Trading principles
It refers to the maximum money an investor can use for buying securities at a given time. It is calculated as follows:
Purchasing power = Cash + Proceeds from unsettled sales
Where: Cash is in the regular sub-account.
Proceeds from unsettled sales are sale proceeds not yet settled in the account for T+2 days (after deducting advance payment fees).

The depository fee is a charge imposed by the Vietnam Securities Depository (VSD) on investors when they trade securities to ensure ownership rights of securities in the market through the securities company. Customers with securities in their accounts are subject to a depository fee of 0.3 VND per share/month. This fee accrues daily and is displayed in the ‘Debt’ section of the customer’s Assets. It is settled at the end of the month or the beginning of the next month.
You can place orders to buy or sell odd lot shares (quantities from 1 to 99) on the Trading stock of TCInvest.
- Trading hours: 9:15 AM – 2:30 PM.
- Manually input the quantity of odd lot you want to buy.
- Choose the order type LO (limit order) and enter the desired price.
- You can cancel or modify your order in the Stock Order Book.
- Odd lot orders will only match when there is a corresponding odd lot buy or sell order (not matched with board lot).
The conditional order will remain valid for the duration set by the customer.
During that time, if the order meets the conditions to activate and is pushed to the exchange, it will remain effective in the following trading sessions. However, if the conditional order is not activated and the trading session ends, the order will no longer be valid, and no further orders will be generated in subsequent sessions.
Customers can place additional conditional orders if desired.

- Ceiling price: The highest price level at which investors can place buy or sell orders for a stock during a trading day.
- Floor price: The lowest price level at which investors can place buy or sell orders for a stock during a trading day.
- Reference price:
For stocks listed on the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange (HSX) and Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX): The reference price is based on the closing price, which is the last price at which a trade was executed on the preceding trading day. It serves as the foundation for determining the ceiling and floor prices for the current trading day.
For stocks listed on the Upcom exchange: The reference price is calculated as the weighted average of even-lot trading prices executed through the continuous matching method on the nearest trading day that employed continuous matching.
The investment amount is determined by multiplying the number of shares by the stock price at the time of investment. Each stock trade conducted by a customer is subject to a transaction fee based on TCBS’s fee schedule for the respective period.
