Do yourself a favour and check out STW as well. $10 per tick ($100 * 0.1 points per tick) and a nicer trender/mover than Nikkei. Not saying you won't like nik but have a glance at taiwan while you're there
Hi, Powerfade, Just like Kiwi had explained, it moves in 5 tick increments. So, it's 500 Yen per movement. The liquidity is huge (a few thousand contracts on each side), and spread is almost always minimum. HA candles are drawn exactly like the regular candles, just the calculations are different. I'm not sure what you mean by revising themselves after they've been drawn, but once the bar is closed, it's closed, there are no more changes to that candle, period I like to look at them once in a while, because they're pretty but I trade off of my scalping chart. This one is from last night. The movements have been great lately, due to the volatility from our US markets. Schaefer
Ok, thanks kiwi and Schaefer. I'll have a look at both this week. Schaefer, now I'm going to have to spend the next 5 hours (days, weeks) trying to figure out how you're generating those arrows
Can you short the Nikkei 225 mini? I know for HK stocks you can't for retail traders (don't know about HK futures). What about SGX, any restrictions there too? I'm with IB BTW.
Thank Q! Nice thread BTW, I've tried stocks but annoying volatile and I got tired of chasing stocks .......... Now, I'm really getting hooked on futures. Don't know why people still trade stocks as there is a lot of work just to make some money.
