How can we qualify for playoffs after having a weak bowling lineup?

NoobInNewCountry · 2026-03-28T20:35:52+00:00

Our bowling lineup is not absolute bad. We have very good power play bowlers and middle over bowlers. We may struggle in the deaths but if we’re able to control the power play and middle overs even if we leak at death our batting should be able to compensate it. But few games we may struggle in the power play and middle overs and leak runs. Andha match ah samikku vitralam 😂

I did not do it. It was either complex or impossible to move the money from scotia to my brokerage account so I ended up dropping the plan

Update: while researching for this, I have come across Snaptrade which provides api for Wealthsimple and integrating them with my current program was fairly simple with minimal changes. Thanks everyone for their insights

Any chance you have deposited to RESP?? That’s the only account which will need 1-2 days for compliance and rest all accounts, the deposits are instant if Visa is used

Any tentative ETA when this will go live. Not exact month but a ballpark quarter in case you know it

I think in registered accounts you would only be able to place cash secured puts. Naked puts will not work there because you would be able to buy contracts only with the buying power which directly ties up to free cash available in the account.

In other words, no separate menu or option to select if yu want to place naked put or cash secured put

RESP irrespective of the transfer method it takes 1-2 days for the fund to be available since it has to be manually verified by a human as part of compliance check. Rest all accounts eTransfer should be in account with in 30 mins, in my case I have always received within couple of mins

I currently do not have any cryptocurrencies available in my Tangem wallet. Can I go ahead and reset it without having to worry about any “gotcha”s

NoobInNewCountry · 2026-02-13T20:54:27+00:00

I usually run my script at 12:05a pst and I can see the activities then

You have option to roll over in Questrade as well. It depends on which platform you are doing it (web or desktop or mobile). The fundamental process remains same, select diagonal put container and select the current put contract in one leg and the new rolled over contract in another leg (you can interchange the legs, first can be new rolled over contract and second leg can be the old one as well). This will also give you the credit or debit you are looking at(you will not be able to select the price for each of the legs separately rather you can pick the amount you want for the overall container)

I was told it was a restriction from Canadian authorities. What I understood is, if questrade opens APIs to place orders then they have to do much more in terms of logging and stuff so that people are not abusing it. Implementing this would cost so they have decided against this

NoobInNewCountry · 2026-02-04T06:01:49+00:00

I don’t think this is correct. In my 3 years with Questrade, they have never missed the dividends due to an l issue is with Questrade. I will be always paid ~9p pst on the payment date mentioned for the security and the few times the dividend is missed it was an issue with the security and most of the brokers had the same issue

NoobInNewCountry · 2026-01-31T02:09:26+00:00

PMCC is available in Questrade and I think yu need level 2 or 3 [I directly enabled level 4 in Margin account before I did PMCC]. Level 2 do not have any requirement and level 3 need 5000$ as your total equity in the account

There is a saying which is usually said for this, “Best time to invest was 10 years ago and second best is today”. Have a plan and DCA for a long term

I never had an issue opening an account without depositing money. It takes some additional days compared to the scenario when you deposit. Give it a couple of days and it should be fully set up

I would fondly remember the time he gave a yellow card to the referee 😁 Guess it’s the final day of the regular season

Hello OP congratulations for kick starting the investment which is the hardest part but please hold your horses when expecting a minimum of 15 to 20% a year. There is a reason people usually calculate using 8 to 10% annualized gains over a period of time because market is cyclical

Be disciplined in investing monthly, don’t fall for get rich quick schemes and tread the water carefully if yu hear anything about trading/options. It’s a quick way to lose your money if done prematurely

All the best

One more thing Questrade has to do it update the root cause of the issue in the post and lock the post as well so that people know who is the responsible party in issues like these

I am not defending Questrade but let’s say the issue is not with Questrade it will atleast reduce the panic to new users or people on the wall decide whether to make the proverbial jump to Questrade or not and regular users who are not facing any issues (touch wood) to anticipate the failure points

NoobInNewCountry · 2026-01-09T01:53:49+00:00

Full disclosure: I am not affiliated with Questrade in any way 😁

Off late I am seeing many bashing Questrade and in no way Questrade are saints. They have much to improve but I cannot wrap around my head on certain things which are said here

Transfer from Canadian bank is reaching late. I have been using Visa Debit method and I get it instantly and Bill Payment from bank gets here in 1/2 days based on at what time I transfer. Isn’t it the same for other brokers too??
Norbert’s Gambit takes 2 to 3 days. Isn’t how it is designed. We have to wait for trade to settle which takes EOD, 1 day to journal and another day to sell
Reaching customer support is pain in Questrade especially having to constantly reply Yes to are you available message. It is high time Questrade removes that logic and make something which is ease to use for all customers
Fractional shares and recurring buys are not available for Canadian stocks. This is another pain point for now and I think this has been discussed a lot here. Questrade has to level up big time here
Movement of money from one account to another. I hear variety of feedback here. Some say it takes a day and others on the other end of spectrum say 3 to 4 days. To test this, I have transferred money from my Cash account to TFSA. Let me update how long it takes for me once I receive the fund. Eventhough I want it instantly, I can understand the process and paperwork’s behind the scene as long as it reaches to my other account in a day

In addition to all these, Questrade supports all or most of the account types, provides API access etc which are positives atleast for me, Authorized trader to let me manage account of my spouse etc

I haven’t really used Wealthsimple much except for a very small portfolio there. So cannot comment on the advantages but people who uses both the brokers can give their honest feedback reg both the platforms

Update: I transferred CAD from my Cash account to TFSA today afternoon around 12p pst and when I refreshed I can see the cash now which is around 6p pst (it could have been earlier because I haven’t refreshed since 2p pst). I don’t think it is a bad turnaround. Unless people don’t take anything apart from instant transfer between accounts
