oic, thanks H86,
so, if my IPO application has been approved, the shares will appear in my trading account?

besides, after register for both CDS a/c and trading account at Maybank. I received 2 mail.
The first one is from Bursa stating my CDS a/c number,
The second mail is from Maybank which state my SMF maring a/c number, trading account number and CDS a/c no.

However, the CDS a/c no. in both Maybank's mail and Bursa's mail are different. Could any1 tell me the reason?

Yes stock can frequently drop to below purchase value, but it cannot be negative. The most a stock can go down is to 0. You need not pay anything other than losing all your capital.

3 main players in KLSE - institutional, retailers and foreigners.

Out of curiousity, roughly how many foreigners are there and who are the biggest 3 (e.g.,Aberdeen?)?

Are they based in M'sia or do they trade via wire overseas?

Thanks.

hello,

can anyone pls enlighten me what is the cost associated to buy/sell a stock through online platform?

Or in other words, what is the % capital gain required from a stock in order to breakeven?

If i buy 100 unit of share A at RM 1.50 and 5 months later, i sold it at RM 4.50 , whats the net profit?

may does all the bank will have the same time for us for the overnight queue for tomorrow market? From what I am using RHB now, I can only enter the queue at 5.10pm...I tried CIMB, and it allowed me to enter queue at 5pm.

I might be wrong. But if there is diff btw banks, the 10min is a huge different in high volume shares! Does anyone share the same experience with me?

I thought the share could be like holding the share and get the income from the particular company distribute to each if the share holder every year or some gift from them?? Instead of just trading and earn from the price gap?

hello bro&sis,

i have doubt here lah,

i hold this share for a dividend till the ex date...however till now i dont get any pay for the dividend. why ya?

Single tier final dividend of 2%.

Kindly be advised of the following :

1) The above Company's securities will be traded and quoted [ "Ex - Dividend" ]
as from : [ 8 May 2014 ]

2) The last date of lodgement : [ 12 May 2014 ]

3) Date Payable : [ 21 May 2014 ]
               

Bros, wanna confirm this.

Example:

1) If i wanna buy 10 lots of share at RM1.00/unit, but no one is selling at my price, so I wont get to buy that share. Eg: I wanna buy RM1.00, people wanna sell at RM1.05. Correct?

2) Lets say I manage to buy 10 lots, I wanna sell when it goes up to RM2 (original RM1), and only one person wanna buy 1lot at that price, so there will be 9 lots that isnt sold. Correct?

3) If that 9 lots isnt sold, then I wont be able to collect my profit. Correct?

I am a college student. My main aim is to open trading and CDS account so that I can buy shares. The first investment company I think of is Maybank Investment Sdn Bhd because it is popular. Or can u guys introduce any investment company that is good for trading shares? I have few questions to ask in here.

1) In order to open Maybank trading account and CDS account. Do I need a saving account in Maybank first? If yeah, does that mean when I buy shares online the money is deducted from my saving account from Maybank?

2) I have seen Maybank website online and there are 3 packages of Maybank saving account. Maybank2u Savers (2.25% interest, minimum RM250 deposit) , Kawanku Saving Account (0.35-1.65% interest), and Basic Savings Account (0.35-1.65% interest and require minimum Rm20 deposit).

But when I went to Maybank counter to inquire about it, they say there is only one type of saving account and it offers 0.03% of interest p.a only and if no transaction within 3 months they will block your account and have to pay RM8 annually. But from Maybank website I didn't see such package. May i know is it whether the Maybank website didn't update or the staffs there didn't know there are other type of saving account available?

3) Is it possible to buy/sell shares online all by myself without calling broker to do things for me?

4) May I know why with a nominee CDS account we can't buy IPO shares? Is it because IPO shares are riskier?

5) I have read book that says buying share is better because it offers 8%, or 10% interest rate etc.. compared to Fixed deposit which is lower. The question is do we know how much interest rate the company's share offers before buying?

6) I have already read some local books about basic stock trading. Should I read those technical analysis, moving average, fundamental analysis books first before entering into stock trading or get practical first?

I know, but I can't think of a way why people would invest via an nominee account.
 

If trading account is where I put my money in and buy/sell via broker.

But what I dont understand is why they want me to open saving account with Maybank first before opening Trading and CDS account? What has the money in saving account got to do with that?

hm....got a question, how can I see my queue order?

for example, let say I want to buy a share at RM0.10 for 200 lot. And now there's 5000 lot being queue to buy it at RM0.10 at this very moment.

after few hours of trading, the queue to buy at RM0.10 might varies, so how can I know that what position I am in now? How can I know I need how many more lot of share being sell at RM0.10 before my price is being match?

Thanks.
