A.Most Traded Government Bonds. B.Cash or Futures. C.24H?

Dear All,

Goodday.

A. May i know which are the most traded government bonds?

I have the following list. Would someone be kind enough to fill in 7 to 10?
1. US 2 yr T note
2. US 5 yr T note
3. Us 10 yr T note
4. US T bond
5. German Bund
6. UK Gilt
7.
8.
9.
10.

B. Investors/traders usually trade in the underlying or futures bonds?

C. If i am not mistaken, the US 2,5,10 yr T note and T bonds are the only ones that are traded almost 24 hours, whereas others like German Bund and UK Gilt only trades during normal hours?

Thank you.

I hope this helps.
 
Many traders keep on the 10 year (ZN) since stock prices are influenced by iit. The Fed & central banks are active at times in it. It i the most liquid instrument on the planet.

I like the Ultra bond (UB) as well with it's big price ranges and lower cost to trade in relation to its price ranges.
