    About currencies conversion
    General Questions
  1. No. You can buy stocks in all the markets offered by MONEX BOOM with any of the currencies in your account. For details, please visit "Markets Available in MONEX BOOM".

    The six currencies that you can deposit and/or keep in your MONEX BOOM account are HKD, USD, RMB, SGD, AUD, JPY, GBP and EUR.

    In addition, trades for Taiwan, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia and Korea stocks are settled in USD. For all other markets, settlement currencies are same as the trading currencies. For details, please visit "Settlement Currencies of Different Stock Markets".
  2. The Portfolio page shows your "Total Fund Available" in the currency you selected for viewing only. It does not perform any currency conversion in your account.

    Besides, the exchange rate(s) used to calculate your "Total Fund Available" is indicative only.

    If you want to give an instruction to convert any currency, please login to your MONEX BOOM account, then go to the "FX Instructions" under "Currencies Conversion" of the "Funds & Account" section.
  3. Auto Conversion
  4. No. There is no need to convert your funds into the settlement currency before placing an order. Any currency conversion will be done for you after your buy order is executed.
  5. For your cash account, if there is insufficient fund in the settlement currency to cover the executed trades, we will arrange currencies conversion to cover the deficit currencies on the next business day.

    When we perform the currencies conversion, MONEX BOOM will follow the "Currencies Conversion Sequence" of your MONEX BOOM account. MONEX BOOM will firstly sell the currencies at the top of the sequence, if exhausted, then move down to the next currency.

    To define the "Currencies Conversion Sequence", please login to your MONEX BOOM account, then go to the "Currencies Conversion Setting" under "Currencies Conversion" of the "Funds & Account" section.

    Besides, simply click "FX Instructions" on the "Currencies Conversion" page to give MONEX BOOM any specific instruction to convert a currency to another.
  6. Same as cash account, if your margin account does not have sufficient fund in the settlement currency to cover the executed trades, we will arrange currencies conversion to cover the deficit currencies on the next business day.

    When we perform the currencies conversion, MONEX BOOM will follow the "Currencies Conversion Sequence" of your MONEX BOOM account. MONEX BOOM will firstly sell the currencies at the top of the sequence, if exhausted, then move down to the next currency.

    To define the "Currencies Conversion Sequence", please login to your MONEX BOOM account, then go to the "Currencies Conversion Setting" under "Currencies Conversion" of the "Funds & Account" section.

    However, if you want to borrow HKD or USD so that you can keep the cash balance in other currencies, you can change your "Conversion Preference" to "NOT cover the negative cash balances(s) in HKD/USD". Therefore, MONEX BOOM will NOT convert currenc(ies) to cover your HKD or USD deficit in your Margin Account.

    Example 1: If you have positive cash balance in AUD but negative in HKD, MONEX BOOM will convert your "surplus" AUD to cover your shortage in HKD. However, if you would like to keep the "surplus" AUD for the coming buy orders on Australian stocks, you can change your "Conversion Preference" to "NOT cover the negative cash balances(s) in HKD/USD". Then, MONEX BOOM will not change your AUD into HKD, but will lend you margin loan in HKD.

    Example 2: If you only have positive cash balance in SGD, but the amount is not enough to cover the negative in JPY, MONEX BOOM will convert all your "surplus" balance (i.e. SGD) into JPY. Then, for the remaining balance of JPY in short, MONEX BOOM will follow the "Currencies Conversion Sequence" of your account and lend you either HKD or USD to cover the shortage in JPY.

    In addition to letting MONEX BOOM arranges currencies conversion for you, you can give MONEX BOOM any specific instruction to convert a currency to another. You can do it by simply clicking "FX Instructions" on the "Currencies Conversion" page of the "Funds & Account" section.
