If liquidity is your main qualification then N225 or Kospi (CFTC approval should come before year end). HSI doesn't have the volumes but size will trade and will not push the market like it used to.
Times: The timezone doesn't change in Japan (the N225 futures day session in Singapore follows the Japanese exchange hours). Thus the time diff will vary as EST time changes to EDT. Right now in EST the most active hours are 8 PM till 10 PM and then 11:30 till 2 AM.

It's popular - mostly with our Australian customers. It's not as volatile as the other products but it does tend to trend. The index is heavily weighted with natural resource and commodity stocks along with financials. Those have been hot markets of late and thus the index has been more interesting.
