I saw a post mentioning MT4, I've looked into MT4 to program EAs and to be honest, MT4 is a good piece of software, however the brokers behind it are kind of shady (electronic dealer for instance). the backtesting abilities of the program are lacking of a lot of features too... In Singapore: Philip ...

Hi tradewu, I may be able to help. I've got a couple of friends who started their trading business in the past year and I can put you in touch with the company they use. PM me if you're keen. Ps: I started my company in Singapore with the help of a PR friend and it was difficult for me to get the EP...

Thanks for your feedback
I thought I'd need some kind of licence for that!

hello, I have been googling for quite some time now as I am looking for a Asia based premium sms operator (sms billing) that would be reliable. None of the operators I found looked very "serious". Has anybody used this kind of service before ? If so could you please recommend some names? thanks! ps:...

you may want to take a look at Virtuemart (an add on to joomla)
easy, flexible and free.

you may need a nice template though as the "out of the box" one is rather ugly!

hello

I was wondering if having a few persons in the street distributing flyers actually required any sort of authorization.

does anyone know? if so, where to find some info on the process please?

thanks!

hello I would suggest you buy a website template that looks pro and maybe use a CMS system like Joomla. the cost should be around USD $100 but it should look "pro". It would also give you some control over your info and how you want to display it. then you will need to host the website and buy the d...

hello! I'd have a few questions on concierge services (I am quite curious about the business model) I read an article on someone who started a concierge service from Singapore. basically: you subscribe to his service and you get discounts on golf courses, free green fees, discount on the pro shop et...

just my 2 cents:
check out on Spring's website if you cant get a grant or a tax relief for your project...

hello, I didn't see any info on Spring or any govt website with regards to that: Is it required to have any sort of authorization to conduct market surveys in the streets of Singapore ? Same for "Street Marketing" (flyers / magazine distribution for instance) what about malls? (I doubt "street marke...

thanks to both of you.
got the entry and re entry pass (paper docs) and will collect my card next week... quite happy this is done!

hello, I suspect a few PRs are readign the forum... I'd have a simple question: After receiving the in-principle approval letter you need to meet up with an ICA officer (e-appoitnment booking) and hand over to him all the info to complete/finalize your application (medical report + photo + money + p...

hello! sorry if I am posting in the wrong section but I don't really know where this question would fit best... (and I think the most knowledgeable persons for this matter would be found here!) I have a friend who was working Singapore and then posted to HK from may 08 until 1st february this year (...

Use Interactive Brokers (IB) if you want to DayTrade or Scalp. Otherwise you can even use something like Options Express (OX) or Saxobank's platform. The main difference is in the commissions. IB charges only US 1.00 per 100 shares trade, one way. Which means it's only 2 buck per round trip per 100...

Apart from the fact it is questionable to pay for such a service, I believe this intent is a waste of money for a least 4 reasons. First, the quality of the database: a lot of people now have a spare email address that they use when they register to websites that are likely to "recycle" the data and...
