Euro Bund coverage & file size, timeframe by timeframe
Every Euro Bund timeframe shares the same 2016-05-02 start date, but not the same scale — coarser candles stay small while tick and intraday files grow fast. Current through 2026-09-17:

Working with the Euro Bund series
The Euro Bund tracks the 10-year German government bond future — remember the price-yield inversion: rising prices mean falling yields. This series starts in 2016, deep in the negative-yield era, and its defining stretch is 2022, when Bund yields went from below zero to well above two percent — the fastest euro-era repricing and one of the worst bond drawdowns on record. A backtest fitted on the placid 2016-2021 segment has seen only half the market's character. Continuous-future rolls apply.
