cause I wanted to buy DBS shares
With share financing
But both Poems and OCBC are taking very long to open account
The way to hedge it to take a position with CFD
using my IG account, which was there all along
It really eases the anxiety,
when I am not sure when I can get my new accounts
and also fearful that the share price will go up
currently, DBS shares is below 20
it is a great price, as it has dividend yield more than 6%
and that is based on the old dividends
moving forwards, dividends may increase to 1.33
which will bring dividend yield to 7.3%
Later in the day, Singapore government will announce another stimulus package
Called Fortitude
Not sure how much will it cause DBS to rise
I am hoping to buy another 1000 DBS shares on CFD
as I hope to own 5k DBS shares coming out of the crisis.
Coincidentally, today is supposed to be the day we receive DBS dividends
Hopefully I am getting 2k if I am not wrong
Once I see it in my account, I might pump that money into IG again
and buy the other 1000 DBS CFD
Also did some stress testing on the CFD positions
The 1000 DBS shares that I buy,
if it falls to $18, it will incur a loss of $1400.
And good thing is it will not be margin called yet.
Maybe it is a good thing that I only have limited funds in IG account
It can be an auto stop loss
But to me, it may not be very likely
The price seems quite stable now
The SNP 500 is starting to breaking the resistance zone of 2975
So what does this have to do with the share financing account?
When the share financing account is set up, I will buy 500 shares each in Poems and OCBC
and every time I buy 500 shares, I will sell 500 shares in IG
So in a way, I am using the CFD positions as a hedge in case the price rise in future.
