US 10 year Notes : Long

  • Margin account still funded to slightly over minimal account opening level only. Still in Saxo evaluation stage and do not want to risk too much. As a result, not really practical to trade ES (high IMR) as I usually like to run a core position + trade multiple contracts around it.
  • Have thus taken profit on short ESZ1 last night.
  • Instead, initiated long ZNH2 (=globex version of TY) at 129-25. ES and ZN highly correlated currently.
  • Chart here is for continuation contract (=Dec11 now). Will add to long on a break of 131-00 for ZNc1 = 130-09 for ZNH2.
  • [IMR for ES = US$5000; IMR for ZN = US$2160]
