I would like to know what's the online trading brokerage fee + stamping fee?

I purchase 2000 units of a share of RM 0.375 and MBB charges me RM779.23.

So I assume the brokerage fee + stamping charge is RM29.23 which is around 3.89%.

It's the same cost as calling my broker over the phone.

Please advise if you have the same problem.

You are buying too little volume, that is why you kena minimum charge.

For your case RM 0.23 is from clearing fees and RM 1 is stamp duty... which leaves RM 28 as your minimum charge.  sweat.gif

Buy more or negotiate for lower minimum charge for a lower cost %. For more details look at Q&A thread for the exact calculations.

Yea. Got the same feedback from my broker.
But I think I will switch to APEX, they are charging minimum of RM12. Suitable for small player like me ...

u sure about that? coz trading online will not charge so much. now they got promotion of min RM8 broker fee. even if no promotion also RM12 broker fee per transaction. u have to check with Maybank and ask what are the fee charges. make sure u know what they charge for each transaction. sometimes may due to error.

Thanks understand now.
I'm planning to switch to other broker firm that offers lower brokerage fee at minimum at RM12.

Go open a trading account with Maybank Share Investment Centre and not Maybank Investment Bank to get that RM8/RM12 instead of RM28.

I believe you opened a 'wrong' account.

What's the main difference?
