    is a good area to live. Not too expensive and is only a 15 mins bus/tram ride from Central (the financial district) in Hong Kong Island.

    Seems that everybody Asian is from HK, anybody from Taiwan?

    I know a couple of people trading from Taiwan. The problem for the majority of Taiwanese and even Hong Kongers about posting on this board is that they don't speak English.

    def,

    Now you know one more. What time do you sleep?

    I saw some IB "kiosks" in shopping malls in HK recruiting new acounts when I went there.

    BTW, I think I saw your post before mentioning something about IB and Qcharts, any update on this?

    Sleep: whenever my kids let me :)

    We have never had a Kiosk in a shopping mail so you must be mistaken. There were a couple of expos or other places where we demoed or were invited to speak.

    Qcharts: I'm not sure what is happening - if anything - with qcharts anymore. E-signal, quotetracker, sierracharts are three that I know of that have or are in the process of linking up to our HK data feed for charting.

    BTW, I'll be in Taiwan next weekend for a softball tournament.

    Hi def,

    Hard to be trading at dawn for the US markets, so I might switch to ESTX50.

    I'm based in Kaohsiung, so give me a call when you're here, maybe we can "hook up" - that's the name of this section, right?

    Hey,

    Taiwan Traders, great to hear that there are live traders from Taiwan. I am curious to know how you guys started trading U.S. Equities? and what brokers do you use to trade?
