I understand your second part, but what you mean by "I can see it working is an at-or-below 2.30 price order, because you can't really do a fixed 2.30 order." Mind to elaborate more?

I mean you cannot say sell at 2.30 exactly, can you? Because there is very little chance the price is going to stay at 2.30 exactly long enough for anyone to do anything.

So it can only be 2.30 or below.

LOL have you even used an online brokerage ? most of them have charts, and tons of info for fundamentals traders

I always use online trading.
The so called charts are basic charts.
You know what are technical charts?
Those with indicators like moving average, bollinger bands, OBV, RSI, etc..
I don't think there is any online broker which provide that...

Um.. there's RHB Invest. I think they've got everything.

Okok, it is much clearer now.


Even RHB has, you can't think of many stock broker which have the same features, don't you? They are still improving slowly. okk argument is still valid. Our online broker is still not matured like other countries yet. Slowly lar, Malaysia Boleh punya. What to do? Just wait for another 2-3 years, haha!

Hi OKK, i find some info which might be helpful to you, though not complete.

Thanks
Actually what I need now is the stop loss order thingy coz for technical charts, I am using Businessweek website to get it, which is quite comprehensive already.

Online trade still in infancy period for local investment house. Although it will improve overtimes, personally think the progress is still relatively slow.

Thank you for sharing the interesting site.

I doubt Bursa is going to introduce the new system sooner than expected because for years the stock brokers are restructuring and i do not think they have the capacity financially to invest heavily into new computer systems. They just manage to make back some money a few years ago. They also have to raise funds to buy other smaller co and setting up branches. In future , they have to fight hard for businesses. In fact, some sold off their buildings and rent back.

A good new system also has to depend on telecom fast lines ( if slow like the internet lines) , everything will be choked up. Bursa cannot afford down time like the banks do ( cimb, hong leong ). Even STI suffered some set backs a few months ago. The new system has to be re tested and trial runs for a long time before the actual implementation. It can be out dated too if taking too long to test. Remember, online trading is an internet based system. How to implement such a new system if our internet is so slow and number of people using online is not that many.

When CIMB merged with SBB, in fact there were many off line days because computer people have to know each other computer system well before doing the actual talking.

Bursa is good at preparing the blueprints ( copy, cut and paste ), but slow on actual implementations.

Just my 2 sen opinion. Do not hope too much.
