Hi guys newbie here. Let say I have deposited one time in stashaway and then plan to dca weekly. Can I proceed using previous JOMpay code and reference number 1 without going into the stashaway website. i confused cuz when 1st deposited stashaway asked for planned value, I wonder if the ref number 1 will change with amount.
*
if i am not mistaken,...the Ref number is linked to your SA a/c number....(which is personal)

One thing , once deposited into my account, if you need to reallocate fund to other portfolio, currency rate will change.
Is there any way to avoid this happen?

SA will takes a few days to fully invest your money...Forex rate & stock pricings can change within this few days

SA does not use historical etf performance to suit individual's risk profile.
The etfs are preselected....

I think, those that had "experienced" better performance else where would use this opportunity to get out of SA and into that "had been" better platform...
Example, latest 2 postings in akru now thread had some possible insights

"what you are buying" - is this recommended by StashAway base on risk assessment or I have to decide my self ?

unknown about your risk appetite and your risk capacity and your "hand on experience" about investing .....i think you will have to decide by yourself......

Stashaway do not have nomination feature like epf. So in time of untimely demise, the family will have to claim through will and lawyer?

i have a question:

IF the portfolio allocations of SA is fixed anyway and there is no AI involved, one can easily use the same portfolio and buy in directly into the ETFs yourself and save the SA charges?
*
Will the rate of exchange or the cost of buying those etfs be a concern?

Good points.  We may gain in the Forex with SA. Seems their rates are pretty good.
As for ETF trading, it is the brokerage charges.
*
Since SA would be buying in bigger amount than us,... Maybe they get lower brokerage charges than us?

Hey guys, is it normal for your initial investment to take a long time to process? Scheduled a deposit on 4 June 2021, until now still "Processing" and not showing up in portfolio. Bank already confirmed the transfer.

maybe the delay is caused by 5,6 = weekends & 7 = PH....?

i myself would just use tracking as a guide for confident level boosting and to mentally support my guesses only, for in my heart i always beliefs "Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The value and income derived from investments may go down as well as up."

I just leave the luck to god when buying in sa, there are mkt risk n forex risk.
Mkt risk has more impact n more chances of happenings.
If just aim for forex gain, to time the buy, one has to be prepare for the opportunity cost too.
If one is good at timing forex movement, should just play forex

those that did not opt for reoptimization last time (May 2020, and are still heavy in SnP etfs, and are reported to be reaping more than the optimised portfolio, will now have no choice since it will be auto optimise later in July 2021??

reading from image in post 14791 " Reoptimisation can no longer be turned off ".....

Yes, that is very true on the returns  if you are comparing AN item with another item that consisted of many geographically diversified items.
And when that single item are performing too.
Sort of like those that bought into arkk last year would hv reapped extremely good ROI too last year. If bought 18 months ago till now would also happy with the ROI.
SA consisted of many diversified etfs...while you are just focusing to compare SA with a single IVV.

Sort of like comparing a malaysia small cap fund with a global general equity funds.

Yes, you are right too about not able to control when you see China is sinking...
I hope you did not invest in unit trust..... For ut has mandates... Good or bad also invested in it.
Perfect or not... Is individual investor's choice...
For me, I still think China has more potential, thus forgoing to have some money in China would be a mistake.... Especually when the fund manager chickened out now.... There is no war or big financial issues or rising debt on China now.... News just mentioned tightening of regulatory control by China authorities.
Sort of like control the water tap to control the  flow of water....
Oooh, what happened to those issues brough up last few years abt "shadow" banking n the problems of huge unofficial debts due to shadow banking?
China mkts had a Good run last year,... If they did not "control" it, I am sure it will overflow....
For many fsm postings had mentioned abt portfolios heavy in china related.
If we are those small little flies also think China  better to hv, what about those fund mgrsthat are given the mandate to hv it thinks?
It will be more perfect if one can always hv an items that can continue to make 10%, "every" year rain or shine....
If by calculating, irr or annualised, those that had arkk 18 mths ago, will still hv many years of good readings to see.

Since MIDF already launch fuss free trading on NYSE and US market,

what will be the plus point of investment in SA vs DIY of index fund investing in MIDF?
*
my plus point is,...i let SA make the etfs selections and let them make changes to the revisions to the selected etfs and % of allocation......i just pay and ride the bus
i don't have time to learn how to ride the bus and select the routes and make changes to the routes when needed too

Sometimes I wonder all these reoptimization making the growth worse.

If I'm not wrong, is basically SA trying to sell some and buy some other etf according to their algo.

Isn't the first rule of long term investing is to hold long term and continue dca regardless?
*
to me, first rule of long term investing is to hold long term and continue dca regardless, BUT the rule book does not mention MUST hold on to each and every items in the portfolio through out that long term journey without the need to monitor or make changes.

i think there should be another rule on long term investing too, that mentioned the need to monitor the holdings periodically and regularly, then make changes to the holdings if/when necessary.

as the changes by SA composition is still unknown,...i don't expect SA to removes any of the etfs completely from its current holdings.....maybe just reduce/add the % to the current etf to make room for many some new one.

reducing some % of an etfs may not be cutting losses when the markets is down like now....for one need to see when was that holding made and how much ROI had that holding made since then.....
example; if one just mentioned "IF Selling ARKK now would mean selling at a loss"......BUT if one go deeper into it, one would have noticed that, if one had ARKK since March 2020,...selling off ARKK now could still have handsome ROI.

for they mentioned "managing risks" in their sales pitch and also
"To manage your investments, we use macroeconomic indicators so that we know about changing economic conditions long before the markets respond, data to understand how asset classes perform in different economic conditions, and thousands of hours of research and testing to select the exact asset classes that comprise your investments.
High risk doesn’t necessarily mean high returns. In fact, because we understand which asset classes perform best in particular economic conditions, we earn returns without exposing your money to unnecessary risk."

Our buy sell order will not execute in the market.
For example A sell portfolio consist of RM100 KWEB.
B deposit RM200 and RM100 will used to by the RM100 KWEB.
They will not transact the A order to market.
They will just change the RM100 from A to B.

If they do that, why is the a/c of both forummers timeekit n producer are still not reflected as having holdings that are already paid since 9 july?
