Add You - My Experiences Trading U.S. Bonds and Interest Rate Commodity Futures Contracts and Options
Would you ask an unsuccessful person how to become more successful? Or ask a friend with a run-down car what the best vehicle is on the market? I would think not.So, it is suffice to say that you shouldn't ask a fellow retailer who is struggling with their business technology where to get software technology from. In more cases than one, you'll find they got software that didn't suit their needs, and have a retail service provider who isn't helping them succeed.Having the right technology is one thing. Having a good retail technology partner who knows retail and backed by an excellent support team is quite another. These two things go hand-in-glove.
A one-day US Bond contract move of three full points is probably the maximum that you will see. ($3,000 move per contract) This is a rare event usually caused by a big surprise from the Fed, the release of a government financial report or an unforeseen event.

TABLE OF CONTENTS1. The Security Consultant's Perspective...2. The Insider Threat...3. Threats by the Outsiders…4. The Terrorist Threat...5. Protective Measures...1) Security Consultant's Perspective...Traditional techniques at combating Workplace Violence pits the disgruntled employee against the system and the potential victims in a waiting game. It seems that the “Inside Threat” is reduced to monitoring the known potential, the “Ticking Bomb”, while the unknown threats go unmonitored. Threats by "Outsiders" are just as common and equally violent. Complicating this challenge, we now must grapple with the threat o
When it comes to trading interest rate futures, there's no market like US Bonds! It's the most liquid and has the best price swings of the interest rates group. US Bond futures contracts are also called the "long bond" or the "30-year bond, James Bond." Trailing behind are the ten year and five year note futures, though these have gained some popularity due to the real estate “bubble.”
The full-size US Bonds future contract contains $100,000 of bonds (par value) and is controlled with about $1300 of trading account margin money. Each full point move is equal to $1,000. The mini-contract is one-half the full-size contract and is better suited for the beginning trader. Trading is on the Chicago Board of Trade, a large and reputable commodity exchange. The liquidity is excellent and the volatility makes day trading popular for both advanced and novice traders alike. Because of this deep liquidity, "at the market" stop loss orders are usually triggered with a very little slippage.
A broker friend of mine swears by US Bond option strangle strategies. This is a popular technique selling (writing) both a put and call option outside a price range, looking for them to expire worthless. Option writers look to collect the option premiums from the option buyers. The option writers want the market to stay within a range of prices while the option buyers are speculating on a large move outside this range.

Food, Clothing and Shelter are amongst mankind’s greatest needs and this is where the Housing Authorities really come in handy in our civilization and yet so often they get a bad reputation and a bad rap in the public domain and media. Generally it is not deserved and you can imagine the issues trying to run such an organization.Keeping everyone happy, well that is just plain impossible, but keeping peace and still getting the job done satisfactorily should be a main goal indeed. A good public relations program can help with this process and it behooves housing authorities to tout their successes, address their challenges and get everyone on the same

What is the most effective form of advertising you can think of? If you said, “The Internet,” you are right - in terms of Return on Investment (ROI); but every effective form of advertising depends on good sales copy.In order to bring in unique visitors, your sales letter must be content rich.

A one-day US Bond contract move of three full points is probably the maximum that you will see. ($3,000 move per contract) This is a rare event usually caused by a big surprise from the Fed, the release of a government financial report or an unforeseen event. Since US T-Bond futures become most volatile around scheduled major reports, it's often wise to take your profits beforehand. Many reversals occur around these times.
The old trading adage, "first way, wrong way" means the first price reaction to a report is usually wrong. For example, a long awaited report comes out and the market immediately runs up. A few minutes later the professionals sell heavily into this rally and the market sells off sharply. This spells opportunity for sharp traders and potential losses to others.
US Treasury bond futures are presently traded electronically through the CBOT. This means you can get order fills almost instantaneously. The days of the screaming commodity pits may be limited.
Fed Fund futures trade the reverse of rates. For example, March Fed Funds futures at 95.00 would equate to traders expecting Fed fund rates to be 5% in March. (100%-95% = 5%)
The 30-year bond is one of the best indications of general interest rate direction. The trend of the fed fund rates is also key. Be sure to consider both US Bonds and Fed Funds trends in your general rates forecasts.
Treasury bonds tend to make double tops. Sell against double and triple tops when they present themselves. These long term tops don’t happen very often, so keep your eyes open. Triangles are also popular as well as head and shoulders formations. The bond market often trends well for long periods. Major multi-year government policies put these trends in motion. Fortunes can be made by accurately trading the bond market.
