Hang Seng guys were probably on vacation, Maybe they had done too well in the first season of 2007. :-)

Thanks for the infomation. BUt I do not have business with city group, I am in china and it seems that Bric note is not available here.

I am a Chinese, but my base currency in IB account is HKD, whose forex rate is locked with USD. USD depreciates fast against RMB ( Chinese currency ) , so I need to hedge.

Well, first I have to admit, I am not a forex trader. I am a futures trader and have USD as the base currency of my trading account. But as USD is depreciating against all major currencies, I want to diversify the currency I am holding . Can you forex veterans advise me which currencies to...

Don't know what you mean

Well, if I am counting right. This is the 7th measure that the government pushed out to cool down the stock market. I have confidence in our government's ability of creating bull/bears in the domestic market, but will it be the last straw ? Wait and see.

Yes, I know this STW and trade it sometimes. But it seems this symbol is not popular among local Taiwan people, which is a problem for me. I hope be able to trade the local one.

Thanks Oldtrader, I'll check the site.

Thanks for the information. I never know IB give customer's cash a 5.051% annual rate. ( In China, usually you get close to zero interest for any money in your futures trading account) I will search IB site for the related details. Now I have some idea why every morning I find some more...

Thanks guys for your clarification. Oldtrader, you mentioned T-bills. I have one further question about T-bills. Currently part of the money not used as margin exists as cash in my IB accounts. If I buy T-bills, will this bring me more interest gains than the interest that IB is paying to...

Well , I have a personal ranking of InteractiveBrokers in my trading blog today : http://blog.sina.com.cn/shanghaitrader :D

See the list attached. I am curious why IB ranked so low in this list ? My impression is that IB should be way up in this ranking list. Is this due to the criteria of the ranking list ?

Hi, is there any plan to offer the taiwan stock index futures listed at taiwan futures exchange, looks like a good product for trading. http://www.taifex.com.tw/eng/eng2/eng2_1.htm

The lowest point of Shanghai index last year was around 900 points, a great bull market will rise 1000%, so it will not be strange if the same index go to 9000-10000 points sometime next year. Bubble ? never mind, the market will correct itself. US stock market has experienced .com madness...

Hi,How much do you pay for the tradestation platform as non-brokerage client >

No, not at this point. There is no option in China now, and the concept of trading volatility is literally unknown to the majority of the investors.

Chinese goverment has reiterated for the second time within one week in all national media that all investors should bear the potential risks that buying stock can cause. Apparantly around 4000 points is the bottomline of the bubble the government would tolerate. I expect severe policy to...
