If

I bought stock A on Monday 90 lots - price 0.30
I bought another stock A on Tuesday 100 lots - price 0.20
I sold stock A on Tuesday (same day) - 100 lots - price 0.25

Do I get intra?

Thanks
* I called the dealer who handle my account and she said it's an intra but my past experience is opposite .. they average the price ..  doh.gif

You will get intraday commission charges.

Intra means you buy and sell on the same day, which brokers house can offer special commission rate.

Nothing to do with average price or not.

Er, sorry but really noob question here. When I go to a site like The Star and look at the volume, it says something like "Vol '00" which means I have to add a couple of zeroes to the number. My question is, is that number the number of lots (1,000 shares) or actual number of shares?
*
Most will qoute the volume in term of lots. While currently KLSE per lot is x 100 shares.

hi there, a very beginner question would like to ask all the pro here.plz...do help me smile.gif

Basically a company's share flow on market is about 10-30% and the rest is hold by own company management team,
other company/corporation, funds , bank and etc.
My question is.......... the price of a share in market is decide by who?who decide the price for going up or down?
is it the price going up/down simply depend on buyer and seller only?

some more, we know that a company come into market is for raise money,my question is
how a company/corporation raise money after their released IPO?
i mean like during IPO price is RM2,
after that the price raise to RM4, What is their benefit in this raise of the price?
does the raise of price do benefit the company?

sorry for such long question,but i think reli does help for those learner,any pro can do help me to answer those question?
a very very thanks for helping.

Share price is dictated by the market force aka buyer and sellers in the market. If the rest of 80 or 95% of shareholding doesn't intend to buy and sell, the it is the rest market force dictate the share price.

Share price up or down doesn't affect daily company business operation. So it doesn't benefit the company. Having said that, share price is a reflection of company fundamental strength.

Let's say I'm a bit boring and want to play with the numbers, if suddenly I intent to buy stock A for 20 shares and I enter buy on the system 1 for each 5 seconds for 20 times, is there any problem with that? Maybe they charged more?  hmm.gif

Just wonder around ..  hmm.gif
Thank you

It is exacly same with 20 shares with 1 time provided it is within the same day.

Contract is counted per day basic per counter, not transaction.

They will treat as 20 shares per contract as well in your case, not different with 20 share in 1 transaction.

I am still quite blur abt it.

Let me illustrate:

The brokerage fees is 0.7% or RM40, whichever higher.

Say I buy Share A (total RM1000) & Share B (total RM10,000) in the same day, so the brokerage fees applicable to me is either RM40 or RM77, so it should be RM77, right ?

Say I sell Share A and Share B in the same day, then the brokerage fee is same as above (RM77), correct ?

And how about the case of buying and selling in the same day, is it consider as 1 contract, or two (1 for buy, 1 for sell) ?
*
Basically it is 2 contracts but it can be treated as intraday trade which majority charges as low as 0.15% brokerage fee.

Just it will be compiled it in one statement.

What is the Par value mean for? shakehead.gif
im a little bit confuse rclxub.gif ,please help me thks.

When a company start, you have initial capital aka paid up capital.

Let say you start with 100K capital, so in your company the money is represented by either 1 share of Par value of 100K
or
100K shares of Rm1 par value each.

There is no strict or regulation at what level of the par value should be. But for convenience sake, a lot is using Rm1 as par value.

For commission based remiser, it all depend on the remiser willingness.

But generally what I came across is that those they don't know much (or stranger that you all call it), is that they impose low amount of credit limit to limit their risk aka they don't allow you to trade and have outstanding balance not more than certain amount they wish to allow.

As whatever the client bought and have outstanding balance, even the clients don't pay up or run away, they don't lose the whole amount generally because remiser will force sell the outstanding share purchased and bare the losses from the differentiation between the initial purchase and forced-sell price.

It is as same as doing ordinary business only. Some do give credit, some need cash term.

Hm for new online trading account, how do we know if we allow to trade T+3?

If let's say i trade T+3, and i don't sell it on third day, the broker will help me to sell it at whatever price right? Is this what you called "force sell"? From there if there is price difference the broker will then debit/credit my account?
*
T+3 is the standard outstanding period allowed.

T+3 means you have to settle the outstanding within the period. Generally brokers house will force sell on T+4.
Force sell means they sell on behalf on you which they will throw the share out whenever there is a buyer or meet the buyer price.

hi, why my remiser keep on decreasing my online credit for trading? did they use my money for themselves or??

thank for advices.
*
There are lot of reason.

Generally credit decrease is due to non-pay up by clients previously aka payment history no good, or the remiser credit facilities being lowered down by the broking firm.

Or they want to limit online fraud risk.

Can simply ask them the reason, they generally will tell.

dear pro's, plz help me clarify this issue,

One of my contra share was force sold in the afternoon. There seems to be a problem here whereby it has been sold twice. eg: KNM 20lots was sold at 40lots. And there seems to be a negative 20lots of KNM in my portfolio.
My remisier is now telling me that the penalty has to be paid by me, and its coming to about RM1000 when my full trade amount is just RM5000...
In dont think the penalty has to be borne by me coz the online system doesnt allow me to trade twice and def doesnt allow me to short sell...

