Wah.... ... this afternoon i just open for iOCBC
Got any intro to Kim Eng broker. Coz I need to get a higher starting trading limit from usual because i got tompang lots. No broker intro need to cash upfront which i cant due to cash movement. I darm scared of poems high volume latency/ Need to upgrade their system le bah.
That's why nowadays I trade very little thru iocbc.  Why let them make too much money? It will be good to have more than 2 brokers.

| Cheap way of tricking the client to make dirty money.   It happened to me too.   First click, the response say you entered a wrong password, and second click actually the price figure changed to auto fill by the platform but the quantity never change.   Half a cent difference for cheating Brokers is a lot of money. |

Yea, yeah, I forgot to say that after the done price, both occasions I checked the counter party, it was indeed OCBC.   So I agree with Baberic that you have to be extra extra careful when you use iocbc to trade, because you can lose out on your target price to buy or sell.

Be careful when you use OCBC.  Sometimes you are " forced" to click a second time and then buy or sell price will be done (at the higher for buy and lower for sell) to your surprise. This is becos your price changed split seconds catch you unaware  before your clicked so you thought you have entered better price but you get  worse price.. It happened twice to me on different occasions, but cannot complain...who asked you not to be careful anyhow click.. Do be careful.

I am looking for a platform to trade. POEM always hang when volume too high so cannot trade. Even if the monitoring is good but cannot trade also no use right? Currently nobody knows that I trade regularly and I intend to keep it this way.

Why you dumped?  You can use this platform as a 'monitoring platform' if the platform seldom gives you problem. 
Buy / sell using the other one., or 'tonpang' your friend's account . So, the bank brokers (those who play monkey business with you) wont know what you sell or buy.

| Bank Brokerages (BB) very hard to trust.   You are mostly buying what they are selling.   Once a position is created, a position is controlled, so you find quarrels with lady luck. I think it is not luck, buy man made. You happen to be the victim.   Test one or two more positions, then better dump the BB |

Citibank now got good offer, go visit their website.    I hv yet to try, but,  this one no broker assisting, purely trading on your own and can only trade whatever cash  you have in the bank account...

Can consider. Is their rate cheaper then POEM?
