SingPost - incorrect input

I have promised myself in the past as a reminder to myself not to make unnecessary silly mistake when placing buy or sell order on stocks online.  It's happening again yesterday!

I have SingPost 11 lots under CPF  portfolio and l have sold it all away yesterday but l have entered in error on the quantity as 12 lots.  Not knowing what's next so l have requested for my Dealer for help; and was advised that there will be a buy-in this coming Monday for SingPost 1 lot to cover the overselling.

Such a silly mistake.  Not sure if there is any penalty to pay; l do hope not.  Besides the unknown penalty amount, l will incur the usual brokerage fees and cpf agent bank fees on the 1 lot oversold so this will be super costly to me.

  1. The charges are as follows

    CDP will buy-in against your short position on Due + 1 market day. There is a buying-in fee of S$30 and commission of 0.75% charged on the buy-in contract by CDP. Other normal fees (clearing fee and SGX Access fee) and Goods and Services Tax apply. Starting from 25 Sep 2008, there will be an additional penalty of S$1,000 or 5% of the value of the failed trade

  2. For penalty, ask yr broker to help to appeal for waiver as it is mistake and not naked short selling
