Hi,

Thanks for clarifying it. Now it's clear why I have to use 2 accounts.

Cheers

> I'm not sure whether you understand the actual restriction in KMM.  An

> money.  You can transfer funds from your checking account to the specified
> brokerage account and then use it to buy stock, but you can't transfer the
> money directly to the investment account.  If you want to buy stock using money
> in your checking account, you can do so, but not by transferring the money -
> just specify the checking account in the stock purchase transaction, which has
> to be entered in the investment account.
