    Grain, meat, food? *smacks maxinger* Dude, you sound like a poser saying that. Worst futures trader ever.

  2. Sorry, I thought it would be easier if I sorted the file by exchange which obviously messed up the row numbers.

  3. Problem is I use an execution algo so I need live data, although @Kernfusion is experimenting with using delayed data and a SNAP MID order.

    Of course I could still add them and not trade them.

  4. IB don't seem to offer Shanghai. I'm not sure it's accesible to offshore retail, although I'd glad if that changed.

    I don't know what a swing trader is, but I'm definitely not a day trader.

  6. I might have overlooked it in your list, but I'm using TSR20 (rubber) at SGX. TSR20 is IB's symbol, the local symbol at SGX is different.

    Try the Asian brokers

    I'm also looking at these:

    but they don't appear to be tradable even with delayed data, the volume on IB looks very weird, one giant spike in the middle and almost nothing the rest of the days..

  9. Most sites - and I as well - trade CL, ES, GC, NQ and YM - of course avoiding 8:30 news and US open. These seem to work well for robotic trading for funded accounts as well (wegettradersfunded.com)
