[amibroker] Re: Trading International Portfolios

I am following your proposed project ideas.

Generally, I assume that the volumes of international trade are 
business/institutionally driven and we (retail traders) are only the 
flea on the elephants back.

I can see where you are starting the discussion from - it will be 
ineresting to see what you come up with - I would bias towards 
producing an example (if you defintitely want to do it) because IMO 
customization would be essential, on an individual user basis i.e. 
there are so many nuances to the products and exchange times plus 
the 'broker' may add their own trading timeframe, say if the dealer is 
actually an OTC securities dealer e.g. a CDF dealer like IGMarkets who 
are more like a market maker and can flex their trading hours.

Examples:

Singapore closes for lunch.
The ASX has several products, and integrates the SFE plus CFD and 
Option trading - all with slightly different hours/daylight 
saving/adjusted to US daylight saving or whatever.

Each international strategy requires a case by case approach/read the 
fine print/gain local knowledge.

On the plus side, at a guess, I would say people tend to specialize 
e.g. Forex traders can get all the action they want from a single desk -
 no intervening software required e.g. MetaTrader >> Broker
