Cash Withdrawable -moomoo Help Center (2024)

1. What is cashwithdrawable?

Cash withdrawable refers to the cash you can withdraw from your securities account to your bank account, including but not limited to:

• Uninvested cash;

• Funds settled after selling stocks.

Your cash withdrawable amount may be impacted by various factors, as listed below:

• Asset settlement: Includes the process of buying and selling assets like stocks, options, and mutual funds, as well as distributing dividends, and more.

• Trading costs: Includes funds on hold, stock borrowing fees, margin, and more.

Please note that your cash withdrawable amount may not be updated in real time. It may take 1-3 business days for your account to update.

If you need to withdraw funds urgently and are unsure about the amount required to open a trade, we suggest you suspend trading for 2-3 business days before you intend to withdraw funds. This will help ensure that you can withdraw the most amount of funds available.

2）Fund redemptions

The cash withdrawable amount may be affected by a fund redemption request. Please refer to the article below for details:

Why can't my funds be used for withdrawal or currency exchange?

2.2 Funds on hold

Funds placed on hold are not available to withdraw until the hold is cleared from your account. Funds may be placed on hold for the following:

• Open order being processed

• Pending withdrawal requests

• Pending currency exchange requests

• Unsettled fees, interest charges or trading costs

• Frozen IPO subscription amounts

Once the hold is cleared, the cash withdrawable amount will be updated automatically.

2.3 Margin

Investors who have opened a margin trading account have a margin amount that is required to hold in the account at all times. The margin required may affect the cash withdrawable amount.

The margin requirement is calculated based on all your open positions of stocks, options and other financial securities in your account. The margin required will include unused cash and may reduce the cash withdrawable.

To increase the cash withdrawable amount, consider closing any open positions currently held in your margin account.
