Quote from jones247:

I figure that I'll have time on my side... interest rate simply cannot remain this low forever... the moment any rumors about the Fed pulling back on monthly mortgage purchases, rates should rise...

I hope that I will have the patience to hold on to my short ZB position for the next 3 - 6 months, if that's what it takes...

I have to agree with SwanNoir, I think you are hoping... I mean... if you see things impacting you short term, trade that short term, while maintaining a long term trade on.. use the back months... minimize that loss.. all that I will say... for whatever is worth...
