What is a real-time quote?
According to HKEx, stock quotes used from market opening to 15 minutes after market close of each trading session will be counted as real-time quotes usage. That is, during normal trading day, stock quotes for Exchange-Traded Funds traded under the Pilot Programme between 09:30 and 16:15, and stock quotes for other products traded from 9:30 to 12:45 and from 14:30 to 16:15, will be counted as real-time quotes. During half trading day, all stock quotes from 9:30 to 12:45 will be counted as real-time quotes. Real-time quotes include stock quote enquiries made via the following channels: 1. Simple Quotes, Detailed Quotes, Watch List and the stock quote hyperlink which redirects to the Detailed Quotes Page under Securities Express (e-Finet). 2. Stock Quote – Real-time Quote and Watch List – Real-time Quote under Securities Express (ETNet). 3. Real-time Quote function in Hang Seng Personal e-Banking (including that on the securities trading page).
