Hi all,

Can anyone recommend how to gain access to the Singapore Exchange (SGX) via NinjaTrader to trade futures contracts? I need at least level 1 data, preferably level 2.

FYI I'm looking into trading Mini Nikkei 225 Index Futures contracts with order flow during Asia hours, not the equivalent contract on CME during US hours.

I've also read that most contracts are traded on SGX, not the OSE. Is that correct?

Thanks!

@ClutchAce

Interactive brokers is not going to work for order flow (DOM). IB is filtered data.

It could work as a broker though.

I hope someone who trades it can spread a light on it. I've been looking into it myself but couldn't find any info on it.

People mentioned that Denali Data as an option but then shift needs to be made to SC.

@tr8d3r, ahh sorry, I overlooked @tcdouglas 's mention of needing order flow, and like you alluded to, IB has 250ms snapshots i.e. filtered. A few ideas:

1) Get iqFeed subscription then route orders through IB...a 3rd party platform as intermediary/hub might be better in this case (Ninjatrader, Sierra, other)

2) CQG apparently has SGX data (& clearing? Maybe Advantage Futures if not)

3) Rithmic may as well (some exchanges listed on their site have limited access in their platform...you'll need a FCM account too)
