it wasn't that stable in the past when it was java based.

now no more dependent on java, been very stable for past few months.

on one condition - do not use internet explorer. use chrome or firefox.

no. but i hv used the app on ipad. ipad and pc, all good.

maybe u guys can declare if u r cimb preferred customers or not.

i think cimb treat diff customers with different bank accs with diff trading acc types differently.

total maybe 100 permutations or types... so better dun get upset or happy w/o knowing why...

well, maybe diff now, so gud 4 u, market bad gua...?

itrade (not clicks trader) rm12 min below/above 100k/intraday was only for preferred, last time. others higher.

ah... my bad, i erred..

looks like rm12 min is applicable to all itrade.

only the % brokerage is diff for preferred vs non-preferred.

my apologies...

yr orders are by default for 1 day, i.e. that day u key it in. if unmatched it will expire at end of trading day.

to incr trading limit, either u deposit money into the trust acc or buy and pay up some shares. diff for diff types of itrade accs, best u call itrade for details.

just for those interested and who may not know...

on cimb itrade now, u can trade many foreign bourses online - singapore, hong kong, usa, thailand, indonesia.

for usa, i was pleased to find out that starting sometime this year, even etf's (exchange traded funds) can be traded like any other stock.

i had same problem! went back to version 1.0 to do that...

later, found it at the top right corner.

this version 2.0 is not very stable yet, seems to get "we regret..." quite often.

is yr account click trader (nominee) or cds acc?

if cds, it depends what yr outstanding instructions are - to transfer proceeds back to bank acc or stay in trust. if former, u must call them not to transfer but to pay subsequent purchase. if latter, it is auto to pay any outstanding.

clicks trader, i do not know the procedure, maybe answer here:
http://www.itradecimb.com.my/index.php?ch=gen_faq#



see, there are several types of accounts with itrade; you need to say what type yr acc is for people to be sure to answer you. this, i find frequently causes confusion with many new itrade users...

in this case, u can relax.

the debit will be auto done on t+4, no more showing, the net available funds balance will then show.

check client summary everyday, you can see the credits and debits, when they are due, etc.

second row: watchlist-stock info-chart-buy-sell-....

touch buy, see table bottom right.

on top of all that has been said:

yr paid up shares serve as collateral to trade.
note: trade = buy n sell within t+3, not buy and pick up. to pick up, only the available cash counts.

this facility is a double edged sword - u get to leverage and goreng if u want.
u may make great profits or lose yr shares if u r not careful.
do think about it.
i assure u almost everyone here has been thru that - sad losses and hearty profits within minutes!

u get used to it after a while.

v2 ok for me on pc.

v2 has some bug on ipad, gotta revert to v1.

i think it's like this...

for nomimee acc, yr assigned broker will email send u the info incl dates and amount to pay. there may be a processing fee to it.

for cds acc, the co. itself will mail u the prospectus, u submit forms n bank draft. once competed, the new shares will appear in yr cds account.

i am.

if it was all set up in the beginning, u can trade anytime. just be aware of the brokerage% and the min.

us stocks thread:
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3397675/+600

r u under cds or nominee account?

if cds, yr current paid stocks allow you to trade t+3, no need to deposit beforehand. pay up only when u want to pick up; the contract note which will have the amt in rm.

nominee... not sure but i wud think like bursa stocks, u need to deposit the rm first. the exchange rate is fixed at the time u do a transaction - u can see the buy/sell rates in the order box.

u can:

1. sell 300 rights.
balance 62 rights... unless they r worth lot, a waste of time trying to sell as odd lots as it is hassle, price will be low, u may not get anything left after brokerage fees. if unsold or unexercised, all rights will expire, become wortheless, nothing else happens.

2. complete the exercise, buy 45 shares with 360 rights. u can also apply for 6 excess rights to get to another 8 for 1 share. no idea how easy or hard, worth the trouble or not. note these new 45 shares, if u don't have other odd lots, will become an odd lot itself - can't sell online as lots of 100, can only sell thru odd lot broker, lower price.

stamp duty, u do it at certain post office; not all have this service. google/call to find one nearest to you.

bank draft - go to bank, fill up form, q up and pay only!

yes, it is quite a hassle for it becos this cds acc procedure. if nominee acc, the broker will do all for you for a small charge.

message "not allowed to trade".... does the message come out when u highlight it or displayed by default? can u give me an example, just the ticker?

i hv not noticed that in any of the boards.

it is possible it hasn't been activated correctly, so u shud give them a call.

It was down at 9.

Ok now, at least for v1.

Do u find v2 less stable? I get problems with v2 on iPad, e.g. can't load watchlist. V1 ok.


V2 is fine on pc, though...
