It is more sensitive to certain economic reports and trades differently than other markets, just a total different personality.<\/div>\n<div>The tick size on the ZB is 1\/32 or $31.50 per one point\/ tick.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I included some contract specs on the T Bonds futures below as well as an intra-day chart for your review.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The 10 yr notes or the ZN are very similar to the 30 yr except it does trade in half points, so minimum fluctuation is $15.625 and the 10 years will have smaller moves than the 30 yr although 99% in the same direction ( opens the door for spread trading on a daytrading basis).<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>If you like to have access to the trading signals like shown in the chart below,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cannontrading.com\/tools\/intraday-futures-trading-signals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">click on the get started now.<\/a><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>30 yr Treasury Bond Futures Specs<\/div>\n<div>Hours: 05:00 PM previous day to 4:00 PM Central Time<\/div>\n<div>Margins: $2530 initial, $2300 Maint.
