    Doesn't anyone know about such a broker? I am currently have the account from firstrade.com and it is enough for me to invest in US market, but unfortunately it does not offer stocks from Hongkong. I am from China, so I do know quite well that many china mainland stocks listed in Hongkong are undervalued, especially those heavy industry and manufacturing companies. Besides, local Hongkong brokers charges too high, so I am here to ask whether US has a good broker to trade Hongkong and US.

    Thank you all.

    Thank you, def. I have checked, and can I ask you a question: for a cash account of interactivebrokers (as it seems that i am not qualified for a margin account), which can not convert currency and can only trade in base currency only by its definition, how could I trade USA and Hongkong listed stocks simultaneously? Or at least can I trade USA stock today with USD as base currency and trade Hongkong stock with HKD as base currency tomorrow? Thank you very much!

    I guess you could move funds around but that probably wouldn't be cost effective.
