Lets say I want to open a brokerage account and invest in US stocks.. Should I open a SG dollar denominated account or a US dollar denominated account?

If you want to trade in US markets, you will require a USD denominated brokerage account. If you use a SGD denominated one, likely the broker will convert to USD on your behalf at a rate that is not in your control. May be more expensive in this sense. Consider using TD Ameritrade or interactive brokers for trading on US listed instruments
