Nice trade. I didn't realize you had some counter-trend tricks up your sleeve.
I'm still flat.

Nice trade. I didn't realize you had some counter-trend tricks up your sleeve.

I dont really fs.
Its just that after reaching serious multiday resistance it broke the down channel and then the push down was on such low volume that I figured it was worth a few points to bet on a return to the mas.
I'm off for the day ... see you guys later.

Have a good weekend. Nice trading.
Let's pick it up again next week. I might be done for the night myself. I'll hang around for a bit to see if a setup forms, otherwise I'll catch some z's.

Quote from kiwi_trader:
No i gave it up after last August when the BSDs from Shanghai arrived.
Spent a month adapting my strategy to STW and SPI (and Nk & eur.jpy but settled on 2). Now I'm not very interested in HSI because I've changed my hours (just trade 2.5 hours before lunch).
well, i guess you made the right decision, kiwi.
HSI changed a lot ever since last Jul, Aug; faced some stormy weather, things are getting better nowadays..
You doing a future of KOSPI11? What products are available?
For small accounts either the Taiwan or mini Nikkei 225 futures are the best. Check out the margin requirements at IB's website.
Short 2 TW @ 349.40
Covered one @ 349.30. Not liking this price action.
Stopped out on second contract @ 349.70.
Net -.20

What is the IB symbol for TW? ANd for the Nikkei 225 mini?
I have the hardest time getting the symbols right.
Also, what is teh tick value in dollars for each of these contracts?
Long 2 @ 49.50. Not looking good on this one either.
