How to buy ark funds? Is it possible to buy thru stashaway?

Hi, interested in setting up a US Stock trading account.
From what i read here, seems like TDAA is the good bet but wire transfers appear to be expensive.

Is Interactive Brokers still an option for say around $5k deposit? Do they still have that min $10k requirement? Right now they appear to be attractive since theres that TransferWise option to move money around.

Guys is TigerBroker reliable and safe?

Any other recommended brokers for foreign stocks?

Am planning to get my first share in Tesla! Haha

So far ok TigerBroker compare to IB

isnt tigerbroker a singaporean company?

Okay thanks. So we just do you use then?

Huh, quite surprised they block TDA. While I never heard of the others, TDA is certainly legit and an established firm, merged with Schwab not long ago. It's website is blocked in Malaysia too, though the Singapore one is working. TDA is also licensed with the MAS.

The reason for blocking is: "Dealing in securities".

Looking at this, I am worried that IBKR might get banned as well, for the same reason.

Malaysia ban is just little piss when the fact most major trading are still done on IBKR which will still be around maybe even an incentive to open up for retail directly 

How to do DCA for ARKK funds? How much you put in each time? At what intervals? 1 month, 3 months....

I would like to ask for recommendation of etfs. The purpose of this etf is for retirement fund and also university fund for kid in the future. so, the horizon is 10-15 years from now.

I have two in mind now :

You are definitely bullish with ark. I do like ark with their disruptive idea. Where can I track their performance vs indexes?

As long as it serves the purposes to make money who cares how sophisticated  it is

How do you cover the calls and puts in HKSE?

Is there any particular thing to take notice plus any good online guides you start from?

Are you sure?

Yes I know. Index options, commodities options and forex options are available though. SGX market isn't as deep and wide as HK or US yet.

Given your sophisticated knowledge, you can try DLCs or futures too. Individual stock futures are available on SGX. Why didn't you go for them? You want the underlying dividend from options as futures don't pay dividends?
