Monday, December 7, 2020

The Small Exchange , a futures exchange offering smaller, simpler products aimed toward retail customers, has launched Small Treasury Yield (S10Y) futures - the first product to afford customers the ability to trade treasury futures in yield not price.

Key Points: 
  • The Small Exchange , a futures exchange offering smaller, simpler products aimed toward retail customers, has launched Small Treasury Yield (S10Y) futures - the first product to afford customers the ability to trade treasury futures in yield not price.
  • S10Y follows the 10-Year U.S. Treasury Yield, the most quoted interest rate in the US.
  • Small Treasury Yield futures simplify variables in an otherwise complex asset class down to a single, succinct interest rate so traders can skip the calculations that translate yield to price.
  • We believe the Small 10YR US Treasury Yield is a true differentiator in the futures space, and nothing like this is available for traders in the equity or ETF world, said Don Roberts, the Small Exchange President and CEO.
