Before I explain you what Treasury Futures are, let me explain you what Treasury Bonds are.
A 'Treasury Bond - T-Bond' is issued with a minimum denomination of $1,000.
The bonds are initially sold through auction in which the maximum purchase amount is $5 million if the bid is non-competitive or 35% of the offering if the bid is competitive.
These are issued by the U.
S.
Treasury and are the most actively traded and liquid instruments that you will ever find.
They are backed by the U.
S.
Treasury's ability to pay back the bondholders.
The demand for this product is global and during times of distress it is THE safe haven that is looked at by most institutions around the world.
Individuals, Companies, banks, and sovereign funds are all invested in it.
The Treasury futures market on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange trades futures contracts on those bonds and trades around 400,000 contracts on a daily basis.
All trades occur on the GLOBEX platform.
This platform is used by people around the world.
It is highly effective and efficient.
Buying 1 futures contract means buying one U.
S.
Treasury bond having a face value at maturity of $100,000.
Even though you are buying something worth $100,000, but you only put up $4185 for it.
That $4185 is margin money and is all you need to control something worth $100,000.
Each and every tick or movement so to speak in a bond contract is $31.
25.
or 1/32 of a point out of 32 ticks.
32 ticks is therefore, 31.
25*32 = $1000.
$1000 is 1 point in a bond.
As you can see, a lot of money exchanges hands everyday.
I have been following the treasury bond market for a while and believe that this is the best market in the world to trade in.
There is a lot of volume available and your trades will have the least slippage if you participate in this market.
I am actively involved in the treasury bonds futures market and believe I can help you invest more intelligently and therefore invite you to take a look at my website where I share more information.
If you are interested in taking better control of your finances then I urge you to consider taking a look.
Please remember when trading or investing in a market, that what you really need is a trading system to follow.
A trading system that allows to take trades in a mechanical, non emotional way and thus allows you to be rational when making very important investment decisions.
Let's face the facts here, you are making decisions regarding your hard earned money and that's why I want you to have the best tools available before putting your money at risk.
Please provide me an opportunity to help you out.
