Auction Trading to Capture Opportunities

Pre-opening session, which is 30 minutes before the commencement of the morning session of the continuous trading session. The closing auction session commences one minute after the continuous trading session and ends at random closing time between 16:08 and 16:10 on a normal trading day (12:08 and 12:10 on a half trading day) as determined by HKEX system.

During pre-opening session and closing auction session, you can place two types of orders: "At-auction Order" & "At-auction Limit Order". (Please note that "Order Watching Service" option is not applicable)
At-auction Order
At-Auction Order is a market order without a specified price with higher auction matching priority than At-auction Limit Order. During pre-opening session, new at-auction order can only be placed on stocks eligible for pre-opening session and during closing auction session, new at-auction order can only be placed on stocks eligible for closing auction. The executed price / volume will be determined on the final Indicative Equilibrium Price (IEP)* and Indicative Equilibrium Volume (IEV)#. Depending on market conditions, not all At-auction orders can be matched. If the order placed at either pre-opening session or closing auction session is unfilled at the end of that session, the order will be cancelled automatically . Please note that the executed price (i.e. final IEP) is not known at the time of order input and may not fall within or largely deviate from your expected price range, especially for orders executed in pre-opening session. The Bank reserves the right to sell the related securities to setoff the cash shortfall.
At-auction Limit OrderΔ
HKEX will only accept at-auction orders for stocks eligible for pre-opening session (POS) or closing auction session (CAS) only. For an order that cannot be executed due to ineligible for POS nor CAS, the order status will change from "Pending Dealing" to "Unexecuted". You can check the updated status of your order in the "Order Status". If you are using our Instant Order Confirmation Service, you will receive related SMS.
At-Auction Limit order is a limit order with a specified price. The executed price / volume will be determined on the final Indicative Equilibrium Price (IEP)* and Indicative Equilibrium Volume (IEV)#. After market close till end of pre-opening session on next trading day, new At-Auction limit order can be placed on stocks eligible for pre-opening session but the order price must be within HKEX permissible price limit. Please ensure at auction limit order price entered is within HKEX permissible price limit, or else the order cannot be executed in the market. For an order that cannot be executed due to outside HKEX permissible price limit, the order status will change from "Pending Dealing" to "Unexecuted". You can check the updated status of your order in the "Order Status". If you are using our Instant Order Confirmation Service, you will receive related SMS. At pre-opening session (including at-auction limit orders received after random matching starts), unfilled or partially-filled orders will continue to be processed at your specified price in the continuous trading session.
For stocks eligible for closing auction trading, if the corresponding order cannot be fully executed in the continuous trading session and the order price is within HKEX permissible price limit, the order will be carried forward to the closing auction session by HKEX automatically. During closing auction session, new at-auction limit order can be placed on stocks eligible for closing auction trading but the order price must be within HKEX permissible price limit. When auction matching is completed, unfilled order will be cancelled. For stocks not eligible for closing auction trading, if the corresponding order cannot be fully executed in the continuous trading session, unfilled orders will be cancelled after continuous trading session ends.
Upper/Lower Price (applicable to Pre-Opening Session and Closing Auction Session)
HKEX impose a price limit on At-Auction limit orders during pre-opening session. For stocks with previous closing price, during Order Input Period, the upper/lower price will be ±15% of previous closing price. During No Cancellation Period and Random Matching Period, the upper price for buy is the highest bid at 9:15 or the lowest ask at 9:15 (whichever is higher) while the lower price for buy is -15% of previous closing price. The lower price for sell is the lowest ask at 9:15 or the highest bid at 9:15 (whichever is lower) while the upper price for sell is +15% of previous closing price.
For stocks without previous closing price (e.g. IPO stocks or stocks resuming from trading suspension), during Order Input Period, there will be no upper/lower price limit (but the existing 9-times price limit will also applicable to POS). During No Cancellation Period and Random Matching Period, the upper price for buy is the highest bid at 9:15 or the lowest ask at 9:15 (whichever is higher) while there is no lower price limit. The lower price for sell is the lowest ask at 9:15 or the highest bid at 9:15 (whichever is lower) while there is no upper price limit.
Price limit is imposed during closing auction session on limit orders carried over from continuous trading session to closing auction session and newly input at-auction limit orders to prevent excessive price movement. During Reference Price Fixing Period, HKEX will determine the reference price for each closing auction eligible stock. The upper/lower price at Order Input Period will be ±5% of the reference price. During No Cancellation Period and Random Closing Period, the upper/lower price limit will be the highest bid and lowest ask price.
Notes:
*
Indicative Equilibrium Price (IEP) - Price where maximum number of shares can be traded if order matching occurs at that time. IEP will be calculated only if the highest bid price of the buy At-auction Limit Order is equal to or higher than the lowest ask price of the sell At-auction Limit Order. During the pre-opening session or closing auction session, the IEP and IEV# will be continuously re-calculated every time a new order is entered until the completion of order matching. The final IEP (executed price) is calculated by The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("HKEX").
#
Indicative Equilibrium Volume (IEV) - Quantity of shares that could be matched at the IEP. During the pre-opening session or closing auction session, the IEP and IEV will be continuously re-calculated every time a new order is entered until the completion of order matching.
Δ
During pre-opening session, HKEX system rejects the order price of at-auction limit which deviates 9 times or more from the previous closing price or the nominal price or final IEP (as the case may be), if available. In this case, the Bank will not process your order and your order will become unexecuted. Please check the status of your instruction by order status enquiry function. You can place another new at-auction limit order if you need to. The Bank reserves the right to amend the above operation from time to time without prior notice.

