How about !IRX - the CBOE short term index rate index. According to the CBOE description:
IRX is based on the discount rate of the most recently auctioned 13-week U.S. Treasury Bill. The new T-bill is substituted weekly on the trading day following its auction, usually a Monday. FVX, TNX and TYX are based on 10 times the yield-to-maturity on the most recently auctioned 5-year Treasury note, 10-year Treasury note and 30-year Treasury bond, respectively. LEAPS are long-dated options that expire in approximately two to three years from the date of initial listing. Options are European style exercise and are available in up to three near-term months followed by three additional months from the March quarterly cycle. LEAPS expire in December of the expiration year. It's not fed funds, but the shape of the chart is almost identical. Gary ----- Original Message ----- From: Harry M.

If you use your QP data in another program (Amibroker or Metastock, etc.), this is an easy indicator to add manually, since it changes so seldom. I have the Fed Funds rate set up manually for Metastock, and use Excel to just update it whenever the rate changes.
