Hi @warcious
Yes - 9:00 to 13:30 - or when US numbers are in the game: 14:30 are the best and most low risk times...
The Japanese etc. are no longer in the game and US is not open then.
But in fact - during Initial Balance (IB) 9:00 to 9:30 I am NOT in the game - as prices must be juggled
from overnight influences of different markets.
Hope this helps!

Thank you for you reply and help GFIs1!
Do you mean after 14:30 is best and most low risk time? Initially you mentioned 09:00-13:30, then you just said 14:30.
Do you mean after or before 14:30? Thank you for your patience.

If you need the real margins of a broker - then visit the page of Interactive Brokers
to see your preferred instrument(s): just search on the page...

In Australia IB do not offer margin accounts anymore, so I want with AMP instead.
But with my risk approach I would never reach the margin requirements anyway.
I am using Ninjatrader for my trading, and unfortunately they do not support Asian market instruments with chart data, so that is why I am focused on Eurex at the moment.

I mean normally ending time is around 13:30. Only with US NUMBERS it may be until 14:30 (as the numbers are
coming out mostly then).
Never trade the DAX when US cash hours are starting...
Is this clear enough?

Good trades

Thank you for that clarification, that will be a perfect time for me to trade during Australian evening hours.
I will focus on 9.30 - 14.30 then, as my systems follows good trending instruments during normal RTH.
Unfortunately I do not have access to SGX so I could verify how Nikkei, Nifty and Kospi Futures trend in order to test how well they trend during Asian RTH hours (including Australian RTH).
