    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    Def, Thank you for the quick responses. I found that 750 yen charge for TSE. That is 7 bucks and change. My oh my how fees have dropped. Most folks reading this will thank 7 a side for any commission is high. And it is in comparison. But I remember when Jgb's were like 50 bucks round...

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    Def, The mini Jgp's have what I call deceptive liquidity cuz they are arbed heavily. There is always a tight market. Jgb's on Tse are fantastic. The desk I traded for avoided them cuz of the revolting fee structure back in the day. We always took the business to Singapore. TSE is where...

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    Def, Good show. You guys have alot of products to traffic in on! One thing about SGX. They trade JGB's (Japanese Govt bond futures) and they are liquid. They now have minis which are 1/10 the full and you get good fills on them. You guys should offer these. They are great movers...

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    The full size is not too big for most traders. The hang seng mini is small that is why it does not have much open interest. The full size hang seng is just right. It does move tho! In fact it is way more bang for your buck compared to the Nickei on simex. Def, Is IB going to offer...

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    Kind of odd. I just checked. It is 1/5th and is ILLEGAL for US citizens to trade! Gee trad'em and go to jail! The Hang Seng itself is more liquid. 100k open interest in the Dec. full size hang seng. Not even 1/10th of that in the mini.

    EurexUS, will it work?

    http://www.eurexus.com/products/FTBX.html I was talking bonds. I know what the tick value for the 10 years are. I trade enough of those! However, I have yet to execute a trade on Eurex USA. I may move some bonds over there. They are trading halfs!!! Cbot trades bonds at 1/32 and Eurex...

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    I have never daytraded the Hang Seng--only positon. But it DOES fly. It is a big mover. I prefer it to the NK on Simex. If you do position trade the hangseng. Make sure you got some dough in your account. It is the KING of gaps! The hang seng has a mini! It is 1/10th I believe. I have...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    McCurto, EurexUSA will survive. They are not exactly your typical startup! They have Eurex bankrolling them and they are going to trade Eurex products through them. Also, if you read the press announcements you will see that CME is going to move up the MINI spoo protocols from 400 contract...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    The CME is pissed at this. I have heard that they do not feel threatened. However, they are coming up with a response to make sure market share does not go to EurexUSA. This is what I have been waiting for. No matter what happens with EurexUSA. This should drop fees at the CME. Unless...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    I need to check out the LLC. A lease is fine for me. However, I should have bought a seat back in the day. I cleared globex for 40 cents back in the day when I was prop (self clearing). No one could believe how low we got it. With that said. I was just bitching on saturday evening. I...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    Futurestrader71, That is good to hear. I heard EurexUS is going to roll out a Russell 1000 to compete with the spoo? That makes sense to me. Wish they would roll it out sooner tho. The CME is milking my ass on fees. I could give a hoot if it is liquid etc on the Eurex USA. The threat...

    tampa's Revenge

    LOL. Linda is still at it. If you want to read a book by a very successfull trader who uses the 3/10-16 correctly. Read Tradingdaybyday. It has only been out a year. I first became acquainted with Linda 10 years ago. Chick Goslin (the writer of Tradingdaybyday) straightened my trading...
