Kyobo Securities Revamps HTS and MTS for Easier Overseas Stock Trading

[Asia Economy Reporter Kum Boryeong] Kyobo Securities has completed the renovation of its Home Trading System (HTS) and Mobile Trading System (MTS) that allow buying and selling of overseas stocks.

Kyobo Securities Global Brokerage (GBK) division announced on the 14th that it will relaunch the overseas stock trading systems 'Kyobo PROVEST K GLOBAL' HTS and 'win.K' MTS.

Investors can now trade stocks listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in Japan, in addition to the existing US, China, and Hong Kong stock exchanges, through this renewal.

Also, when trading US stocks, it is possible to trade directly in Korean won without currency exchange procedures. Trading is available not only during the regular US market hours but also during Pre-Market and Post-Market hours.

Algorithmic order functions such as market orders and Market-On-Close (MOC) sell orders have also been added. For customer convenience, features such as simultaneous inquiry of investment amounts in foreign currency and Korean won, realized profit and loss inquiry by period, and chart analysis functions have been upgraded.

Choi Doohee, head of the GBK division, said, "With this renewal, we have improved the functions of the overseas stock trading system and enhanced the trading environment so that investors can invest optimally."
