Is there any platform beside Kenanga that offer equities tracker function. I found it helpful especially information on shareholding balance float available. Thanks

Sifu's, I am seeking for help.

I am new to investment and I have RM10,000 to invest with.

1. What is a good platform to start with?
2. Where should I do my research?
3. What do I need to invest mid-high risk stocks?

Open to criticism and comments, thank you.

If you are new, I suggest go with a Unit Trust fund first. Investing in the stock market should not be taken lightly.

Hi guys, any good platform to recommend? in terms of pricing and user-friendliness

I'm planning to diversify my portfolio to start on stock investments. Currently have unit trust funds on hand already and want to expand my investments to riskier side.

Do I need to visit a physical branch to open HLe CDS account or can it be done online?

Hi guys,

I'm currently using Maybank brokerage account and I'm not satisfied with their platform, the plateform can only buy and sell and not much I can do on the platform.

I'm planning to open a brokerage account in Singapore. Few questions to ask:

1) Can a Malaysian open brokerage account in Singapore and trading via Singapore? (I think can but need confirmation)

2) If can open trading account from Singapore, what is the recommended platform to go to?
What I'm looking for is acceptable brokerage fees, access to technical analysis, able to perform day trading.

3) Do I need to go to Singapore personally to open an account?

Many thanks.

Are you going to trade Malaysian or Singaporean equity market?

1) Yes.
2) Cheapest brokerage (buying)
INteractive broker
DBS Vickers (S$5)
Maybank KE prefunded (S$10)
FSMONE (S$10)

Cheapest brokerage for selling
Interactive broker
Maybank KE prefunded (S$10)
FSMONE (S$10)
DBS Vickers (S$25)

Only downside with interactive broker is there is min monthly fee of USD10 if your commision didn't come up to USD

3. For Maybank KE, no need. Can mail them with all the photocopied documents verified by commisoner of oath. For FSMONE, just open account online. Not sure how's the process for Interactive broker.

Thanks for the info.

You mentioned cheapest brokerage and the commissions are quite low. Does the commission, for example "DBS Vickers (S$5)", includes everything like gst, stamp duty etc?
If yes, then it could be cheaper than some of our Malaysian brokerage.
So, is it possible that Singaporean brokerage could be cheaper than our Malaysian brokerage?

No. That's just brokerage commission. Stamp duty everything all extra like S$1+.

It's cheaper for SG stocks but not for Malaysian sticks. Same like here. Local Malaysian brokers offer cheaper price for local stocks and more expensive for foreign stocks.

Thanks for the info, Ramjade

Are all those platforms you mentioned provide stop-loss features? As this is very important to me.

As far as I know, Malaysian platforms are all like 2000 years away in the past, I can't look at the stocks all the time.

Thanks, looking forward for more answers.

I think I will prefer Singapore equity.

I am not sure if you use those prefunded platform/cash upfront account you will get stop loss. Best to email them personally and see

For me I buy and hold so can't answer your questions.

Thanks again for being helpful. I have one last question, hope you don't mind.

From your experience, which market has better profit potential and more liquid (Malaysian or Singaporean)?
I have experience only with Malaysian stock market and I find it very illiquid and the movement is quite slow.

You can use RHB, they have the stop order feature. I am using them because of that.

Lots of people don't like the SG market as
1) it's very slow moving
2) not much choices

People prefer HK and US market as it's more liquid.

Hi there, can you open RHB online?

This website right?
http://www.rhbinvest.com.sg/overview/equities.aspx

Appreciate it. Will look into those markets.


I am not sure. I opened at RHB investment bank branch. They should have it in every state.

Avoid RHB investment at all cost. Expensive.
