    sell Mortimer sell, sold after number got jammed by that program trying to keep ZN over 117 then 15K trade down the next four minutes whew! We'll see if we can get over and stay over 4% I still think the range of 4 to 3.25% could be in effect like the spooz range of 875 to 950 when one moves...

    the spooz algo's don't let it move like the curve, sometimes I see 50K cars trade in spooz and it goes from 29.50 to 27.25 that sucks when that many treasuries trade you get total chaos. yesterday I think was convexity selling on the long end. At least with spooz the most you will lose is...

    Anybody else short US 30 Bond

    the market has moved 6 handles up from 93 ish in cash (ZN from 112.25 to 119) to almost 99 handle which is a move from 4.01 to about 3.25% (98.28+) unless the world looks like it is going to fall apart again I really do not see the tens moving so far under 3% yield. 122-128 is quite a far...

    CQG is the best charting software that most professional traders in Chicago and elsewhere use, that is unless you work for a bank and get handed trades by the desks...has two different cash feed options either Brokertech (ICAP) or ESpeed (BGC). If you see Tullet or Garban that is great but not...

    Anybody else short US 30 Bond

    30 cash usually 4-5 ticks wide sometimes it is 6-10 ticks wide for hours at a time (during US session) I can't imagine what is looks like during your hours, totally useless. I would try 10 yr cash better indicator. 30 yr cash has been $hit for a while now and there are very few players these...

    Anybody else short US 30 Bond

    sorry just letting off some steam - no worries and yes I have been frustrated not losing $ but not making $ so violent with so much size and a lot of moves seem to go past my tolerance for pain.

    as I said before no one give a $hit about about what you talk- big paper big games just get some and get out, this market has told us us no one knows what is going on if you think you do with your swiggle lines and Doji's goodluck. Ride the wave or get F$%ked!
