Hi all, I'm wondering does anyone know where to find info on the most liquid futures contracts traded? I'm specifically interested in the Asia RTH.
I understand FIA (FIA.org) release a report with annual traded volume by futures contract each year but is only available to members at substantial cost. Does anybody have this and would they be willing to share? Any other suggestions would be great.
The purpose is I am looking for liquid futures contracts (other than the usual suspects - HSI, Nikkei) to intra/interday trade during Asia RTH with sufficient liquidity and volatility.
Many thanks.

You would actually be in an advantage to trade the US markets while they're "closed" don't worry about liquidity myths we have plenty of High Frequency Traders who would love to fill your orders.

Thanks for the tip.

For anyone interested if you Google "fia.org most liquid futures contracts" you will see a result for 2019 mid year futures and options performance data article with excel downloads. Couldnt post the link as I have too few posts.

FYI - KOSPI 200 mini is 50th on the list with 12.5m contracts for the H1 '19 - up 30% on '18
