# @c SIMEX is the derivatives arm of the Singapore Stock Exchange.  SIMEX symbols

# @c @c  The terms and conditions at www.sgx.com (the last of the ``useful links''
# @c @c  at the right hand side of the home page) say linking is allowed but not
# @c @c  deep linking is not allowed.  Dunno what that means, maybe it's nothing
# @c @c  except the home page, though if that were the case you'd think it would
# @c @c  say that.  In any case give directions instead of links.

# @c @c  (Prohibitions on publishing the URL of something already freely accessible
# @c @c  seem pretty dubious, though it's not some passive object, but somebody
# @c @c  else's computer, and is more or less an invitation to use that in a way
# @c @c  they don't want, which would be at best highly irresponsible.)
# @c @c
# @c Symbols can be found on the contract specifications pages.  On the home page
# @c under ``Products and Services'' choose ``Derivatives'' then either the
# @c ``Equity Index Futures / Options'' or ``Interest Rate Futures / Options''
# @c items.  Those two pages then have selection boxes to see each contract.
# @c 
# @c The MSCI Japan contract (symbol @samp{JP}) is not available from Barchart, but
# @c all other contracts are.  Intra-day graphs are not available.
# @c 
# @c Barchart has its own set of contract symbols, but Chart uses the exchange
# @c symbols.
