i wish to be involve in the share market soon. And i believe Online trading will be my 1st choice.

I have read the thread and everyone is talking about OSK, HLe and Cimb. I am currently have a Cimb i-Trade game account (which i believe simulates the real system) and i found it as average only. Java is very heavy. But uptime still ok.

Anyway i wish to ask a few questions:
1. What is the first step i should do? Open a CDS account? Can it be done in any bank including Public Bank?
2. So i understand that e-trade will be under Nominee account. What is the downside and potential problem compare to a direct account, beside no annual report and extra middle stock holder house?
3. What is the potential risk of e-trade comparing with direct brokage trading?
4. Anyone have experience using Public bank's online share trading?Because my major account is at PB so wudn't it be easier to using the e-trade system from the same bank? Or you guys still tink HLe is the best?
5. How long it takes to start from applying new e-trade account/CDS account to buy/sell share? Can be done in 1 day?
6. What document i need for the application processes?

Thanks in advance =)

it seems like public bank's share trading system is not famous along LYN. Anyway after considering future convenience and tested the demo system myself, i had chosen public bank's PB Sharelink rather than HLe. Will be able to start trading next week ^^

But i do hope there's some feedback on Public PB Sharelink system instead from others..

thanks cherroy btw
