okay ppl I got 2,000 in my bank. If i wanna to play share, is tat possible ?

beside that, i not those aggressive player .. i am like buy and put there up to 1 or 2 years then only sell or 1 year later only sell it

still a student



need pro help .. thx

its a tough call bro, but of course you have to start somewhere.. so of course its possible, but in your case i wouldn't say play shares..looks to me more of a long term investment (since you're looking at 1-2 years).

if you ask me, i would suggest you to look at fundamental based stocks, of course that you'll have to spend some time researching and finding the right one that would suit you, and also something that you'll be comfortable in terms of your capital..

another thing, if you only have RM2000 in your bank account, you may not want to put all of it in the stock market, its better to keep a portfolio thats diversified.

im not a pro, so this is all the advice i can give you, bro..in anyway, its good to start of somewhere, we all did so hope your journey becomes a profitable one for you in the long run.

what is ur expected return from ur principle? 2k is very min to invest in share..brokarage min RM40. u see..
save more capital 1st..meanwhile learn/read 1.www.klse.com.my - rules & regulation.2. few Propectus.3.simple financial statement. u can do it...

Rm 2K is not enough, try and save more till u have about Rm 5K..

Rm 2K probably entitle you to acquire some penny stock or small cap stocks.... most likely you can only afford up to 1 lot.

Unless your planning to play T+3 to finance ur investment (very risky).

the mid range and blue chips u can forget about it.

1. u have to take into account losses
2. the price of share that u have acquire
Rm 1? or Rm 2?
3. can u tolerate losing up to 100% of your investment. If not than at least how many %?
4. Whats ur strategy, define it and stick to it.

oh okay.... i look at this secure or strong reputation like education share (inti) or PBBANK-CD.... or AirAsia ...

last time i played the bursa pursuit .....it helps ?

bursa pursuit is merely a fictitious game with fictitious funds... in the real word its a totally different ball game.

PPBbank - CD ? Isn't it a call warrant ??
If so i suggest u search for topics on warrant, the method is slightly different when investing in call warrants... risk is slightly higher than shares.

As for inti and airasia ... no comment

since you said you wanted to buy and put there up to 1 or 2 years
call warrants like PBBANK-CD is not your choice as CW has a short life time (6 months or so only)

you may consider getting 100 shares PBBANK

so any suggestion ....where i should start ?


which companies ....i should register or watever..

"still a student"

if ur still a student my personal opinion is stick to your studies no offence...

share trading can be time consuming and tedious, if ur new try and read and gain more knowledge first dont jump immediately into trading. No point suggesting any counters, because if anyone says that that XYZ company counter is very good andyou will make tonnes of money from it I will say he/she is a lier.

Buying stock is a very subjective matter, it all depends on u reading the materials in the market and doing homework first before u rush in to the market and get slaughtered.

On the other hand, hope is not that bleak for u I suggest u start a unit trust account it works great in a bull market and steadier returns.

aiya....still want to go..
ok..
my opinion..for reference only..ok.
inti - could be stable but 1-2 yrs, dun know how much will growth..
air asia - high risk, hopefully it's ceo bagging his oil price/barrel shoot up...not sure how abt TUNE in the future..
pbbank - only buy below 10.80; for safer, take a 25% discount = 8.50 if u can wait...

in malaysia
nothing is possible

icic..thx for the advise ...

one more thing... i not playing share ,,,am i allow to monitor the flow or the change of the stock price (like bursa pursuit )

if yes...share the link here ..thx again

Oh student ah? Ok lah sell you cheap AIRASIA 100 shares @ $1.55 (student price) end of the year can break even

Better buy UT la...
Student ma... if you lost money, u wont be able to concentrate on your studies...

Ya la, get unit trust better, u dont really have to focus too much on it and u can get fairly decent long term returns. If ur really hard up on the KLSE, why not try an index tracker like the OSK KLCI tracker fund? The buying in price is fairly cheap, bout 1%, redemption 1%. And if u buy from HSBC they'll redeem half of the charges back to you.

But anyways, i think it entirely depends on ur risk appetite: can u accept that ur money may depreciate? Or do u want sumthing thats like capital guaranteed?If the latter then go Amanah Saham or sumthing la. Worse come to worse main kutu hahahaha

okay thx for the information....

just ask like wanna to buy a share ..we need an agent or remisier usually the service charge / commission how much ar ?

for stock market brokers are normally known as remisiers, u just have to walk into any Securities firm and they will recommend u any remisiers that are available. You will have to fill in some forms, dont forget to bring RM 10 to open a CDS account.

Commission is Rm 40 per way, round turn is RM 80. If u dont trade much the commission is non-negotiable

or refer to this thread, all you need to know about brokerage fees...

KLSE Stock Review

I'd say with RM2000 you're better off putting your money in some unit trust. Learn how to invest and then you can dive into the stock market. I doubt as a new investor you will be able to beat unit trust performance. Plus your funds are so limited and you are a student. However, I must add that your time horizon for investing is rather short and you can even lose money with unit trust if you only keep for a year or two. We dont know what the market will be like. A time line of 3-5years will be safer.

Here is an article about investing with very little money like your RM2000 - http://klsestockreview.blogspot.com/2007/0...rk-for-you.html
