I called CS today and they said that:

1. i*tradePro is a software based training platform. You're paying for the licence to use all the fancy features.

2. i*trade is the web-based trading platform and it'll not be obsolete.

Why have to do that? Any particular reason?

I recalled that there's no necessity to deposit any money to the trading account until you bought any shares to settle.

I want to open a CDS account since the current one that I have with itrade is nominee CDS account. How can get it fast without have to go to Share Trading centre?

Intra-day (same day) trading brokerage fee is 0.15% while inter-day is 0.42%.

Meaning you don't have to pay for the usage/service.

Those are standard charge. There's no free lunch.

If your CDS account is not a nominee CDS account, you can transfer it.

How to get matched if the market hasn't opened. You can place an order and then you may want to observe the pre-trading session to see if your input order is being queued; otherwise, you may want to cancel/revise the order.

Your trading platform is able to show the pre-trading session at 8.30 am or 2.00 pm like normal session. If you observe clearly, you would able to see numbers are being "keyed in" into the queue and etc.

Pre-Opening Session

1. Enter, modify or delete orders
2. No order matching is done
3. Theoretical Opening Price (TOP) based on orders entered is dynamically calculated, and the last TOP calculated before opening time is set as the natural opening price
4. Order in order book is broadcasted

Filled == matched?

If matched, cannot modify.

There's a trial period and after that, you'll have to pay for it.

Ensure that the pop-up blocker is disabled. It uses platform similar FPX or CC with 3D Security.

How you sorted it out?

I wanted to propose you on clearing the Java cache from the platform itself and also clear all the temporary Internet files including the cookies. But I forgotten to do so and my Streamyx was down for the whole night yesterday. It has slipped my mind. I was experiencing a login trouble to CIMB Cross Border account last week and the CIMB Singapore CS asked me to do that.

I doubt that you can do it online.
