How do I trade Hong Kong stocks if my order size is lower than the required minimum?

Overview:

Traders should familiarize themselves with the unit of trade convention for BRK B along with IB’s policies with respect to odd lot orders. Due to the relatively low trading volume in BRK B, NYSE Arca (the primary listing exchange for this security) has designated it as a 10-share unit issue. A round lot in this security is therefore set at 10 shares as opposed to the standard round lot unit of 100 shares. If your opening buy or sell order is for an amount less than 10 shares, it is considered an odd-lot. As a matter of policy, odd-lot orders are prohibited from being routed to NYSE Arca.
