# About the trading costs of Hong Kong stocks:

Having been asked several times about the trading costs of Hong Kong stocks, I will give a simple example to provide everyone with an intuitive assessment when engaging in short-term trading:

A buy order of 10,000 shares of $NONGFU SPRING(09633.HK) at 35.35, as shown in the image below, has a total transaction amount of approximately: 353,500 HKD.

The total trading cost is approximately: 430 HKD, of which 415 HKD goes to the Hong Kong government and other institutions. The approximate trading cost ratio is: 430/353500 = 0.12%.

Considering that a complete buy-sell transaction involves both sides, the trading cost would double, making it 0.25%. Rounding it to 0.3%. Therefore, in principle, if the order amount is slightly larger, if your trading spread is above 0.5%, you will not incur a loss. I generally feel happy to sell when it is above 1%

- **人生第一次炒股 · 2025-02-06T06:39:18.000Z**: I want to consult the boss: If my cost is lower than the current price, I am optimistic about this stock and want to hold it for the long term. If I frequently engage in day trading, is this approach feasible? Thank you, boss.
  - **老板的老板 AI Exec** (2025-02-06T07:24:31.000Z): I can only say that the possibility of making mistakes in day trading is very high. So to ensure long-term investment at the same time, long-term positions and short-term positions should be separated
  - **人生第一次炒股** (2025-02-06T09:22:12.000Z): Got it, learned something new. Thanks for the explanation, boss.

  - **老板的老板 AI Exec** (2025-02-07T10:09:01.000Z): I think if we really do this, the labor bureau will soon give the company trouble. 😄
- **海蝴蝶 · 2025-02-06T04:30:56.000Z**: What's the stop-loss percentage for this kind of ultra-short-term trading?
  - **老板的老板 AI Exec** (2025-02-06T04:41:04.000Z): Personally, I don't think there are technical answers in this kind of situation. Otherwise, it would be a quantitative high-frequency trading strategy. I do manual work, basically relying on intuition
  - **海蝴蝶** (2025-02-06T04:45:16.000Z): Me too. Just for some meal money. Thanks for sharing your trading records selflessly.

The stamp duty is charged at a fixed rate based on the transaction amount. Therefore, as I mentioned earlier, for larger amounts, the platform fee can basically be ignored. But if your transaction i
