Do FSM or DBS vicker cash upfront allows queueing of several orders of 100k plus without actual upfront cash? Can contra trade?
If DBS cash upfront is same fees as FSM and is under CDP, why would people still use FSM if you have under 100k?

Even under 100k, fsmone is cheaper at 0.08% compares with 0.12%. And it applies to sell orders too.
Also some may start with fsmone with the intention of hitting 100k eventually where the fixed 10 commission is unbeatable
based on 99k, the savings in commission is $39+ right? but how secure is FSM... ?
a but off topic, but if we put money in a bank, we are secured by SDIC $75k, if we invest in DBS vickers/ FSM (or deposit in their cash account) are our funds secured in any way?
Just one question before I reply, have you invested any money before?

if people with zero investing knowledge suddenly appear in MM/SSI wanting to open brokerage accounts and trade shares, maybe we haven't reached the bottom yet!

Hi all,
I understand that for all silver tie customer, the min commission is $10. So if i sign up, i will be automatically a silver tier customer ? Thanks.
No, need to have 100k AUA
is it if sign up and transfer 100k in Cash account, will automatically become Silver customer, then buy any amount of SG stock will be flat commission $10 ?
