What is the best way to fund my online broker account (Firstrade) for USD trades?
Do I fund my broker account by transferring SGD from local banks to the online broker and doing the currency conversion via the broker?
Is there a fee for the intl bank transfer? Does anybody know the currency conversion fee for Firstrade (can't seem to find this info)?

As they do not seem to have multicurrency accounts but only USD accounts,
the best way seems to be via TransferWise. But check before, what Your Singapore bank charges for outgoing wires to TransferWise's U.S. domiciled business account.
