QUOTE(SunshineCa @ Jun 26 2009, 09:42 AM) Danmooncake, No, that's just me.. I use vpn connection for business, not for downloading recreational stuff.Do we seriously need to implement VPN in order to trade online and interactively with US brokers?? I thought VPN is meant for those Big Downloaders on movie files????? Your VPN services is chargeable? I know nothing about VPN, though can learn from internet. thks Yes, my vpn is not free.. my us partner company provides for me. I use pay for local ISP only. Don't get me wrong, vpn doesn't speed up your connection. It just helps to protect it from peeking eyes. Seems like some people with lower bandwidth even at 384k can get thru with no problem. If you're having connection issue, you may want to request for a tech to look at it if you're not savy with it. This post has been edited by danmooncake: Jun 26 2009, 10:45 AM |

QUOTE(vb1 @ Jun 26 2009, 10:13 AM) VB1Wow!! connecting First Trade with Celcom BB 384kbps!!! I am surprised. Thanks for ur info. It's my mistake to underestimate Celcom as I mistaken both Celcom and TM share the same Internet Gateway. Do you trade after midnight 12.00am??? Streamyx is really sucks!! Day or night, it is so difficult to access China websites and Northern Europe sites....... This post has been edited by SunshineCa: Jun 26 2009, 12:31 PM |

QUOTE(danmooncake @ Jun 26 2009, 05:54 AM) syong, yes, wanted to buy, but kia si.Have you have been monitoring BAC these few days since the market has pulled back with DJ almost dropping below the 8200 support level? It seems BAC support has been great and lowest is at $12. Therefore, better BUY some now before it rockets to $20 or higher. Stay away from Citi for now.. BAC is a great buy now. worry it will drop further. how about mgm? company making loss n now at 6++ just wonder what make genting go in at 7. any comments? |

I think like Dreamer suggested, if you like banks.. better go with index fund that tracks financial sector than buying one BANK because if you have limited fund, it is very risky. Go study this index: XLF |

QUOTE(W.ROOK @ Jun 21 2009, 12:51 PM) hi norman, i am actually worry too with this chart;You got a big portfolio there. It is very true you know, "The rich gets Richer" By looking at your holdings which are mainly Blue Chips I am very sure there are plenty of money to come in the future. The current downturn represents a great opportunity to invest. We don't know for sure if the market has reach it's bottom but in the long run..... Just look at the Dow's Graph. but everysingle govemant is playing politic economic now , u guy think this govermant allow their composite index to fall again like somewhere 1985,? before ko coca cola company come to near 5usd i will use all my money buying at somewhere around 20usd already... sit and think is it rational dowjone to come down somewhere 4000-5000? |

QUOTE(normanTE @ Jun 27 2009, 11:52 PM) i am actually worry too with this chart; Don't think so..

I don't think we won't revisit 6500 or below again because everyone is pumped about recovery. DJ may hover around 8200~8800 for a while.. until more good news that companies actually profiting, housing actually recovering and unemployment is lowering. Seem strongly resisting at 8800. Btw, do you like KO (Coca-Cola) that much? This post has been edited by danmooncake: Jun 28 2009, 01:44 AM |

i think mr market= behave like a women, u will never understand them. every country and nation have stimulus package, even malaysia, indonesia.... that mean goverment are very much concern of our current situation, even free country like america, their goverment also involve in financial institution, which shouldnt be happening.. ko--> i bought earlier at 40usd 500 share, with their dividend are unquestionally solid, thought only 3% after tax. but they are brand with global influence..it is also one of the buffet greatest asset, but let me mind u he bought at 5usd pershare.. pep--> equally good, i have 500share of this company with my average price 50usd. just follow buffet principal... |

Guys....I'm been invest into USA stock quite some time ago. No doubt the USA is very volitility compare to the local. So, we really can do a day trade. So far, I'm using the CIMB Cross border to trade. But I found that each buy/sell transaction, it charge me minimum usd25 which is cost a lot.
After that, My friend recommend to me a usa broker house which listed in the Nasdaq. its market cap is more than usd9billion (which is expensive than CIMB Group). this brokerage house only charge me $9.99 regardless any unit I buy/sell. At the first time when I banking $2K. they also free for me 500 free trades within 30 days. So, with this good promotion. I can earn big money. and save a lot. If you want to know more, PM me. |

If you want to know more, PM me. << If you want to know more, PM me.>> 1) Please stop this kind of BS. 2) If you cannot PUBLICLY tell people what broker that this is, what are you trying to HIDE?? Please do not post. 3) Buy cost USD $10 and Sell cost USD $10. For each buy and sell, you lose $20 on fee. You have ONLY USD $2K. That means 1%. You THINK that you can make money from day trade?? 4) Do the MATH. 5) Anyhow, for USD $2K, it is BETTER for you to learn this PAINFUL lesson earlier. Dreamer |
