1. OTC funds are divided into open and closed types. For open-end funds, funds are generally confirmed by T+ 1 and displayed by T+2. After T+2 is displayed, investors can choose to sell at any time. For closed-end funds, you need to wait until the open day to purchase and redeem. Off-exchange closed-end funds are generally based on fixed open-end funds for xx months, which means that they will be opened regularly for xx months.
2. On-site funds. On-site funds can be bought and sold in the secondary market like stocks. Most of the funds on the floor implement the trading system of T+ 1, and only when they are bought on the same day can they be sold on the next trading day. There are also a few on-site funds that can trade T+0, such as bond ETFs, gold ETFs, currency ETFs and cross-border ETFs. In fact, on-site funds can also be open and closed, but because most transactions are not like off-site purchase and redemption, but fund share transfer between investors.
Investment funds are not stocks, so they don't need to be bought and sold frequently, and they don't need to specify short-term quotes all day. Many novice investors tend to pay too much attention to short-term market returns, but actually buying funds can't make you rich overnight. If you are willing to hold an excellent fund product for a long time, you have defeated more than 90% investors in the market. In this way, you can achieve the effect of exchanging time for space.