What is Stop Loss Order?

1. Stop Loss Order Feature & Handling Logic
a)
Stop Loss Order is a sale instruction to preset the selling price range, i.e. Stop Loss Price and Lowest Selling Price, for specific securities in your portfolio. Once the current nominal price of the securities hits or lower than your pre-defined Stop Loss Price, your sale order will be placed to market at the prevailing market price (i.e. sale order is triggered). The Bank will try its best to process your order but it may NOT be performed due to fluctuation in stock price, insufficient market liquidity, system failure and any event beyond the control of the Bank. The order may be fully executed, partially executed or unexecuted. The executed price may also be BETTER THAN, EQUAL TO OR WORSE THAN your specified Stop Loss Price but not lower than your Lowest Selling Price. Once the Stop Loss Order is triggered, regardless of the final execution result at the end of the trading day, the order will be lapsed and cancelled and will not be carried forward to next trading day.
b)
If the order is not executed even at the Lowest Selling Price, such Stop Loss Order will be treated as a Normal Limit Order at the Lowest Selling Price and will be placed to the market for queuing. Once the Stop Loss Order is triggered, regardless of the final execution result at the end of the trading day, the order will be lapsed and cancelled and will not be carried forward to next trading day.
c)
For multiple-day order, once your order is triggered regardless of the final execution result, the order will be lapsed and cancelled and will NOT be carried forward to next trading day.
d)
Our securities trading system will check the stock price of the Stop Loss Order continuously and transmit them to OTP-C trading system during continuous trading session in straight-through mode in ascending order input time. However, if the relevant stock has NO BID, such Stop Loss Order will be handled manually.
e)
The acceptance range for Stop Loss Price is defined within 11 spreads and 50 spreads (The Bank reserves the right to change the acceptance range for Stop Loss Price without notice) away from current Nominal Price but it must not be lower than HKD0.01. The Lowest Selling Price can be Lower Than or Equal To the Stop Loss Price but it cannot be lower than HKD0.01. Based on the above arrangement, we do not accept any Stop Loss Order if the current nominal price of such stock is lower than HKD0.02.
f)
To amend Stop Loss Order which is pending for execution, please cancel the order first. Upon the cancellation is duly handled, then place a new order again. Only the outstanding Stop Loss Order can be cancelled.
g)
Only board lot quantity will be accepted.
h)
The Stop Loss Order is not applicable to pre-opening session and closing auction session. But Final Indicative Equilibrium Price (IEP) will be treated as the Nominal Price when market open, therefore the Final IEP (if any), will be used to check against the Stop Loss Price. In case, the Final IEP falls at or below your Stop Loss Price, the Stop Loss Order will be placed to market after the morning trading session starts. Once the Stop Loss Order is triggered, regardless of the final execution result at the end of the trading day, the order will be lapsed and cancelled and will not be carried forward to next trading day.
2. Capture example for Stop Loss Order
Current specific securities Nominal Price : HKD2.27
Price Range between HKD0.50 - HKD10.00 : HKD0.01 per spread
Stop Loss Price : Within 11 spreads and 50 spreads away from current Nominal Price, but it must not be lower than HKD0.01
Lowest Selling Price : Lower than or equal to the Stop Loss Price but it cannot lower than HKD0.01
Stop Loss Price Range (HKD) Lowest Selling Price Input Range (HKD) Order Accept / Reject Remarks
Case 1 Between HKD2.17 and HKD1.78(11 spreads to 50 spreads away from current Nominal Price) Between HKD2.17 and HKD0.01 Accept If the Stop Loss Price is set to HKD2.17, the order will be sent to market for execution if the Nominal Price is fallen to HKD2.17 or lower.
Case 2 Higher than HKD2.17(less than 11 spreads away from current Nominal Price) Any price Reject The defined Stop Loss Price is less than 11 spreads away from Nominal Price.
Case 3 Lower than HKD1.78(more than 50 spreads away from current Nominal Price) Any price Reject The defined Stop Loss Price should not more than 50 spreads away from Nominal Price.
Case 4 Between HKD2.17 and HKD1.78(11 spreads to 50 spreads away from current Nominal Price) HKD 2.18 (higher than Stop Loss Price) Reject Lowest Selling Price must be equal to or lower than Stop Loss Price but it cannot be lower than HKD0.01. Based on the above arrangement, we do not accept any Stop Loss Order if the current nominal price of such stock is lower than HKD0.02.
Case 5 Between HKD2.17 and HKD1.78(11 spreads to 50 spreads away from current Nominal Price) Lower than HKD0.01 Reject Lowest Selling Price must be equal to or lower than Stop Loss Price but it cannot be lower than HKD0.01. Based on the above arrangement, we do not accept any Stop Loss Order if the current nominal price of such stock is lower than HKD0.02.

