QUOTE(LostAndFound @ Oct 2 2020, 04:28 PM) I just funded my IBKR account, waiting for transfer (FAST from CIMB-SG) to go through. May I ask if this balance is cash balance held or total value of portfolio? Previous posts said total portfolio I think |

QUOTE(smokybbq123 @ Nov 4 2020, 03:25 PM) created a new account few days ago and received a call from UK number calling as Interactive broker representative. Seems legit so far as people reported getting those calls after registering...anyway it's likely just about whether you know what to do to activate your account...do you know how to use the platform...sign up for their webinar...activate more services that kind of things...Is this a scam or what? Anyone can enlighten on this? |

For withdrawal to sg bank account, is it required to convert USD to sgd in ibkr before withdrawal? Or just selected withdraw USD to sg bank account?

QUOTE(Ziet Inv @ Feb 24 2021, 09:58 AM) One of my viewer got declined because he said the purpose of opening the CIMB SG account is for "Savings". Not sure why your viewer had that issue. No problem using savings as reason.The other viewers have been using "Investments abroad" have no issue thus far. Ziet Inv liked this post

QUOTE(lambsauce @ Mar 5 2021, 06:19 PM) is the 1k is for initial deposit for account opening only, What you asked is already clearly written in all the quotes you tagged...or also grant the account to have lifetime waiver for annual fees at just 1k balance, or balance+ equity purchased net worth = 1k also can? But anyway, initial opening is 2.5k. You can try to negotiate as the previous comment said but no guarantee. 1k is the balance you maintain throughout the year to AVOID being charged annual fees. 1k consist of the value of your holdings. The current worth of your stocks plus your cash balance. This post has been edited by thecurious: Mar 5 2021, 06:41 PM |

QUOTE(red streak @ Jul 3 2021, 07:28 PM) Transferwise from CIMB MY to CIMB SG. Then onwards to IKBR. QUOTE(Ramjade @ Jul 3 2021, 09:17 PM) Can. Only Euro. Not USD. But get ready to be questioned by them 6-7 months down the road with proof of transfer, and source of it. Failing to answer Ibkr by 4rd email or unsatisfactory response will result in account closure. QUOTE(Yggdrasil @ Jul 3 2021, 10:56 PM) I tried EUR only and it only takes <8 hours. Looking all these replies......better just use the normal bank route. I presume it should work for other currencies except USD. Most people have problems when it comes to transferring USD. If you want USD, I suggest you send EUR to IBKR then convert internally.  |

QUOTE(swiss228 @ Aug 16 2021, 08:35 PM) Hi. I am test driving the IBKR interface now. 1 thing I noticed is they put in a lot of safeguards when I put in an order: makes me hesitant to transmit the order. Anyone has the feeling of hesitancy when confronted with all those safeguard messages? Just ask yourself, would you rather they not have those messages to inform you and let you blindly make decisions? langstrasse liked this post