Plz help me on this issue. I think my remisier is just trying to pass the blame to me...
*
Penalty?

Just "buy-in" at 10 tick above to cover the short, which means 5 cents loss for each share.

I don't think online system has the ability to prevent people from short sell. Generally their system won't link with CDS one nor the system will check the CDS account first before allow you to sell.

For you case, both side also neglience on the issue. No offence. smile.gif

Always can talk/discuss on the spot when the event happen just like what Iklatmy stated.

Warrant gearing has nothing to do with company debt issue.

Warrant gearing means how much the warrant able to gear on mothershare, ie. if mother share rise 10%, how much warrant fair value can rise in tandem with the mothershare.

The higher the gearing means you can achieve more gain in % in warrant compared to the mothershare.

Eg. a warrant price is 0.20, while exercise price is 2.00. Mothershare is 2.00

So whenever the mothershare rise 10 cents, warrant fair price also rise 10 cents.

But if you invested in mothershare you gain 5% , while for warrant it means a gain of 50%. So it has a gear ratio (or gearing) of 10.

If the warrant has little gearing ratio, it is not attractive. The higher the gearing, the more attractive the warrant is, but bear in mind, the exercise price also an important factor as well. As for high geared warrant generally higher exercise. Higher exercise price could means warrant is worthless if mothershare fall below the exercise price.

You need to consider on both front.

errmmm ..please do help some noob question..

option 1 : buy counter A ..price go up then keep..then later average up
option 2 : buy counter A.. price go up..lock profit..then buy back the share at lower price(may miss the boat or end up in wrong boat).

which option is better? or is there better strategy?
*
Option 1 : you must ensure your stock is fundamental sound over the long term.

Option 2 : most people think it is workable to maximise the profit, but in reality, most people stumbled on it. Gain a few ten cents but miss out a few ringgit of profit or go into pirate boat. Why?
Current situation is a good example, the market has nice run from March low to until now, consecutive 3-4 months time. If you opt the strategy, I can bet 90% of the people would already sold around April, so how can buy back at lower price. See how many people managed to buy KNM at its low around 30-40 cents, but most sold at around 50-60 cents with the hope to buy back later at lower price.

Main problem of this strategy, you try to time the market.

Option 2 is workable if the price indeed goes way beyond its fundamental suggesting aka way overvalued.

Hi, I have a question about dividends.

I see that some dividends are declared the following ways.

a. 7.5 sen single tier tax exempt dividend.
b. 10.0 sen dividend less 25% tax.

Both (a) and (b) also pays out a net of 7.5 sen. But why they announce it differently? Is it because in (b) we can claim back the tax credits?
*
Yes.

based on the PER (price to earning ratio) which normally measured in times...
if a company is over than 20x PER then that company is overvalued... less than 10x is undervalued...

this is only what i know... nod.gif

----------------------------

and i wanna ask something regarding warrants...

if i purchased some warrants, can i sell it back in the open market?
or i am not allowed to resell it and will have to exercise the warrant?
*
For PER, becareful using this figure as this figure is based on last year financial result, so it can sometimes misleading as well, as what we concern most is future down the road, not what happened previously.

Also there is no definite say 20x must be expensive or 10x is undervalued. It depended on lot of factors.

If FD interest rate is 10%, even stock at 10x PER is not undervalued. Undervalued/PER is a comparison figure which how much the stock can give return to investors.

PER 10x means company can generate 10% on your purchased share price. So if FD can earn you 10% at much lower risk, why investors want to look for 10% from the stock that carry higher risk one?

The reason why most people said 20x PER is overvalued, because it merely generate you 5% return rate which is too low for some risky asset for equities unless company can improve the EPS in the future.

Bursa only send statement periodically, no matter how many lot you have.

Just to add:

If there is no transaction, then CDS statement will only be sent like 6 months once.

If there is constantly got transaction, they will send it monthly.

For those nominee account, you have no CDS, so KLSE won't send you any letter, whatever transaction is between you and the brokers that offering nominee service.

Hi all =),

regarding the buying and selling procedures,both of them require T+3 each?so,what if ive predicted that the shares will drop on day1,so i contacted the broker and said that i would like to sell out all the shares,but then the procedures require 3 processing days,does it mean that i will face a total loss of 3days??

what shares are recommended for a moderate investor?

info:im still a student,without any experience and about to get headaches due to tons and tons of information regarding shares,but then i would like to start learning and get involved in investments  blush.gif 

Thanks:)
*
Sorry, don't know what you are asking on.

T+3 is the day buyer need to pay for their purchase, for seller it is the day they receive the money from buyer.

I would say understand about share first before asking for shares recommendation. Don't get involved until fully understand. This is a 'fire' place can easily be burned, if don't know about it. smile.gif
