You have to check the conversion ratio and the exercise price.

Can I ask is it possible for a broker system to hang?

I was conducted a trade and I have the screen "order verifying" stuck for 20-30 seconds before sending to BMSB to get it executed.

From HLE by the way, anyone facing the same problem?

"All Matched" notification only comes out after 30 seconds.

Here's my experience:

- Was trying to buy Tcubes at 0.43 @ 300 lots. So click send, "order verifying" for 10 seconds before sending and become "order confirmed". Price of Tcubes already at 0.445. So I assume it moves so fast that I didn't manage to buy Tcubes at price I wanted. Anyway so I click on cancelling order - but was told it failed and ask me to refer to helpdesk for more information. This usually happens so I retry cancelling, it writes cancelling...

Price of Tcubes falling fast. Initially at 0.37 only tell me all matched at 0.435. Fuuu

Anyone has any logical explanation to this?

As of now, I plan to change broker to Jupiter, this is not the first time and I cannot afford such a costly mistake. Requested withdrawal of all money on Thursday morning from Hong Leong but broker told me to calm down and told me she trying to figure out what happened. Told her I cannot accept it anymore and requested for everything to be credited to my savings account by Friday. Till now also my savings account still kosong

Yes you can but you need to have access to the trading system.
You can always go and register with various broker house and not trading until you're ready to trade.

If you think it is a hassle for you to register you can always rely on websites such as shareinvestor.com.my but do remember there is a 15 minutes delay.

Why would you multiply it by par value? If the announcement says it is 50 cents per share then you just take 0.50 and multiply by 1,000 shares which give you RM 500.

I see so it is based on the announcement.
Thanks for sharing.

Try OSK, I heard they are hiring.

On top of basic?
Or the 2k is the basic?

Got how much savings in your account?
Better stockpile as much food, medical supplies and oil and gas.

Yes, plus contract and stamp duty fees and any losses if applicable.

Nope but you can queue.

I am waiting for more convincing futures answer. The opening green is very weak. It can go red anytime.

CIMB charge RM 10. Hong Leong IB is free. No minimum amount but the minimum brokerage fee is RM 12.
I suggest you to trade more than 3k to make a break-even with the brokerage fee.

Yes. Brokerage fee depends on the IB. Some charges based on per transaction basis some on contract basis (means the total purchases and sales are sum up in the end and only after that brokerage is applied).

1 lot is 100 shares. You are correct.

No it is not.

There's still stamp duty and clearance fees.

I think for the sake of convenience you should really register for investment account with your preferred bank (if the bank has IB). This is to facilitate the deposit and withdrawing process. Don't be like me, make withdrawal on Monday till now still floating at my savings account.

Short selling means:

Selling shares that you do not own and buy back later. It is generally useful if you think a particular stock's price is going down. You sell something that you do not own and buy at cheaper price at a later date.

However, it is prohibited in Bursa Malaysia.

Yes you have to pay again for clearing fees and stamp duty.

For fast trade involving split seconds buying and selling decisions, HLB is not recommended.

I think it is best for you to calculate the ratios for your own usage if you think these information will influence your investment decision. Sometimes information contained on websites are not accurate.
