    hey guys -

    Could someone help me with putting on putting on curve trades on IB. Say 2/10s in gilts or usts.

    do you do the two legs independently or is it best to do through TUB / TUT etc. (do similar products exist for gilts?)

    do you have to roll the future yourself or does IB automatically do this for you?

    what is the $ move per tick for TUB / TUT etc and for the futures ?
