Re: Asia/Pacific traders...How do you cope with the time difference?
At one point in my trading career I was trading the Nikkei listed on SGX, Nick Leeson got my inspired to trade the market that brought down Barings Bank after seeing a movie made about it "Rouge Trader"

Not to mention I was scared of the US markets because of some huge losses I took, but that is a different discussion all together.

For one thing, the US market is the only market that I am aware of that has market internals to show the health of the stock market. I also believe the Korea Stock Exchange has market internals as well, but I do not know of any data vendor that supplies that data.

There is more liquidity in the US markets compared to other financial markets in the world.
