Minimum Trade Requirements

US Markets

  • Fractional trading supported for most US-listed stocks and ETFs.
  • Minimum trade value: USD 1
  • Securities not eligible for fractional trading: Minimum of 1 whole share

Singapore Markets (SGX)

Fractional trading not available but odd lot trading is supported. See details below.

Minimum Trade Quantity:

Asset Type Minimum Trade Quantity
Stocks & REITs 1 round lot (100 shares, e.g. 100, 200…) or odd lot
ETFs 1 share (whole shares only)

 

Bid Size and Forced Order Range:

Product Price range (S$) Minimum bid size (S$) Forced order range
Stocks, REITs Below 0.20 0.001 +/- 30 bids
  0.20 – 0.995 0.005  
  1.00 and above 0.01  
ETFs All 0.01 or 0.001 (as SGX-ST determines) +/- 10%

 

Odd Lot Trading

Odd lot trading is only available for Singapore-listed securities and is not supported for US or Hong Kong-listed assets. It allows you to trade smaller quantities than the standard 100-share lot. Charges and commissions are the same as standard lots. Odd lots are traded during the same market hours as standard lots.

To place an odd lot trade, select “Odd lot” as your order type in the app.

Note: Only limit orders are allowed for odd lots. Market orders are not supported, but you may consider investing in Bundles if you wish to place a market order.

Most SGX-listed securities support odd lots, except ETFs, which already trade in single-share units.

Since odd lots typically have lower liquidity, to improve execution chances:

  • When buying, set a limit price slightly above the market.
  • When selling, set a limit price slightly below the market.

Key Points:

  • Minimum quantity: 1 share
  • Maximum quantity: 99 shares
