Wide bid-offer spreads compared to actual market


Guest cheewt

Question

Hi, I am based in Asia and I was just looking at your Hong Kong and Singapore stocks' bid-offer. They seem much much wider that what is actually quoted onshore. 

 

Is there a reason to that?

 

I find the wide bid-offer makes it not worth investing in the said countries' stocks through IG

 

Thanks

Hi there,

 

Our CFD prices for Hong Kong and Singaporean stocks are taken directly from the main exchanges. As such, you shouldn't be seeing any differences if you have live prices activated. Would you be able to let us know where you were seeing the smaller spreads so that we can take a look into it for you?

    • Another gloomy session for stocks saw the Hang Seng drop by 3% as it played catch-up following Monday's holiday, and the Nikkei down by more than 1.7%. A hawkish speech by Fed governor Michelle Bowman yesterday and comments from others reminded investors that the Fed is committed to leaving rates unchanged, negating any positive sentiment lingering from the weekend funding deal for the US government. While tech stocks eked out some small gains yesterday, most indices remain under pressure. FX markets are on intervention watch following more comments from officials in Japan about the weakness of the yen. Today sees the monthly US job opening figures, as a warm-up to the ADP and non-farm payroll figures later in the week. A weaker open is expected for European and US markets.

    • I have recently researched cryptocurrency exchange tokens with good potential that would be a profitable investment for the upcoming bull market. This is what I found so far. 1. Binance's token BNB, BNB is the biggest exchange token and has done well over the years. However, its performance this year has not been great and it currently trades at over $200. 2. OKX's token, OKB, is trading at over $40 and has performed very well in 2023. It may be a good addition to our portfolio for the upcoming bull market. 3. Bitget's token, BGB. The BGB daily chart looks fascinating and it currently trades around $0.40. Based on the exchange's growth in 2023, BGB seems to be the most promising exchange token I have researched. I will continue to research other exchange tokens, but for now, I would like to know your thoughts on these tokens.
