I am using TradingView as my main platform.

For retail trader in MY, too bad not many choices available from Brokers as the market are dominated by two vendors, good or bad u hv to take it , its free

But no worry, another platform coming soon from the Dark Site

Im currently using Rakuten but the platform is fkn slow lately because of punter and goreng uncles&aunties. Wish to change to a new broker. My main reason for staying with Rakuten is due to the cheap fees as my trades are mostly well below RM1k so every sen of cost would mean a lot to me... Is CIMB that much worth it compared to Rakuten? and what additional features that I get with CIMB that Rakuten doesn't offer? Thanks for the help and suggestions

Do you guys dividend got withhold 30% for us tax when buying us stock with cimb?

All US stocks will have WHT of 30% on paid dividend regardless of platform.

i see, i thought if use malaysia platform then no need to have the 30% withholding of the dividend. then have to find way to manually claim it back

I'm not sure but I couldn't see a way to get back the 30% WHT for dividend received.
Maybe my broker is not based in Malaysia.

noob question

what is the # symbol means? no of what? how do u read this column?


Attached thumbnail(s)

The number (#) = number of orders.

In your screen shot,

Best Bid Price = 0.54, with a total of 2.05M units from 73 orders

If you are looking for cheap fees, there is nothing to compare between rakuten and cimb itrade. Both the platforms are different in nature - rakuten being a nominee account. Please read up the differences and make your own decision if the little bit of extra fees is worth it. Otherwise, call your broker and ask, if you can do a cash up front account and reduce the fees.

Same as cimb trade beyond and a few more... they are nominee account... and, look at the settlement days allowed when you register a new brokerage.
