Hi Def, Thanks for your reply. I'll look into it a bit more and PM you at some point. Does IB plan to offer Taiwan single stocks (TWSE) and index futures (TAIFEX) anytime soon? I think if IB had that capacity I would definitely consider throwing a lot more business in that direction.

I'm a prop trader in HK as well, was in SG previously. Do any of you do decent volume in SGX futures? I wouldn't mind pooling up with some like-minded people and reducing comm/getting a membership. Do you guys use data centres in Chicago or do you run it from HK? Don't you find latency to be...
