Trade Station customer service sure reply fast.
1. They accept Malaysians as customer.
2. Yes, they are whitelabel.
3. Minimal opening account is USD5000
4. No monthly fees if account fall below certain limit.

Thanks, for all the replies and info.
need to spend some time over the weekend to study the comparison between brokers.. and what suit me best..  hmm.gif

Also look at below Etoro demo account on the x1 which is "buying the underlying stock?  confused.gif  rclxub.gif "

and x5 leverage which is CFD with the daily charges.

if you check the live market, the buy price you buy from etoro is more expensive than the real live market price
like ASNA now price is 1.14, but even X1, you buy at 1.15

thou etoro claim you are buying the underlying share, but they sell you 0.01 more expensive
mean the moment you buy, you already losing, lol

Hi might be a noob question here

Said i started investing with ETF with captrader now
and keeping it loooooooooong term until retired only withdraw

said by that time my portfolio might be few mil
would there be any issue to transfer few mil from captrader > SG account > MY bank account?

since it is a large amount and might fall under BNM monitoring?

Hi guys, wanna ask what is the forex rate/charge

for converting SGD -> USD/EUR
in TradeStation/Captrader by buying the currency pair?

or it is live rate but only charging based on transaction fee? what is the transaction fee for each buying order?

Here you go if you'd like a bookmarkable step by step guide, just sub USD with EUR if you're doing SGD->EUR and ignore the part about the IWDA:
https://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/119895805-post5420.html

If you don't already have USD, you'll get charged in your base currency (converted from USD2)

Special note: Use FXCONV instead of IDEALPRO if you don't want to see a SGDxxx currency virtual position

haha just so happened I am planning to invest in IWDA laugh.gif

thanks dude for the steps reference

btw I researched on justetf found out that IWDA can be purchased through LSE (traded with USD) or Amsterdam listing (traded with EUR)

1) Anyone here know does Ireland-domiciled ETF subjects to Dirt, or exit tax?

I read from some online article that Irish-domiciled ETF is liable to Dirt, or exit tax, at a rate of 41 per cent. ohmy.gif

reference: Don’t invest in an ETF until you understand the tax

2) both IWDA Amsterdam listing and IWDA LSE listing are same subjected to 15% withholding tax? just that traded in different currency?

Anyone can comment on the following S&P 500 ETFs?
Which one would u choose and why? Whats their difference?

VUSD:LN
Vanguard S&P 500 UCITS ETF

CSPX:LN
iShares Core S&P 500 UCITS ETF

CSP1:LN
iShares Core S&P 500 UCITS ETF

SXR8:GR
iShares Core S&P 500 UCITS ETF
*
u can go justetf website and check

VUSD:LN
this is distributing policy instead of accumulating, accumulating is usually preferable as dividend is straight reinvested.

CSPX:LN
CSP1:LN
SXR8:GR
these are the same ETF, just the different ticker and trade currency, it depends which currency u wanna hedge on i would say? and also might need to take note on the volume and spread size.

to be honest,
i don't quite know how to use justetf.
Got myself confused.

lets say for,
1)
https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/VUSD:LN

2)
justetf website:
Vanguard S&P 500 UCITS ETF
ISIN IE00B3XXRP09, WKN A1JX53
as justetf website doesn't show the same ticker.. "VUSD"

Am i looking at the same ETF.. for this VUSD?

thanks for the currency notes.

Any comments on buying ETF via Fundsupermart Singapore? I just opened an account with them.

if you are talking about foreign ETF,

most of the ETF of FSM SG is US domiciled, so you can't run away from 30% dividend tax?

That's why we have been discussing on buying irish domiciled ETF, but FSM doesn't has that.
