If you know the CUSIP or ISIN for the fixed income security in question, simply type it into an empty line in the TWS to check its trading status or availability. Additionally, you can pull up a list of sovereign bonds and check their trading status or availability by typing a country's abbreviation (ie, "MX" for Mexico, "DE" for Germany, "HU" for Hungary, etc) into an empty line in TWS, pressing enter, and choosing "Government Fixed Income" on the menu that comes up.
Please Note
- If you do not see any quotes for a particular bond, it is most likely that our Bond ECN's (Liquidity Providers) do not quote or make markets in that bond.
