Could anyone please recommend site(s)or book(s) that gives a good definitions of each futures contract and the relevant indexes. I already have a fairly good understand of all the major contracts and indexes but require more information about some of the specifics.

For example: What are the exact differences between.

ZB U.S. Treasury Bonds, 30-year - Project A session
US U.S. Treasury Bonds, 30-year
30-year Treasury Bond Index
30-year Treasury Bond Index Settlement

I don't need answer to this question....but any site/book recommendations would be great. I have found that CME,CBOT,etc. don't do a very good job explain each of the contracts, although they do tell you the size, date, times, etc., etc.,. Most of the futures books or sites that I have read only talk about the basics and fail to mention the specifics that I have been looking for.

Also...I have read numerous books on TA and Murphy's book on Intermarket Technical Analysis. Could anyone recommend any good books/sites similar to Murphy's Intermarket book that go really in depth into intermarket/intercontract/index TA (e.g comparing bonds/S&P/commodities/, etc.). I found Murphy's book informative but was hoping there was something a little more technical out there that I have missed.

Thanks for any responses in advance.

Best Regards
KEITH

Thanks, Henry! Not ready yet...but made me scramble to find out where: Schwab website has trading in treasuries. And Schwab has a relationship with Lind-Waldock.
