Trading the ASX

[mattjread]

Hi all,

I hold a keen interest in continuing to trade the Australia markets, particularly the Lithium/Graphite minerals companies, some of whom I already hold stocks in.

Now I trade with TD Direct Investing but am looking for some advice. I am based in the UK, and TD are limited with regards to the ASX.

Im looking for the best online broker to buy stocks and shares really, also if anyone knows one that allows options too that would be great.

For example, TD only allows one day limits to be placed etc for buys/sells, not really ideal..

Ive tried to get a commsec account but being the UK has made this hard, does anyone have any help, advice or opinions on the best one to use?

Thanks

FP Markets one of the best for trading Aussie shares.

Commsec costs too high.

Never used bell direct but get good reviews.

Could also try Interactive Brokers in the UK, not sure what they offer in Aussie shares.

Thanks, I was told about Interactive Brokers. I opened an account with them, filled the forms out etc and it seems to have opened all ok, (I can log in and use their mobile trading platform) but it says my account is a margin account? Does this also carry the stipulation of having to deposit 10,000 USD?
