QUOTE(SLR_kaki @ Oct 14 2009, 10:40 PM) Can anyone recommended local broker to trade US market? Sorry mate, if you want a local broker, you'll have to fork out a pretty penny cos the charges aren't cheap unless you're buying in huge quantities then you can probably lower down your break even price. Again, you probably wouldn't need to care much about the prevailing exchange rate unless you're transacting in large quantities or if you're a forex trader. I recently use CIMBInvest, damn expensive and they convert my stock price and unreasonable commission and currency rate. what whatever u buy & sell at day, the price u see in the screen is reflecting ccy conversion of that day (USD against MYR). Totally unreasonable. If you want lower brokerage fees, you need to look towards discount brokers which are based in the US. Best to check with zamans98 as he has done some pretty extensive 'research' by opening accounts with various brokers. If all else fails, there's always Google. |

Sold FUQI @ 27.20 during the early session. Just small profit.
Waiting for another reentry at lower price. Damn FAS getting higher... this is probably going to 100 soon. |

Stocks rallied Wednesday morning, with the Dow industrials flirting with the 10,000 level for the first time in a year, following better-than-expected quarterly profit reports from Intel and JPMorgan Chase.
The last time the Dow crossed 10,000 during a trading session was Oct. 7, 2008, when it briefly touched 10,124.03 Will it be safe to buy C now? |

This will be interesting. I wonder if the pullback might start tomorrow if the dow closes above 10k and tomorrows earnings aren't up to par?

QUOTE(GHz @ Oct 14 2009, 11:24 PM) I buy around same time with you. (After saw your post). But still holding li.Also buy LVS yesterday. The good think about this SOGOTRADE is free 100 trade. I can buy very small unit and accumulate slowly. That the best part as it free in first month. This post has been edited by mynewuser: Oct 15 2009, 06:54 AM |

When I have the free trades last month I even just buy 1 unit for a start. Just to get the feel. Also buy LVS yesterday. The good think about this SOGOTRADE is free 100 trade. I can buy very small unit and accumulate slowly. That the best part as it free in first month. |

WOOT - URE hit another week high 613.
GHz - my Q of URE didn't materialised at 590 S is heading north as well due to the feel good factor. I'm still holding my C - TP 5.05 - or higher, depends on market feels n condition. Dumping ETFC for URE or UYG soon. |
