  1. How to Short German 5y Gov Bond yield on IB’s platform?

    European Fixed Income ETFs are so poor (low liquidity, higher SBL rates sometimes above 2%, not available located shares to short, fragment market, hard to find info – factsheets about them)

    Your suggestions?

    Futures : look for the FGBM contract (Eurex). These are bond prices so they are inversely correlated to the yield. If you want to bet on the yield going down, you should go long the bonds.
