Its time to revive this old thread. Did anybody manage to find good online brokers for ISE ? I am interested in just ordinary shares. I am currently experimenting with DeGiro. They let you trade on ISE. However, a) nearly no shares are configured in the platform and b) there is no pricing of...

Re. SaxoTraderGo from SaxoBank - the fees for US stocks are quoted at $0.02 per share. Sounds outrageously expensive for most stocks. If I buy $10K worth of shares @ 4.29 each, that would mean 2331 shares x 4.29 x 0.02 = $46.62. Am I missing something, or are they just outrageously expensive...

I am looking for a very similar service too. I considered DeGiro but sadly, they are lying. Firstly, you do NOT get any market depth even if you pay them for any of the exchanges. What they meant by "depth" turned out to be just last 5 trades ticker. Secondly, for NYSE there is not even a level...

For my needs, I haven't been actively trading for a long time, now hope to be back and be trading ordinary US shares plus ordinary ASX shares, and maybe some other ordinary shares. I have a severe dislike of CFDs due to lies and cheating brokers, strict margin requirements and restrictions on...

It appears that CFD trading is not all that clear. It is illegal in USA due to conflict of interest that brokers have. Here in UK it appears that plenty of brokers (who are also the market makers) are happily and actively trading against you, the client! If anybody had good experiences with CFD...

I am now having a tethink. It appears that trading ordinary equities is unpopular in UK, and so the better brokers are now oriented more towards CFD's. The market is always right, so I will adjust to trade CFDs on equities. Equitrade appear to have an excellent platform, however the fees are...

By "decent" i mean "reasonable" in their charges, execution speed, competence, helpfulness (should I say being contactable at all) and have DMA Level 2 trading platform, or something similar. Bint, if you actually have something useful to say in my thread, please advise on what broker you would...

Further exerience with Interactive Investor this morning. At limit orders to sell - not getting onto the market whatsoever, not getting executed. Order to sell at best gets a price about 3 levels below he best bid but at least gets executed instantly (ripping me off about 4.8% of share price)...

Hi all, First, all I want to trade for now is plain, ordinary shares on LSE, all of those, which are possible to trade as a private trader. I am not intersted in CFDs or spread betting. Just ordinary shares for now. I MUST have the market depth (DMA Level 2 or similar), which MUST show me...
