Stock Paper Trading Rules

1. Stock paper trading involves four markets: the Hong Kong stock market, the US stock market, the China A-shares market, and the Singapore stock market. By tapping the 「Create」 button, you can open a virtual account for each market and will have an initial asset of 1 million HKD , 1 million USD, 1 million CNH, and 1 million SGD in each account, respectively.

2. The product types you can trade in paper trading are limited to stocks, warrants, CBBCs, and other products listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for the Hong Kong stock market, and to stocks for both the US stock market and the China A-shares market.

3. Trading hours: Hong Kong stock market: 9:30 AM-12: 00 PM, 1:00 PM-4:00 PM (China Standard Time); US stock market: 9:30 AM-4:00 PM (Eastern Time); China A-share market: 9:30 AM-11: 30 AM, 1:00 PM-3:00 PM (China Standard Time); Singapore stock market: 9:00AM-12:00PM,1:00PM-5:00PM(China Standard Time).

4. Paper trading supports dividends and bonus shares, but does not support IPO shares subscription, rights issue, or placement.

5. Paper trading adopts the rules of order matching. The highest bid (best bid) and the lowest ask (best ask) are the best prices for matching. A buy order at a price higher than the best bid or a sell order at a price lower than the best ask satisfies the matching conditions and will be automatically queued for execution.

6. The paper trading system is not necessarily consistent with the real stock market. In case of any inconsistency, data in the paper trading system shall prevail.

7. If you hold stocks of a listed company which is delisted for any reason, you may no longer trade such stocks in later trading days, and the system will return the virtual funds to your virtual account at the last closing price.
