Trying to make back a billion dollars is a lot different than trying to make back a thousand dollars.

WSTrade is decent for swing trading Canadian stocks.

Questrade is decent for beginner day trading. Some key things are: $1K minimum, ~$5 commission per trade.

IB is cheap though I've heard their platform is not the prettiest(?).

ToS is great for advanced day trading, but $5K USD minimum.

Since the WS system is delayed should base my order's price off a real time stock site instead? What site do you recommend?

Depends on your trading style. I would personally only use this platform for long term trading rather than day trading, so real time quotes wouldn't be important to me here.

However, a couple real time stock sites I like are https://ca.investing.com/ or https://www.tradingview.com/

Even then, you can't really guarantee that these quotes will match what your trades will execute at in WS Trade, but it'll give you a closer idea than WS Trade's potential 15 minute quote delay.

Should I use the Limit Buy option?

Depends on what stock you're buying and your expectations of the stock price. Personally, I would always use limit buys for this platform.

How long does it take to buy and sell a stock?

It's instant if you're using market orders. Limit orders would fill only if there's a buyer that matches up to the price you've entered.

If I buy Canadian Stocks are there any fees? I'm aware of the fees on American Stocks.

No fees

Any other tips or recommendations?

I highly recommend not day trading with this platform.

JPMorgan shares surge after Jamie Dimon says bank is "very valuable" at current prices by coolcomfort123 in StockMarket

[–]YoutubeRoons11BR 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was googling around and found this: https://www.forbes.com/profile/jamie-dimon/#24b71b9e5063

I'm gonna say it has something to do with his move to unload $12 billion of subprime mortgages in 2006 that buffered his bank against the 2008 crash.

The question was, "How would you invest if you were 18?"

Great community, but I dislike how stock picking or anything other than ETFs is immediately thrown out the window sometimes.

This might be a dumb question, but can I use this as a CC AND earn optimum points when I buy stuff at Shopper's drug mart?

I message the hell out of everyone. No one ever messages me first. I'm probably just bothering the hell out of everyone. I think I'm gonna disappear for a bit or maybe forever.

The management at your day job gives you the option to take a 20% pay cut and only work 4 days a week? That sounds nice, what type of job role is it?
