TradingView has added Bonds.com live two-sided quotations to its fixed-income charts. The 14 October announcement covers US Treasuries, sovereign bonds from nearly 100 countries and a broad range of corporate bonds. Users can now see a displayed bid and ask, the midpoint between them and a calculated yield, extending fixed-income screening beyond a last recorded price.[1]
A two-sided quotation shows the price a dealer indicates for buying and selling; it can provide a more current reference than an old transaction print. The difference between the sides is the quoted spread. It does not, on its own, establish the price or size available through an investor’s broker.[1][2]
How to find and read the data
TradingView says users can search by bond name or ISIN and identify the feed by the BONDSCOM: prefix. Its bond screener also offers Bonds.com as a Source filter. The feed runs through Asian, European and US sessions on trading days.[1]
What a displayed bond quotation tells you
| Point | Documented position | Practical interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Bid | Price at which a quoting party proposes to buy | A client selling may face different size or dealer conditionsSource 1Source 2 |
| Ask | Price at which a quoting party proposes to sell | A client buying may face extra commissions or settlement costsSource 1Source 2 |
| Midpoint | Arithmetic reference between the displayed sides | Not a stand-alone fillable orderSource 1Source 2 |
| Calculated yield | Analytical value linked to price and terms | Depends on the particular bond and yield conventionSource 1Source 2 |
The midpoint is derived from the bid and ask, so it is a reference price rather than a third trade. Yield is also an analytical output tied to the bond’s price and terms. Comparing bonds therefore still requires attention to maturity, coupon and the yield convention used.[1]
The addition, announced on 14 October, is most useful for observing reference prices and spreads across securities. A widening spread can prompt closer investigation of market depth, but it cannot by itself establish a default or show the price at which an entire portfolio could be sold.[1][2]
