Re: Question about T-note data

Hi;
The bottom line answer of the Google search was extremely helpful.
However, an added short answer in simple language would have been most helpful
too, and may have got the asker 'over the hump'
Some of us on this list are on a much lower learning curve!! .. of trading, ...
at a point that all the advanced traders were at some time in the past.  We may
be markedly higher on the curve in other areas though.
Some of us get scared off  ... & wont ask what might be a stupid question.
This list is great, but sometimes intimidating.
I have seen several, learned participants leave in disgust.
The list traffic has suffered a great deal I suspect.
Simple questions left unanswered can stump me for days, weeks, months.
When others ask 'simple' questions I almost always learn from it & see things
from a different slant.
I have many simple questions I would love to ask, but don't as I fear being
humiliated.
So those of us way down on the curve struggle along as best we know how,  ..
hoping our 'know how' will somehow gradually
improve  .. and wait for indirect scraps of learning from others 'simple'
questions.
"Cast your bread upon the waters" What comes back is often nothing ... but
sometimes huge!
