Knowledge-Based Stock Challenge Lesson

So have you joined the first knowledge-based stock challenge held in March 2010 earlier? If you missed it, no worry. It is organized twice every year, many chances for you to participate. 

Result has been released. I feel disappointed because I'm defeated by a UM student and 2 engineers. The student managed to grab away with RM8,888, which suppose to belong to me in the first place. According to the 26 year old student (the winner) interview, he has 3 years trading experience. He makes use of  RHB Analyzer and RHB ShareInsight. And he said he spent 3 to 4 hours daily to study the fundamental and price chart of the companies. He also mentioned that he would like to use the winning money to invest in RHBCAP.

Okay, the winner looks like a nerd. He deserved the prize.

From the look at it, I highly suspecting RHB Investment taught him to provide such a commercial speech. We all know RHB trying to utilize the winner to promote it's products. Damn, I don't think I can trust him anymore. But one thing for sure he deserves the win and prize, he did his homework. He spent 3 to 4 hours a day to do his homework, where I only spent 5 to 10 minutes to do some stock scanning and trading. I don't have a trading plan some more. How can I beat him? No way.

So, in order to win in KLSE, spend plenty of time to do homework seems like an honest feedback from the winner to us. This is the best route if we want to make money with dignity. Okay I get the picture now, will I be the winner of the next round contest? 

Ops, I should stop dreaming from now.

Promotion Offer From Online Stock Brokers

As for Premier88, investors with balance of RM30,000 and above in their account will be guaranteed five free trades every month. This is the best I ever heard. 5 free trades, folks! 


Well, since there are so many stock broker firms are available in Malaysia and they are getting more and more competitive, retail investors like us will be having more benefits and choices. Keep it up!

If you yet to know, ECM Libra Investment Bank has made a follow-up move like other broker firms by launching an online stock trading portal, in hope to reach more retail investors across the local market through the Internet.


Yes, indeed this is a good strategy, as it is a faster way to expand, and cheaper compared to setting up of branches in various locations to cover the market. Just like my favorite broker firm, Jupiter Securities, they spent money to build up their online portal and offer lower transaction fees rather than setting up branches around the country.

Jupiter Securities also offers low brokerage rate to trade Hong Kong and Singapore shares.

Up to last month, ECM Libra has about 10,000 active retail customers with RM15 billion traded volume last year. Of this total, 18 per cent of customers trade online, according to the response in the past six months after its soft launch.

The portal offers the lowest brokerage of 0.05 per cent or a minimum fee of RM8 per contract during the promotion period. Just the same rate as Jupiter Securities. After that it will be 0.08 per cent or RM12 per contract. The portal houses four products, namely cash upfront, collaterised, DayTrading88 and Premier88.

In the case of DayTrading88, investors will pay brokerage fee only when profits are made per stock traded during the day, he said.

Attended RHB Invest Market Chart 2010

I would like to sincerely apologize to you all, as I have been away from blogging for more than a week. I've my reasons to do so, so please forgive me okay.

On the past few days, I've attended 2 free stock talks, one of them was RHB Invest Market Chart 2010. The seminar managed to attract more than 100 people attend. As you might already expected, 85% are males, and majority of them are 'uncles' level. So, I didn't bring my camera as well. ;)

In short, I witnessed Lim Chee Seng, head of RHB Research Institute sharing his opinions on global and local market outlook, as well as individual sector, based on fundamental analysis. Without surprise, his opinions are more or less the same as mine, except minor sectors that I'm not totally agreed with his thinking. 

Since it was a half day seminar, there were 2 other sessions related to ETF fund and technical analysis. But I chose to skip it, as my friend who accompanied me, starting to fall asleep. 

This RHB seminar reminded me about RHB Stock Challenge, which I totally forgotten to manage my account. How are you doing so far?
