>>do you know of a leveraged play on the long side of bond ?<<

You can trade options on the TYX index which is the long bond's interest rate. Not exactly the bond itself, bt the effect of the 30 yr bond. Just remember that the TYX moves opposite the bond so if you are long the bond, you expect the TYX to drop so you want puts, if you are short the Bond, then the TYX will go up so you want calls.

Good Luck,

Lee
