TraderTactics,
Thanks for mentioning MF. I spoke with them this morning and here is what I have so far:
They offer 50% of KRX min margin requirement for intraday.
The round trip with all fees is $6 (add $1 if custom front end like Ninja is used or pay $750 per month)
The data is send every 100ms.
This is actually very exiting. I am waiting for some additional info. Once I open an account with them and start trading will report further.
Regards,
redduke

Hi, Redduke:
I've read a lot your threads related to KOSPI and going to open an account with IB soon to trade it at night.
What do you mean by add $1 if custom front end? What is custom front end?
Thanks for all your information which is priceless for me.

Hi.. I'm also interested in trading kospi 200 futures,
with a broker other than IB.
I day traded on the demo and have experienced disconnections at intervals, order slippage and worst of all, I was caught naked when my stop loss order failed was 'transmitted but not yet acknowledged', costing me 25 ticks.
While IB has v good commissions and is an all-in-one platform, day traders cannot tolerate poor order executions and disconnections.
Any futures trader has a recommendation for a broker that provides kospi, with reasonable commissions and good executions?
Thank you

Hi redduke,
Living in Australia, the KSE is by far the most liquid exchange in my region. So I've traded K200 options extensively in IB and am now looking at K200 futures ( and am doing simulated IB trades for that).
I've noticed that you use Ninja with IB to trade the K200 futures and presumably you are using the SuperDOM. I've not used Ninja at all and would like to know what compelling reasons there are for using Ninja on top of IB - for example I presume the SuperDOM is superior to the IB Book trader - but in which ways.
Many thanks for any comments.
