    ET99,

    Thank you very much for sharing your HSI approach. I like your method, it's completely logical. I'll let you know how I do after getting some trades under the belt.

    ET,

    In addition, can you describe your stop loss strategy? How far? Limit order?

    hi, How is the liquidity of mini MHI. Do you people trade MHI or HSI. Thanks

    the liquidity is around the same as HSI as anything crossing the spread of HSI will normally get filed.

    I've been looking at the HSI lately and i'm thinking about trading the MHI. I just have a 2 questions. is the first 15 minutes 945pm eastern time considered premarket ? also for some reason my charting platform's 30 minute chart starts at 945 and goes on 30 minute intervals ending in a 15 and 45 instead of mid hour and top of the hour is that normal or does that have to be changed? thanks

    HSI futures do open at 9:45, but cash open at 10:00. So, your platform is working correctly.

  8. beware: there's premarket opening session before 9:45 am hkt in the morning session and before 2:30 pm hkt in the afternoon session

    check with www.hkex.com.hk for details

    I agree. I can trade the actual HSI from 9.45, 10.00 usually bringing a change in the price movements: more vigour in the previous direction or direction change, from what I've seen so far.
