With stashway, you have no control over what ETF you want to buy. With DIY, you can choose which ETF you want, and buy from which exchange.

Have you searched for USD.HKD?

TWS has 2 modes: Classic or Mosaic.
I prefer the Mosaic mode.

Here are the tutorials:

FX Order in Mosaic
FX order in Classic

Remember you have to sell USD.HKD.

Yup, use Instarem (MYR) and convert to SGD then transfer to IB's Citibank account in Singapore. You will get it in SGD currency in your IB/CapTrader account. For me, I just convert the SGD to EUR to buy ETF in Amsterdam Exchange. Instarem charges about 0.5% for MYR->SGD while IB charges EUR 2 for forex conversion if I remembered correctly.


While I haven't tried withdrawal yet but I think I have to use TransferWise to get back my money. This is how I figured:

CapTrader/IB (EUR) -> TransferWise (MYR) -> Malaysian bank in MYR.

From TW's website, they charge 0.5% for that which seems pretty reasonable.

Anyone here can confirm this?

I am using CIMB Fastsaver account.

You mean the FAST transfer option in CIMB Clicks? Under Local Transfer > Transfer to other bank?

Yes, i use that to fund FSM SG

Not tried this yet - I usually withdraw to overseas account and not to MYR

Withdrawals are fast though - I get them through mostly within an hour or less.

Can i know to to get the Sgd Banking details?
From what is posted in the website they seems like only accept USD EURO and a few more
Sgd isnt in the list.

markedestiny That should be it. If you are still in doubt, try with a small amount.
I am not sure if FAST is free with CIMB. I use Maybank SG where FAST is free.

Krv23490 Is your transfer from CIMB SG to FSM free?

The list on Captrader is not the complete list. After you open account with Captrader, you can notify Captrader/IB about your deposit.
There many currency options for deposit/withdrawal. See the picture attached.

Yes. If i am not mistaken its free

I know I can use FAST to fund my FSM One Sg because FSM has Sg account details.

What about Captrader, do they have a local Sg account details in order to do FAST transfer? I can't seem to find this detail on Captrader web.

Interested to know this too ,wasn't able to find it on their website previously

As mentioned in post #1030, you will see IB's SG account number after you login to account management and initiate a deposit notification.
IB might have different account number for different white labels.

By comparing the deposit instruction of Captrader and my broker, Zackstrade (another IB white label), I notice that Captrader is affiliated IB UK while Zackstrade is affiliated with IB US.
All the deposit accounts are with Citibank in different regions. But the name/address registered to the Citibank account can be IB UK or IB US.
I think this does not make any difference.

Ic... Terus captrader wire back to ringgit option not available? Why malaysia~

Just wondering, can we buy etf on tradegate via captrader?
there r plenty of etfs listed there.such as SXR8
https://www.tradegate.de/orderbuch.php?isin=IE00B5BMR087
https://www.tradegate.de/index.php?art=etp

the fees for each transaction for tradegate is only 2 euro. seems to be gooding.
https://www.captrader.com/en/account/conditions/

can any sifu check via captrader? i tried to seach via IB demo acc.But cant seems to find tradegate listed etf.

The ETF is by Ishares and has different ticker depending on what exchange you want to buy it on

https://www.ishares.com/uk/individual/en/pr...ts-etf-acc-fund

Eg. SRX8 on Deutsche Boerse XETRA, CSPX or CSP1 on LSE etc.

All those exchanges are available through IB

Don't think so. Your only option is SG bank account/testing with Transferwise.

Is it possible if after I funded IB, I withdraw 100% of it? Say few days later and leave zero inside?
