Re: Hang Seng Index Futures

After you have tried HSI, ES would seem listless in comparison.

Re: Hang Seng Index Futures

Me and a fellow trader trade the HSIF pretty much everyday as we reside in Hong Kong. We can safely say that consistently profiting 100+ points per day is attainable. My friend has not had a losing trade since mid-May. Overall, his winning ratio is around 75% which is quite impressive. And this is done from trading from a set of simple moving average crossovers. However, you should note that the HSIF is known to gap, sometimes wildly, between lunch breaks and daily sessions. It is also typical that sellers come in around 3pm (local time) as the Shanghai market close.

... then don't trade the afternoon.
as a matter of fact, don't trader after 11:30am.

enjoy life, which is more important than trading.

NT works with IB's TWS. Some FCMs like MF Global, RCG offer Pats to trade HSI, and NT is supposed to work with Pats.

HSI traders should check the Chat room during Asian market hours...
