WHY TRADE YIELD FUTURES?
Trade in yield
Contracts directly reference a well-known U.S. Treasury market metric: yields of recently auctioned (on the run) Treasury securities.
Access four major benchmarks
Trade the four most-watched curve points: 2-Year Notes, 5-Year Notes, 10-Year Notes and 30-Year Bonds, anchored by BrokerTec U.S. Treasury benchmarks.
Easier spread trading
All four contracts are sized at a constant BPV of $10/basis point of yield (0.01%), making it easier to spread trade.
Enjoy the flexibility of a Micro contract
Small BPV enables a low-cost alternative to other offerings and brings more flexibility to how active traders manage interest rate exposure.
