Forget about banks. You convert to USD, you lose money. When you convert back you lose money again. Go and see the spread of the USD of banks.

Whats the best method beside bank?

Crypto : buy USDT? p2p. no middle conversion rate
or money changer better?

BboyDora you need MBB SG or OCBC SG. delink your malaysian mobile no from CIMB SG, then link to either one (I have OCBC SG)

ooohh.... I mean from MYR to SGD for the best conversion rate. (some forumer recommend Sunway Money but i old uncle dunno how it works rclxub.gif )

if MBB SG to CIMB SG, it will be in SGD right? sorry for the noob question

BboyDora to use DuitNow Overseas Transfer, you need either OCBC SG or MBB SG.

if you have either, you can transfer MYR from MBB M'sia to OCBC/MBB sg

after you received the money already (converted to SGD) in OCBC/MBB sg, you can do local bank transfer to CIMB sg

why we have to do these extra steps? because CIMB sg doesn't support DuitNow Overseas Transfer

ahhh.................. now I understand. CIMB SG punya problems.

ok thank you thank you. rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif

A lot of people like to fight the market now. Once Ringgit weakened a bit, they quickly convert to USD or SGD.

Unker doesn't have much time but Unker is patient enough to let the dead cat bounce.

Unker also see a lot of bag holders in the forum. Don't fight the market. Let it come to you

very basic rules.
Ringgit strong, convert all to USD and SGD (cz consider"cheap")

Converted a portion at RM 3.2 = SGD 1

When Ringgit weakened, convert back to MYR. Will convert when SGD 1 = RM 3.5

moral of story... have a plan...do your own due diligence... dun simply listen to ppl...

yes. no need listen to ppl. simple rules. buy low sell high. (or convert low, and change when it's higher)

Since MYR is getting weaker against USD, time to unload it.

As long as I make profit, no need to listen to anyone or so call gurus. Warren Buffett rules too, Be Fearful When Others Are Greedy
