after mo mag invest nang 5k, magkano na monthly ihuhulog sa kanila?
Athena, it is not required to do it monthly but the minimum that you can deposit is Php 1,000. If you deposit below P1,000, a service charge applies.
meron po b rules if gusto mo n bawiin shares mo if di kumikita & pede mo ba encash earnings if ayaw mo ibili pa ng stock? tnk u
No rules. You can buy or sell shares and you can withdraw your outstanding balance absolutely ANYTIME.
But you can only withdraw your investment once you sell your shares.
As an example, I sold my San Miguel (SMC) shares last time and withdrawn the money I earned from it :)
