All good points. Main reason I'd be willing to switch away from IB is data quality, I'd like to have unfiltered data for HSI (without paying...
Can you keep us updated if they decide to add those contracts? If their commissions and margin are competitive w/ IB, I might be willing to switch.
I love such an open-ended question... this one in particular has been asked many times before and will continue to be asked over and over again by...
I wonder if either of these contracts (mini / micro) will overtake the SGX exchange offering, which has pretty thin volume IMO. Trading hours...
