Didn't realize your were in Australia. We held off as we weren't sure about demand but now have a list of people who want to sign up, thus we will...
yes, IB does offer futures in Europe as well as Hong Kong. (We are basically ready with Australian Futures and Japanese will be added soon)....
For what it is worth.... From time to time I hear that IB may be getting additional insurance coverage. I'm not sure if/when it will happen....
