Does anyone know whether Tradestation and IBKR allow people to buy 1 unit of US stock? Usually its 100 units right?

I wanted to build a portfolio of FAANMG stocks but some are so expensive that I can only afford 1 unit. 

US is 1 unit for 1 stock. IINM pure IB can even buy fractional shares. But if open via whitelabel then can’t

Im sending HKD to IBKR using InstaReM FPX method, for "account number(with branch code)" is't just add the 3 digit branch code behind acccount number? Eg: 123456789XXX?

you mean in InstaRem?
what's the account number? I can check with my previous transfer.

yaya I mean in InstaRem when filling recipient info, the "bank account number" and (bank code) behind. Should i just add the 3 digit bank code behind when filling account number.

I've never thought of this in my last transfer. I just use the number given by IBKR.

Bank code is not branch code! I think branch code is already included in the bank account number given by IBKR. You worry too much.

Sorry my mistake, i mean add branch code behind account number.

add 391 in front of the bank acc number.

Why you should get Transferwise?

Transferwise is a Fintech (financial technology) company that offers cheap cross-border money transfer, like InstaRem, MoneyMatch, Revolut etc. In addition to highly competitive exchange rates (at the moment, it has the best rate among these fintech companies), ITS MAIN SELLING POINT is that, it provides you with virtual bank account details - they call it the Borderless account.

With Borderless accounts, you have your own bank account details for USD, GBP, EUR, AUD, PLN, SGD and NZD. You can use these account details to accept payment from third parties. For example, I can give my GBP account details to someone in the UK to pay me in GBP, or my SGD account details to someone in SG to pay me in SGD.

To sign up for TW: FREE (you can PM me for a referral code)
Accept payment via Borderless account: FREE



I can assure you, TW offers very competitive rates. 
At the point of writing, €1,000 gives RM 4774.65.
versus InstaRem, €1,000 gives 4763.94.
What about banks?? Hmm, I'm not sure but .... good luck! 
Debit mastercard: FREE (only for those residing overseas). Perfect for when you're travelling abroad!

However, TW Borderless account is not available at the moment for Malaysia? I just checked and its still not available. I guess whoever who opened their TW Borderless account before they removed it can still use it.

Good news - it looks like Transferwise have changed their minds about closing their Borderless Accounts for Malaysians. Just received an email today my Borderless Account will remain open.

However, TW Borderless account is not available at the moment for Malaysia? I just checked and its still not available. I guess whoever who opened their TW Borderless account before they removed it can still use it.

Oh yes. You're right! Too bad. 

They have changed their mind again but this time, only new users in Thailand; new users in Malaysia excluded.

.......have decided to no longer close borderless for new or existing users in Thailand, or for existing users in Malaysia.
