    Want to invest in US stocks but I guess it would not matter, right?
    Commissions might make you think twice about what you're investing in.

    FFS, open an account in US and make sure they are FINRA member

    I'm using SoFi and it's been good. Here's my referral sign up, we both get 20 points that could be traded for a stock. https://sofi-hk.onelink.me/AgcG/b54f85fc

    TD Ameritrade and FirstTrade both charge nothing, so it seems.

    Hi there,
    Was looking for a good broker and saw this thread.

    Also HK citizen. Want to invest infrequently in US stocks. Hoping for a broker with little or no transaction charges per trade, with low or no account minimum, and low/no/reasonable account fees . Was debating IB for a while, but just checked today that IB Hong Kong got some bad reviews...So back to square one.

    Would you still recommend DBS/BoC/Saxo/HSBC/ SoFi in my situation?

    Sofi is not great but it's a good start, considering your requirement for no commission and no maintenance fees. You can try it out first and add other brokers later
