    Spread trading newbie has questions.

    I use TT and I enable implied pricing for the individual leg instruments. You will almost always get a tighter bid/ask spread with much more volume liquidity in the spread as compared to the outrights. It's true for CME Eurodollars and it's true for ICE Brent Crude. Most of the volume in...

    The Fed has done astonishingly well (performance wise) with their balance sheet and I could envision them selling Treasuries and rolling the proceeds into the Repo Market lending facilities - which would provide both collateral and liquidity into the primary and secondary markets.

    How long before news is fully priced in?

    Your assumption that news and information releases are bilateral and "fair" is quite flawed. You really need to consider that quite a bit (but not all) of news and data is not new 'news' for big players like Commercials. Hedge Funds spend hundreds of millions every year for private industry...

    How long before news is fully priced in?

    The last price print is the distillation of everything known - publicly and privately, about the instrument in question. Time frame is meaningless in this respect. Very big traders (especially Commercials) will frequently use a number or data release and contrary spec order flows to get into...
