Nikkei 225

You think people wanna buy Japanese stocks right now? Zooooooooom....


Q1

 

any preferred technical indicators for scalping the nikkei?

 

hi, does anyone trade this. I want to get involved is the best way via CME Dollar Yen (NKZ5) for instance? Or is there a more liquid/better way to trade against the n225?

thanks

 

simex nikkei 225's are the best way . trade em thru IB.

 

Just checked it (its IB symbol is SGXNK right?).

It looks quite liquid, but it trades in 5pt tick increments. Maybe it's a leftover from the times that NIKKEI was trading at 40.000 points?

Just like ES's 0.25tick was OK when SP500's avg daily range was 22-25pt...

 

compared to the n225 futures that trade with a minimum interval of 10 ticks it quite tight.

 

How's that volatility/liquidity for scalpin nikkei stocks intraday?
