IPOs are usually applied using banks' online services, such as Maybank2u or CIMB Clicks.

Which company you're trying to apply?

RM4000 for my broker. Yup.

Coz you'll only win/lose the difference. And it's very liquid, usually you don't have to queue for long, easily hit target. Also it's fast money.

Well it only depends on your trading/investment style. For equities, you'll still neef a capital to buy and hold. If you are careful enough and plan properly, one contract would be sufficient to make you some money. And then you accumulate the money for more contracts. The difference here is that you don't have margin call and expiry for equities.

Nope. In your case, FD would be a better choice.

Payment date is different from the ex date. You gotta check when is it. Usually you'll receive email when you are paid.

it's called short (hoping it to go down) and long (hoping it to go up) in futures.
simply said, if you open a short position, you will make profit when it goes down. once you have acquired a trading platform, you'll understand the trading.
however if u want to understand the underlying principles and techniques, you gotta read more.

these are warrants, not normal equities counters. newbies are usually advised to stay away from these, as it is more risky.

janganlah boss. push people into fire well.

lol...mungkin

Yup. Sell first and buy later is called short selling, usually used in equities, available in certain stocks only. You're not wrong here.

Read up on "zero sum games". Basically futures is zero sum, but equities is not.
For equities, short selling means you borrow stocks from your broker to sell first (since you can't sell when you don't have any stocks), and when the prices went down, you buy the stocks back, and return to the broker. You gain on the margin.
In futures, you are basically betting against other players. You gain 50 points in a short contract, someone's gonna lose 50 points in a long contract. You could also read up about the initial development of futures and how it helps hedging commodities. Then you'll understand more.

Welcome, feel free to ask more if there's anything u don't understand. I will try to help with my limited knowledge =)

you may apply through online banking services such as Maybank2u
