I'm using Hong Leong eBroking and I also have other brokerage accounts. I still think Hong Leong is the best with its 0.1% fees and excellent technical/customer support.

Based on experience shared by others, sometimes cheaper fees is not always better.

At first thinking to open trading account with ECM, but after reading these, i need to consider other broker now. Anyone tried CIMB Click? They offers 0.0388% and i am thinking to open account with them.

Posted by jacklew > 2012-03-08 17:13 | Report Abuse

hi jc, consider itrade. not bad. cimb click needs to maintain at least RM10k in the account.

Posted by tungyp > 2012-03-08 17:55 | Report Abuse

I am using itrade and now rhb, charting wise rhbinvest is better. I think unless the website has problem, else technical support is redundant. Anyone else can recommend a cheaper place. Only after I register with RHBinvest, I found out from the people here there are cheaper rate elsewhere.

Hey, how many of you switch brokerage accounts in the past? Personally I've switched from OSK to Hong Leong bank. The process was quite simple and fast, and HL bank paid the switching fees to transfer my stocks over.

I have to agree with many of you here that Hong Leong's support is really fast and good. It is worthy of its 5 stars rating here!

Previously I was also considering opening a new account with another broker because of its "lowest" fee. But since there are so many negative comments on them, I will hold back and stick to my current broker for now.

Posted by jc_87 > 2012-03-14 15:50 | Report Abuse

Just checked. HL does offer collateral account but quite expensive.

0.38% < 100K
0.18% > 100K

Standard 2x cash and 1x share. For frequent trader like myself the extra .18% is a lot.

Posted by jc_87 > 2012-03-15 14:38 | Report Abuse

HL cash up front is cheap but collateral still considered expensive when compared to ECM and Jupiter. For those who play contra paying 0.38% or 0.42% ends up being very costly, I calculate my savings is easily more than 1K by using ECM. Right now I am with Jupiter but want to have access to mobile trading so going to sign up with ECM.

I opened iTrade@cimb lately and wanted to trade a stock worth RM11,400 yesterday but was shocked to find out from the trading platform that the net transaction costs is closed to RM94.62. No breakdown was given. I worked out myself that excluding the RM3.42 clearing fee and RM11.40 stamp duty, the brokerage fee would be RM79.80 or 0.7% and not 0.42% as above or communicated earlier. Can anyone explain why?

Posted by garytan88 > 2012-03-17 12:55 | Report Abuse

Hi David, I use iTrade too. I too started with the same fee. After sometime especially with decent volume, my dealer reduced to 0.3% automatically. Talk to your dealer. Cheers.

@Tan Kien Wei

Thanks for the advice, I would have gone for HL but their collateral rate is too high compared to ECM and Jupiter. I think they are not really specializing in collateral, in their own website also never show the rate or even mention that it is available.

It took me two hours plus just to find out the correct info. Call center lady told me 2x Cash 2x Share which is in fact the wrong rate. Luckily I receive email back from their helpdesk telling me the actual rate is 2x Cash and 1x Share. Finally I call back their call center to confirm and they said the one from email is correct rate. I don't know why they can't just post this info in their website so that we don't have to waste time to call and email them.

Anyways, I did online registration for ECM they gave me free trial account while waiting for me to submit the documents. Platform seems alright its the same as Jupiter one, HL apparently also using this same platform called Excel Force.

I tried the ECM platofrm for Google Chrome and also Safari on I-pad and it works for both. But it looks different to their IE platofrm.

Posted by mrK0K3N > 2012-03-22 14:14 | Report Abuse

Most of Malaysian broking firm--but not all--either use N2N or ExcelForce service provider. Both N2N and ExcelForce have their pros and cons. Speaking about ease of use, is's depends on what platform we're using. i.e. most--but not all--ExcelForce products only working on Internet Explorer, while N2N working on most--but not all--internet browser i.e. Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc. Speaking about portability, both--N2N and ExcelForce--are working from various of devices i.e. Java enabled phone, smartphone, iphone, ipad, android, etc.
