Hi kevin4c:
If you serious about trading US index, please open real future account , don't use those Black Market account, as black market account will usually tell you 1:400 leverage ability but you are usually losing on the spread advantage and when you lose money you are really quick....
For example: black market broker requires USD50 to trade a S & P contract (it usually did not indicate if you are trading on mini or big contract...I guess they are the host of the game and that's why they usually have large spread), your blackmarket usually don't earn trading commission but the spread gains. Sometime when the market move aganist your black market broker, you will notice the trading price DONT move along... or move later.. to compensate their lost.!! it is not a fair game!
For real future, it will be exactly same as the requirement stated in CME website: where you will need around 5K USD as deposit (not actually 5K but you can find out from CME website), and the spread is exactly from the CME exchange itself. Your broker just earn your commission only.
A lot of brokers in HK has provided US Future trading services. have a search online. Sorry I cannot name who are the blackmarket or real market broker here. Text me if you want to know more information. I know MT Sir also provides Oversea Future trading services.
Hi Happy_88, thank you for your comment, i will do research on Nasdaq also but I won't trade Nasdaq because the participants in emini S & P future is a lot, and very active. It gives me room to enter and exit very easily.
Tonight has no action as just came back from foot massage
but looks like US market is a bit tired.... but HK market seems to be relatively stronger than US market.
HK HSF:
DayChart - still strong
hour - need to take a small break
15m - if broken BB middle line should go down further
i think can try to buy 'small bet' at low for tomorrow market.. hopefully can buy at 15m bb low (must do risk management to cut lost ah...)
US emini s & P
Day chart - still strong
hour - need to digest the recent up force
15 min - trending down
补充：美期好有上落市feel好像想等港期升完了才调整。。。
above do not serve as buy/sell recommendation, it is purely for academic discussion
