XJO and SPI discrepancy has flipped this morning and we are now seeing the SPI
at a 20 point premium for the first time in awhile.
Is this bullish????
A Broker Firm in their morning SPI report today Tuesday 2nd feb.
Am I allowed to say the name.?
I have emailed them since your reply and will post thier reply.
The Broker reply:
"the statement is taken from the close of the XJO yesterday and compared with the close of the SPI on the SYCOM session."
As it happens, they misred the figures- but that is how they calculate the premium/discount for their morning report.
Very strange way- would you agree?
What is the normal way??
You can only compare it when the cash is open. Name and shame em'
Hi all,
Was wondering if anyone trades the KOSPI200??
Why is it that the kospi trades with more volume than the Australian index futures? I mean ... Australia is a larger market than Korea ... but the kospi has like 5-10x more volume of contracts traded.
I dont think theres a relationship between the capital size of a stock market and the volume traded on its futures. Can you think of a reason as to why there should be? Futures can be traded by anyone around the world with a pc. Volume traded on futures isnt supplied by just local traders from that country.
Anyway, the way I look at it, is that each major region, Asia, Europe, USA, needs a futures instrument to trade that supplies large liquidity for the rich players. Asia is the K200, Europe is the ESTX50 and USA is the ES.
I guess at some stage the Kospi was picked to be that instrument for asia. Im not sure of the history of the kospi, I wonder if anyone knows on these forums.
