Hi

I was wandering is someone trade this spreads 2y5y10y Fly and the 5y10y30y fly and also if he can help me a little bit with the ratios.

I do not know if is better to make it in base of the volatility or in base of CME Implied Treasury Spread ratios.

Sorry for asking this stupid questions but i am trading the Meat and Ag markets

Thanks

greg
 
Traditionally, it's done w/ weights that make the position DV01 neutral.

Currently, for TU/FV/TY (aka ZT/ZF/ZN) fly: 61/100/32
For FV/TY/US (aka ZF/ZT/ZB) fly: 78/100/27
For FV/TY/WN (aka ZF/ZT/UB) fly: 78/100/16

All in lots, based on current prices and spot DV01s.

Well, if you search in some of my prior posts in this particular forum, you'll find the few books/papers that I have always recommended. Also, I think there's a PDF attachment from Eurex in one of them that may prove useful.

As to the number of lots, 100 lots of the belly was just a nice round number for purposes of illustration. You can and should scale it according to your own risk appetite.
