Wiring Recessed Lighting in/from Insulated Attic

What wiring to use (Bx/Romex or Conduit?)

2 of the upper rooms in our home need some more lighting. Each room
already has recessed lighting installed. I'd like to tap power off
the lights already installed in the room to power the new recessed
lights.

I've purchased recessed cans for insulated areas (applicable for
direct contact with insulation). Can I use Romex to run from the
existing can lights to the new cans? Or should I really be using
conduit or flexible conduit instead? The installation will be
performed from the attic.

Code issues? I know I cannot be advised specifically on the code in
my area (IL), but generally speaking, I want to be sure I remain
within code.

Thanks,
Jeff

Also check the instructions with the lamps as they sometimes include
minimum heat capability for the wire, make sure whatever you use meets those
specifications.
