1. I opened a trading account with Tiger Brokers and deposited S$10,000 into the account. I converted the SGD into USD in the Windows app.
2. I used the account to buy 20 shares of Tesla (TSLA) and 20 shares of Baidu (BIDU) in the US market.
3. I find the app to be easy to use, and the user interface to be excellent. The trading charges are low. I am also able to get news on the market and on the stocks that I placed on a watch list.
4. The screen shot below shows the user interface. I made a small trading loss of US $47.02 during the session. However, I intend to hold these stocks for a few more sessions before I close it, hopefully at a profit.
5. You can practice with a "Demo account" on this app. You can use the demo account to buy the stocks that I invested in, and see if you can make a profit on these stocks. As this is a demo account, you are not trading with real money.
