Schaefer's Journal of Nikkei 225 Mini.

Hi
Schaefer do you still trade Nikkei 225 mini in Osaka?

 

I still do. If I can be of help until Schaefer answers...

 

how many ticks is a point in the n225 mini?

 

It moves in increments of 5 yen. Each tick is 500 yen.

 

Anyone flipping N225 minis know why you can't get a preopening indication anymore through IB? It just shows a crossed market like 17670/15010 today, open was 16130.

Started happening when OSE switched their systems about 3 weeks ago

 

I don't have TWS in front of me as I switched to the local brokers which offer much better conditions. However, it sounds like a problem in the settings for BookTrader. Have you checked that? Yet the preopening indication time hasn't changed .If it were an oversight by IB, it would have resulted in immediate complaints.

The 17670/15010 are today's price limits.
