Nikkei 225 Contract For Difference
What?

I traded the N225m Osaka futures for years so I'm pretty familiar with how this market moves. It is the lowest volatility of all the Asian stock index futures.

Hang Seng, or H-Shares is the best, probably followed by the Kospi.

If you plan on day trading, strongly recommend the futures if you want to go down this route. Interactive Brokers offers all these markets and more at a competitive rate.

Try EURTRY MXNUSD USDZAR most inadecvate pairs on market, where you can always find moves. But careful, they are unstable one.

You would do well to brush up on understanding english.

My comment was a relative comment comparing markets in Asia. You are also finding the time to post your smartass remarks after the biggest rally in 7 years on the Nikkei - this is not the norm.

Percent change means fuck all when comparing the Asian markets because they have different minimum tick size increments. The Nikkei trades 10 point ticks on the bigs and 5pt ticks on the mini. Doing a 100point run only moves 10 ticks on the bigs - that is not much. Compare that with the Hang Seng and you do 100 ticks.
