Hi guys, can check with you all does Sxr8 declare dividend like other spdr or voo? Because I can’t really find any dividend yield online

Guys, i just done funding for trade station international.
Would like to know moving forward i just use IB website or apps to trade?

Or should use back trade station website?

thank guys.
So basically, just register through trade station, then moving forward all is through IB already.

Wow, just change place register then can enjoy the lower commission fees.

But my understanding is IB need to have at least USD10 commission per month.
And trade station min commission for a share is USD 1.5.

Can explain further on this?

Can check with you. I just use IBKR app under TradeStation account to trade a US stock, but the commission charged is USD 1 instead of USD1.5 (TradeStation minimum fee) got any idea?

Hahah, I try using TradeStation application, seriously cannot pakai la. iB one is much more better eh

Is in US exchange market.
Based on the tradestation global table should be USD1.5, since i only purchase 10 units (should charge the minimum commission).

USD1 seem like is the minimum commission for IB.
Worry later will kena charge the IB minimum activity fee USD10 , because all my funding, trade also made through IB mobile app.

you din use SG account to transfer?
that 1 instantly show in the trade account, super fast 1.

bro can explain why you say IB is cheaper than tradestation or not?
If really cheaper I want to switch to IB leh, quite impressed with their mobile app and portal.

Aiya, then okay la. I thought i missed out something...
quite obvious one Tradestation is still IB, even our fund deposit also to IB, login also use IB portal.
Can avoid the monthly fee of USD10 consider save a lot already.

Hi can straight away EUR/USD instarem to tradestation global/IB account?

i currently looking at this : BNP Paribas Easy S&P 500 UCITS ETF EUR C (ESE.PA), listed in France, dividend will be reinvested into the ETF.
Current price EUR 12-13 per share, quite cheap also.

Should be able to address the WHT issue?

I think you didn't get my message, the dividend for this ETF will be reinvested in the ETF again.
Meaning, there is no dividend from this ETF, hence, it should not subject to any WHT.

Unless you are saying there is WHT attach to the capital gain subsequently when dispose the ETF.

Ya, still checking on the tax on capital gain in France.
I see, thank for the sharing. Feel like synthetic fund a bit not so secure, hmm better go for the physical ETF.

maybe you can enlighten me on this?
guess this is the purpose of forum right? to share the knowledge.

I don't get it, if it is accumulating ETF, since there is no dividend declare, how can we kena WHT?
I thought the accumulating ETF should work the same way like Warren B?

Even if there is WHT, should on the ETF level right (since the ETF is the one receiving the dividend from the US companies).

Even the ETF domiciled in US also kena tax when US company pay dividend?

My understanding is:
US company pay dividend to US ETF (no tax), but US ETF pay dividend to us (30% WHT)
US company pay dividend to non-US ETF (15% WHT), if non-US ETF pay dividned to us (15% WHT)
US company pay dividend to non-US ETF (15% WHT), if non-US ETF accumulated dividend (no tax)

Any sifus can share a bit?

i think need to see whether they got any protection or not.

Tradestation global using IB and IB is under SIPC (something like PIDM for Malaysia Bank), according to SIPC website the limit of SIPC protection is $500,000, which includes a $250,000 limit for cash and no requirement that a customer reside in or be a citizen of the United States. A non-U.S. citizen with an account at a brokerage firm that is a member of SIPC is treated the same as a resident or citizen of the United States with an account at a SIPC member brokerage firm.

So as long dont invest more than USD500k should be quite safe la

Yaya, like i mentioned in my post.
I know anyhow will kena WHT (either at ETF level or investor level). But i want to avoid kena twice only.
i.e. if non-US ETF declare dividend, i will be kena twice right?

Based on my research capital gain in Irish shares by non-Irish resident is not taxable right?
