Recommended broker to trade Stocks? (for Canadians)
Hello everyone,
I was wondering if some one of you use or recommend a broker which allows my to trade stocks and takes Canadians. I would also be curious if they give commodities, FX, etc..
I've tried searching this forum, but have not come to a decisive answer as I've read that some brokers will probably try and make you lose since they won't really execute your trade, take your money.
My personal choice is to go offshore/ go with an internet brokerage. They are also called discount brokerage as inventory exchange commissions can be very insane. I have seen some brokers provide commissions of $29.99 or so that is rather high. With discount brokerage, you pay about $5 or so that is a lot more affordable.
