Hi Lisa,..Re:<< Bond Options >>

Can you give me the root symbol
Links for CBOT symbols are
cbot.com
Commodity symbols

But BMI uses the month code and just the underlying year and future, i.e. for a July '98 121 bond put the symbol is US8NP12100, Signal uses the same without the trailing 2 zeros.

I haven't had any problems with liquidity. You can decide from the following URL:
cbot.com
Final Volume/Open Interest for June 3

This is something I've done fairly regularly since '94 and very regularly over the past year.

I only do options on futures.

Regards,

Lee
