EurexUS T-Bonds

[Sahil]

Is anyone trading Treasuries on Eurex?

If so, what is liquidity like and speed of system. Is it as good as CBOT?

Location of where you trade from will also be handy.

What is the benefit of EurexUS over eCBOT?

The liquidity isn't there, so there had better be some damn good reasons.

Can you spread off US T-B's vs Eurex Bunds/Bobl? If not, then I guess CBOT will win the battle as you can on their platform (Connect) I believe.

I'm sure you can. You can also cross-margin on Eurex; I guess u could on CBOT too once they start their German Bonds. Makes sense for only one to eventually dominate in both; or they'll stay as they are in their repective locals.

I was just wandering if anyone is trading in these early days on EurexUS.

Doesn't look like it judging by the volume.

I think it's catch22. Neither of us will join the market until we see more liquidity...
