Stock Paper Trading Rules

1. Paper trading supports three markets: the Hong Kong stock market, the US stock market and the Australia stock market. By tapping the "Get Now" button, you can open a virtual account for each market and will have initial assets of 1 million HKD, 1 million USD and 1 million AUD in each account, respectively.

2. The product types you can paper trade are limited to stocks, warrants, CBBCs, and other products listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for the Hong Kong stock market, and to stocks for the US stock market,and the Australia stock market.

3. Trading hours: Hong Kong stock market: 9:30 AM-12:00 PM, 1:00 PM-4:00 PM (China Standard Time); US stock market: 9:30 AM-4:00 PM (Eastern Time); Australia stock market: 10:00 AM-4:00 PM (Sydney Time).

4. Paper trading supports dividends and bonus shares, but is not available for IPO shares subscription, rights issue, or placement.

5. Paper trading adopts the rules of order matching. The highest bid (best bid) and the lowest ask (best ask) are the best prices for matching. A buy order at a price higher than the best bid or a sell order at a price lower than the best ask satisfies the matching conditions and will be automatically queued for execution.

6. The paper trading system may not necessarily be consistent with the real stock market. In case of any inconsistency, data in the paper trading system shall prevail.