3. Order Triggering and Execution Logic
 
All-in-One Order
 
All-in-One Order allows you to place a purchase order and a sale order of same security in one go. Once the purchase order is FULLY executed before the market closes on the specified expiry date, ALL the shares/units bought will be processed automatically according to your preset selling instruction.

You can place your preset selling instruction and experience flexibility in securities trading without focusing on changes on securities price.
 
All-in-One Order involves 2 order instructions(1):
 
(1)
Limit Purchase Order
Purchase price cannot be lower than 50% of current ask price.
(2)
Limit Sale Order or
Stop Loss Order
Limit Sale Order
Selling price cannot be higher than 1 time of current bid price.
Stop Loss Order
Customers are required to preset the selling price range i.e. Stop Loss Price and Lowest Selling Price:
Stop loss price is defined within 11 spreads and 50 spreads away from current nominal price.
Lowest selling price can be lower than or equal to stop loss price but it cannot be lower than HK$0.01.
Note: Quantity and expiry date of the purchase order and sale order must be the same. Upon receipt of your instruction, a purchase order reference number will be given to you up-front.
 
Example on How to Process the All-in-One Order
 
Assume a customer would like to buy 3,000 shares of Stock A at HK$14 and sell at HK$14.50. The order will be expired on 25 February.

When the purchase order is FULLY executed before the market closes on the specified expiry date (i.e. successfully bought 3,000 shares of Stock A on or before 25 February), the system will process the selling instruction automatically and generate a related sale order (i.e. sell 3,000 shares of Stock A at HK$14.50).

For a multiple day order, regardless of the final execution result, the order will be lapsed and cancelled at the close of market on the expiry day or at the time your cancellation request is duly handled, whichever is the earlier. If the purchase order is FULLY executed before the market closes on the specified expiry date and the related sale order is a Stop Loss Order, once the Stop Loss Order is triggered and sent to the market, this order will be lapsed and cancelled after the market close and will NOT be carried forward to the next trading day.
 
