I would suggest you google around, and do some virtual trading/investment first before really commiting into it.

How would you earn? Most probably the loss chance is greater than gain if blindly jump into it.

It is no harm done to be late. It is better be late rather than sorry (loss your hard-earned/saved money).

Better equip yourself with enough knowledge about the market before starting, otherwise will be paying expensive "tuition" fee out of it. Also take the leisure time to gain market knowledge, while concentrate in core study or job is always the main priority.

Can join us in the discussion, which some forumers may give some good advice, experience and information.

Cheers.

For nominee account, it depends on the efficiency of the investment house.

Read more here
thanks to lktatmy

did ya hold the share before ex-date?

Stock broking account got 2 type currently.

1. Direct account - You open a trading account with investment house + CDS account under your own name. So share is held directly under your own name.

2. Nominee account - You open a trading account but share is held under the investment house whereby you don't open a CDS account at all. Typically example would be share trading platform through Maybank2U etc.

the share is still with me now. even my other dividen which from other account i had already receive. i check with them they say have to wait for 2 weeks. fine. this week will be the 3rd week already

Wuu .. I'm open an account to use CIMB ITrade, that means I'm in nominee account? According to iklatmy blog, they are going to charge for the dividends ..

Now, there's a third party behind and the payment will be delay and got hidden charge?

Is like that one, maybank charge long long ago liao, cimb going to charge for atm card also

not going to charge the ATM, but already start to charge. you can close the account and applt for the simple account and no charges for atm

hehe than u are wrong, i am younger..just turn 17.. been very interested in this kind of topic... bought few books about the art of invetsing and so on..

wanted to invest, but again, with my age, do u think my parents will allow me? * unless i am from a rich family *

KNM was the counter i pay most attention to... guess how pain i felt when i saw the price rising from 0.4 to 0.5

come on you see but doesnt mean you can get the price ........ heheheheehe

any how parent not the matter la !!!!! come on

im only 21 this year all the thing i pay by my self not totally all except my petrol hehehe .

i start interest while im the same age as you ........ be patient and wait .......with your age you can`t do most of the thing by your self now ....


above 18 la .... wait and study more about the thing you like .

Charge for dividend??what do you mean?? I asked my remiser if there is commission taken out of the maybank trading account, she said no

Eg. Dividend = RM10
Handling fee = (RM2)
Misc. fee = (RM3)
Net amount to you = RM5
For nominee account only.

hey guys, about brokerage fee.. I m thinking OSK is charging abit too much compared to jupiter and RHB? The brokerage rate for me is 0.42%. I always do cash up front, can I negotiate with my dealer regarding upfront online trading?

i dont really think so cause you are dealling online .and 0.42 is the basic brokerage fee . why dont you try go for jupiter ? is totally free for registration.

Most people determine prices to enter by technical analysis. By looking at past trends and charts, they can roughly guess where the price would most likely attract the most interest therefore preventing it from falling further.

Another way of determining a low price is by way of fundamental analysis. If the company as a whole is worth more than RM1.00, then the share prices would never go below it.

These are the 2 basic ways of determining the "hold price" or the "bottom". But be aware that these are just guesses and estimations. No one can predict the future consistently and there will be times when the direction can totally change.

There are several online articles in Investopedia that explains these terms and a lot more.

okay.........

so can i be able to research on how the company work on thier share market and get to know what is the force to hold up our stock ??

I don't understand your first question, but to answer your 2nd one, 'force' that hold up a stock is normally the buying interest of the public and investors which also include the company itself.

No, market is unpredictable, there are plenty of reason why people want to buy a share or the share, from technical and fundamental, people tips/recommendation, even people are 'fall in love' with particular stock because of previous good experience etc or simply syiok its name also can. Haha.

Whether the stock can hold on a price or not depend solely on market force ie. supply (seller) and demand (buyer).

Technical analysis evolved from pattern of trade which predicted there are plenty of people want to buy (support level), and resistance level (which more people tends to sell) from the historical data, etc, and its variance.

Fundamental analysis is based on how one value the company in term of company can generate return rate to the shareholders.
