what kind of yield data are you looking for? (yield curves, interest rate derivatives etc) and on what instruments? You could try other financial news sites such as thompson reuters for general yield info on treasuries...Pick up the wall street journal and look into the markets and investing section there is a ton of fixed rate instruments documented there along with fx & commodities...hope that helps somewhat

U can see a price chart of 30yr paper at Broco mt4 but not the yield,... could be a way to derive yield from price.

Other ways are maybe to pay for it or perhaps ask someone at Fxlive.

CindyXXXX, they have probably quoted the value to which the treasury yield has gone to, not the amount it has risen. Bloomberg, Reuters and all other sites that offer qoutes of yields can be found by a google search, as easy as that. The only difference between the sites is the way they present the data, some offer charts, some offer only figures,etc. I hope you understand me.
Anyway, journalist sometimes write things not because they have meaningful value, but because they have to write something, that's their job. It's very important to distinguish the facts from the opinions.

Yeah i saw them too and that's pretty much all u need for US yields.

Are u thinking about trading UJ looking at yields directly? It could work maybe but i guess u would need a better feed than Yahoo's.

P.S: Why do u have to put an Extra S in my name every time u address me. lol

Ah sorry Nasir I'm a shocking speller and even worse with names. The only reason i get it wtong all the time is because Nasir isn't in the spell checker lol I will remember now!

No not looking to trade uj, other pairs are affected by the yields too, I just noticed something 2 days ago and took advantage of an opportunity on one of the cross pairs based on bad us yield data and it perked my interest

It's just another area that I have never paid any attention to before and so don't know a whole about it
