a doofus) will try re-enter yet again short at 115 with more orders at 117 and 119
