To All, Typically, I trade puts and calls on T-Bond futures. This time I decided to use the T-Bond rate puts as I was putting them in my IRA. Folks, this contract is like watching paint dry. From 5.93% to 5.73% and now back up, the bid to offer has moved glacially. Although I am still confident I will make money on these, there is no pizzazz in this contract and I recommend avoiding them. The futures calls are simply more liquid and more volatile.
