Default Yield Curve

Does anyone know where I can find a continually updated yield curve for European interest rates with regards to trading the Bund?

The best source for fixed income by far.

And as it's an HTML page you can even use a web query to import it into Excel and have it update dynamically there. Not sure you would actually need a bloomberg terminal itself unless you're doing something more complicated than outrights and a few spreads imho. People get all excited about it and end up not using 1% of the functionality they're paying for (and it ain't cheap).

I've just got one at work so was thinking about using it for some spreads- I've had a look at the commitment of traders report and put call ratio. I wondered if there was anything more useful (or guaranteeing profit!)for long term spreads in financials or other futures

cheers

Default calculating yields

This may seem like a silly question.


But does anyone know how to calculate the yield from the actual market tick data?

PS I trade the Bund
