Fourth Month: A Revolution in Off Screen Trading

Traditionally, major TBA trading technologies have provided screen pricing for three settlement months: the front, mid, and back months. Transactions outside of these standard months, such as the fourth month, have been infrequent by comparison. The absence of a ticker for fourth month trades has led to a lack of definitive price transparency. Traders have had to rely on a combination of roll cost calculations in standard settlements and alternative methods to determine whether the prices they are receiving are equitable.

To improve transparency for fourth-month securities, Agile has introduced competitive electronic bidding for the fourth month. While the fourth month still lacks a ticker, traders can now access pricing on these securities from multiple dealers simultaneously. This development promotes a better understanding of where fourth month securities are trading and enables more informed decisions on whether they are priced attractively relative to standard TBA security settlements.