Handling of All-in-One Order
 
Amendment is not provided. For All-in-One Order, regardless of whether the purchase instruction or the sale instruction is pending for execution, you cannot amend the order. You can cancel the order and place a new order once the cancellation is duly handled.
Orders are not applicable to pre-opening session and closing auction session. Orders will be processed in the continuous trading session.
Orders have to be processed automatically by the system. We do not accept All-in-One Order placement with exceptions which require manual handling, including but not limited to odd lots, prices below HK$0.01, quantities over 3,000 lots, estimated settlement amount that cannot cover the charges, and orders on securities that do not have a previous closing price etc.
 
Notes:
(1)
The Bank reserves the right to change the spreads without prior notice.
All-in-One Order involves 2 instructions, one purchase order and one sale order, both the purchase and sale orders are subject to the brokerage fee and the transaction charges charged by third parties such as Transaction Levy, Stamp Duty and Trading Fee, etc.
 
The Bank will try its best to process your order but it might NOT be performed due to fluctuation in stock price, insufficient market liquidity, system failure and any event beyond the control of the Bank. The order may be FULLY EXECUTED, PARTIALLY EXECUTED or UNEXECUTED. The executed price of Stop Loss Order may also be BETTER, EQUAL TO OR WORSE THAN your specified Stop Loss Price but not lower than your Lowest Selling Price.
 
Important Note:
Customers shall read in detail and understand the special features and handling procedures content before using All-in-One Order.
 
Share Margin
Overdraft
Facility
Trading Limit

Share Margin

The prices of securities fluctuate, sometimes dramatically. Margin trading in securities involves significant risk and losses may exceed the value of your collateral. Contingent orders may not necessarily limit losses as market conditions may make it impossible to execute contingent orders. Additional margin deposits may be required at short notice. Your collateral may be liquidated without your consent and you will remain liable for any resulting deficit in your account. You should therefore carefully consider whether margin trading in securities is suitable for you in light of your own financial position and investment objectives. It is as likely that losses will be incurred rather than profit made as a result of dealing in securities.

Hang Seng Share Margin Services provide you extra funds and help you capture potential investment opportunities.

 

Preferential Interest Rate1

Preferential interest rate is offered and interest will only be charged on the daily outstanding debit balance in the Share Margin Settlement Account, the interest rate per annum can be as low as Prime Rate – 1%.

 

Enhance Buying Power

The margin ratio is 40% - 60% of marginable stocks2 which provides you up to 60% extra funds to buy marginable stocks. No minimum monthly repayment amount is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Notes:

1.Prime Rate refers to the Hong Kong Dollar Prime Lending Rate as quoted by Hang Seng Bank Limited ("the Bank") from time to time. The Bank reserves the right to revise margin loan interest rates from time to time. All shares purchased through the margin trading account (whether purchased with margin lending facility or not) will be used as collateral.

4. The Bank will perform at least 4 real-time stock revaluations every day to calculate the Margin Loan-to-Value Ratio to determine whether customers require to cover the excess.

Formula for calculation of Margin Loan-to-Value Ratio: Margin Loan ÷ Total Market Value of your Marginable Stocks

If Margin Loan-to-Value Ratio rises to 70% or above, the Bank reserves the right to sell customer's securities without prior notice in order to restore the original margin ratio.

The Bank will calculate the Margin Loan-to-Value Ratio based on customer's available balance. It is recommended that customers should deposit cash into their settlement accounts when a reminding margin call is received.

Example:

If your margin loan is HKD50,000 and the market value of your marginable stocks is HKD100,000, the Margin Loan-to-Value Ratio is 50,000 ÷ 100,000, i.e. 50%.

Suppose the market value of your marginable stocks falls to HKD70,000, your Margin Loan-to-Value Ratio increases to 71.4% and the Bank has the right to sell your securities in order to restore the original Margin Loan-to-Value Ratio

Through the RQFII investment quota granted by Mainland authorities, a RQFII A-share ETF seeks to track the performance of an A-share index by channelling the renminbi raised outside mainland China to invest directly in a portfolio of A-shares.

RQFII A-share ETFs are traded on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong (SEHK) like stocks. Like other ETFs listed on the SEHK, RQFII A-share ETFs must be authorized by the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) before they can be offered to the investing public.

Before investing in any RQFII A-share ETF, you should read its offering document including the product key facts statement (Product KFS) carefully to understand its key features and risks.
