What are the fees for QuantHouse? I couldn't find a listing of fees at their website, just some information about a demo and how to contact them.

I think for you in New Zealand, the US market closes at 5 AM your time. You then have three hours to eat breakfast or whatever before the Australian market opens at 8:00 AM.

From 4 PM EST to 7PM EST. That's after the US close and prior to the open in Australia.

According to the IB person I spoke to about moving my taxable account to the HK server, she said that the IB simulation account associated with my taxable account would also move to HK server. So I presume that my "paper server" is currently hosted on the IB US server. There's a twelve hour...

I found this in another thread: ping IB's US server using ping gw1.ibllc.com and ping IB's HK server using ping gw1.ibllc.com.hk My ping for the US server averages 213 ms, while my ping for the HK server averages 73 ms. I've already submitted an order ticket to have my taxable account moved...

From the above link: I see I'm not the only one that finds Hussman's commentary to be of no practical value. If you want to be scared out of the market, read Chicken Little, er, Hussman. If you want to make money, read something else.

Here's a link to the blog entry I mentioned: http://m100.marketocracy.com/rmcduff_RMG1/6journal/

Cancel them. The Wall Street Urinal is garbage.

In the TWS, you can enter a MOC order to buy the stock that you want, and attach a GAT market sell order that is good after the close during regular trading hours. The result should be that the TWS will buy the stock that you want at the close, and sell it in the next trading session at the open.

A market GAT order will close the position after a specific time that you set, for example, five minutes before the close. A GTD order will cancel a pending order after a specific time you set, for example thirty minutes before the close.

How do you decide to initially enter the market? Randomly, at a particular time, or based on some relationship between the securities being spread-traded? What do you use for stops? It is possible for both sides of the spread to go against you.

I think SCMagic (http://www.scmagic.org/English/Index.htm) has the data that you're looking for: Available futures in 1min time frame...HSI starting 02/06/2003

Wouldn't it be possible to hedge the risk with options on futures? Short the yen in the cash market and then buy calls on future contracts for delivery of yen.

premiumdata.net has daily Kospi data. I don't know if it goes back to 1996.
