Bond market timing rules
Rules can automatically adjust bond duration based on Federal Reserve policy signals and yield curve movements. When rates rise, the system can shift toward shorter duration bonds. When rates fall, it can extend duration to capture price appreciation.
Multi-broker bond discovery
The engine searches bond inventories across multiple brokers simultaneously finding the best available yields and credit quality for your criteria while maintaining diversification across issuers and sectors.

Short-term treasury automation can replace traditional savings accounts by automatically rolling T-bills at maturity. The system monitors auction results and can bid on new issues or purchase secondary market bills based on yield comparisons. This creates a higher-yielding cash equivalent with government backing.
For qualified investors, the platform can scan high yield corporate bonds for distressed opportunities or fallen angels. Rules can identify bonds trading below intrinsic value due to temporary liquidity issues rather than fundamental credit problems. Risk controls ensure appropriate position sizing.
When trading international bonds, currency hedging rules can automatically adjust foreign exchange exposure based on volatility and correlation patterns. The system can hedge currency risk entirely or maintain partial exposure based on your risk tolerance and market outlook.
Advanced strategies can use treasury futures to adjust portfolio duration without selling underlying bonds. This allows tactical duration positioning while maintaining specific bond holdings for income purposes. Futures positions can be automatically sized based on portfolio duration targets.
TIPS and I-bonds can be automatically purchased based on inflation expectations and breakeven rates. The system compares real yields to nominal yields and can shift allocation between inflation-protected and conventional bonds based on inflation forecasts and market pricing.
Systematic rebalancing maintains target allocations across duration, credit quality, and sector exposures as market values change. The platform generates detailed reports showing yield to maturity, duration, and credit exposure changes over time. Performance attribution helps identify which rules and strategies contribute most to portfolio returns.
