SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Pricing bond futures and CTD assets to identify basis opportunities and delivery value.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pricing futures to identify the CTD and delivery basket, and to compute the basis against the cash bond.
  • Evaluate yield curve context and implied repo relationships to judge whether futures are rich or cheap.
  • Use in risk management and trade decision workflows to quantify basis, carry, and potential arbitrage opportunities.

Quick Start

Run the bond futures basis analysis workflow against a futures contract and its CTD basket to generate a basis report.

Frequently Asked Questions about bond-futures-basis

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I calculate bond futures basis and identify the cheapest-to-deliver?

You calculate basis by calling bond futures pricing functions against cash bond prices to determine the delivery value. This identifies the cheapest-to-deliver asset by measuring the gross basis across the delivery basket.

What is implied repo rate analysis in fixed-income trading?

Implied repo analysis evaluates yield curve relationships to judge whether bond futures are rich or cheap. It measures the embedded financing rate implied by selling a futures contract and buying the CTD cash bond.

How do I generate a bond futures basis report for trade decisions?

To generate a basis report, run the bond futures analysis workflow against a futures contract and its delivery basket. The output quantifies basis, carry, and potential arbitrage opportunities for trade decision workflows.

Can I use historical pricing summaries to evaluate bond basis opportunities?

Yes, you can use historical pricing summaries to evaluate bond basis opportunities. The analysis calls historical pricing data alongside interest rate and credit curves to compute basis metrics and delivery analysis.

When do I need bond futures basis analysis for risk management?

You need bond futures basis analysis in fixed-income risk management scenarios where you must measure basis, identify the cheapest-to-deliver, and evaluate implied repo relationships. It quantifies carry and potential arbitrage opportunities.
