First, the specific way to buy stocks
Mode 1: Opening Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect. However, this has a threshold of 500,000, and it is impossible to subscribe for new shares. It can only buy and sell listed stocks, limited to 266 constituent stocks.
Method 2: Open a Hong Kong brokerage account. Traditional Hong Kong brokers need to bring valid proof materials and personally witness the opening of accounts at the brokerage counter in Hong Kong. The process is complicated, the transaction commission is generally in the thousands, and the transaction cost is high. Compared with the Internet trading experience that mainland A-share users are accustomed to, the products of traditional Hong Kong brokers will have a slightly worse user experience.
Method 3: Open an account with an Internet broker. At present, the more mainstream way to open an account. Take Huasheng Securities as an example. Its self-developed trading platform for Hong Kong stocks and US stocks supports three-minute online account opening, and the commission for trading Hong Kong stocks is as low as three ten thousandths. An account can easily invest in Hong Kong stocks, US stocks, ETFs, turbines, bull and bear certificates and other investment targets. In terms of product experience, it is more suitable for the habits of mainland investors and easier to operate.
Second, the stock purchase instructions
At present, there are many Internet brokers on the market, and their qualifications are uneven. Be sure to choose a compliant platform. You can go to official website of the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission to check the licensing status of the platform. Huasheng holds the license number of Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission 1/2/4/9, and the trading of Hong Kong stocks is guaranteed by ICC Fund, a Hong Kong investor compensation company, so investors' assets are safe.
If you want to buy and sell Hong Kong stocks, you must first understand the trading rules of Hong Kong stocks. For example, buying and selling Hong Kong stocks can do T+0 operation, that is, buying on the same day and selling on the same day, with no price limit.
Hong Kong stocks are subject to the T+2 settlement system, that is, they can be withdrawn on the second working day after being sold on the trading day, which is different from that in China. The continuous trading hours of Hong Kong stocks are from 9:30 am to 9: 30 pm 12:00 pm 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm. When buying and selling, we will continue to match in strict accordance with the order of price and time. The sooner we submit it, the faster the sale will be.
Third, suggestions for attention.
Whether buying and selling stocks in China or Hong Kong, they are faced with great risks. If investors do not have professional stock knowledge, they should be cautious in stock trading, and it is very likely that a small white stock will lose money.
