As an experienced trader who takes trading costs seriously, I always do my due diligence before choosing a broker, especially for indices like the US100. When I assessed Huatai International, what stood out was their transparent fee structure related to equity and stock trading offerings. While the broker’s primary published details focus on their Hong Kong and China stock services, I found relevant clues that help gauge total trading costs. For trading indices, any fees would typically involve a brokerage commission. According to Huatai International’s standard charges, the commission is 0.25% of the transaction amount per lot, with a minimum fee applied—though the minimum amount is defined in RMB for stock trading, so I would verify directly for specific index products like the US100. On top of this, there are transaction stamp duties, handling fees (at 0.00487%), certification management fees (0.002%), and transfer fees (again, 0.002%). Any applicable taxes, for instance on dividends, are also collected as mandated by local authorities. While these numbers sound comprehensive, it’s important for me to clarify whether all these apply directly to US100 index CFD trades—or if the index is traded differently in their leveraged FX and futures section. The minimum deposit is listed as zero, which lowers entry barriers, but I noticed that payment options are somewhat limited and wire transfers or cheques are required, which might carry extra costs. Also, withdrawals have time restrictions with possible processing delays during severe weather events or if instructions are missed after the daily cutoff. Based on my experience, Huatai International’s published costs appear transparent but may differ between equities and index products. Before committing real funds, I would always consult their support or read my product schedule carefully to confirm full cost details for indices. This cautious approach is necessary because, as with all brokers, the precise trading costs depend on the product and platform specifics, which are too important to assume or overlook.
