>optionpro007 Can anybody tell me the Nikkei futures trading hours at the TSE? The Nikkei futures, both full size and mini, are traded on the Osaka exchange. The trading times are 09:00 to 11:00 for the morning session and 12:30 to 15:10 for the afternoon session. gaijin

>bolter In defense of the TSE you're way off the bat. Daytrading here in Japan is booming. True, the TSE computers are not new, and they will be replaced in 2008. In the meantime the order capacity has been increased greatly. However, they do not run behind in fast markets. They closed...

>TGM This page from the English site for The Tokyo Stock Exchange lists all the stocks and their codes. http://www.tse.or.jp/cgi-bin/compsearch/e_search gaijin

>TGM There are, but you would need a local account. Here is a site where among other things you can get delayed data for the top 200 percentage gainers/ losers and volume leaders by market (1st section, 2nd section etc.) by day, week and month. Click on the 'C' on the right for charts...

>risktaker For realtime data you could use IB, eSignal or Equis. >Bitstream Stocks that trade in 100 or 1 share lots are mostly the higher priced stocks. Keep in mind that the average shareprice here is 455 yen. For most stocks that trade under 1,000 yen the minimum is 1000 shares...

It may, or may not, interest you to know that while candlesticks are still used on almost all printed charts here in Japan, very few people use the candlestick patterns as a form of analysis.

The obvious answer is 'a trader'"!!

Just to make you jealous and to let you know what you might have someday, I live in Tokyo where most people have 100 Mbps optical fiber connections for around $30 a month.

>manyit >>Just thinking to consolidate the trading platform and TA >>together. :> One thing you could do is combine eSignal and IB as a trading platform by placing your orders to IB through eSignal.

>manyit I asked Tradestation the same thing 9 months ago. They said it was in their plans, but it might take another year or so. You can trade the Nikkei on the Osaka exchange with IB. Also the Mini-Nikkei.

>droskill In response to a question I submitted to support I did get a reply in native English!!

>tuttle1 >>WHICH ONE ARE YOU IN A TRIAL FOR AND WOULD YOU BUY IT? >>DO YOU BELIEVE IT WILL HELP YOU MAKE MONEY? I'm using the latest version (5.0.4) of TradeSignal. I would not subscribe to it now due to the lack of the functions stated in my last posting. However, should it someday...

I'm using the trial version now and find it quite good in many respects. However, I think it could be greatly improved by adding the following: 1) being able to drag to expand and contract the the y and x axis. 2) pop up charts that can be dragged outside the platform and...

droskill Thank you very much for your detailed opinion. It was most informative. gaijin

With so many new threads posted each day only a small number of them can be viewed on the top page. And even if you go to the All Forums page, with only 5 threads listed in each@one you could still miss many threads. Would it be possible to have a 2nd or 3rd page to cover all threads...

I have been using J-Trader through a Japanese broker in Tokyo for a number of years. It has only crashed once as I can remember. The bid/ask data does not lag and is accurate. But the ticker does miss some transactions when the traded sizes repeat. JT is easy to use but will use up more...

skippy, >Price can do one of two things -- go up or go down. Which means we have a 50:50 chance of being right (or wrong) when we guess where price is going to go next (right?). Is it really just a 50/50 chance? As I don't imagine that you are talking about the direction of the next...

Hi Cash, Are these remote traders living outside the U.S. allowed to trade any market, or are they restricted to U.S. markets only? For example could they trade Japanese Govenment Bond futures on the Tokyo exchange? Thank you for the information, Jay

When you have a volume spike, the volume bars that follow are shown only as specks. When you drag the volume scale up to expand the bars, the bars do expand, but at the same time they go down below the bottom border of the volume pane and are no longer visible. If you could then put your...
