I've recently stumbled upon this wonderful community and I have to say that I am very impressed with the amount of knowledge that has been shared on this forum. As you may have noticed, this is my first post and therefore I feel like I should shed some background info in order to foster a better answer. I am currently a full-time commerce student studying at a university located in Toronto. I am fascinated with capital markets, and I wish to pursue a career in investment management upon graduation. My investment experience comes from managing a $20 000 student investment fund and interning at a wealth management firm. With that being said, here is the advice I seek. I currently have $10 000 in an RESP (Registered Education Savings Plan) and I wish to trade essentially two products: One, have an account with questrade and go long on equities and ETFâs, and two, have an account with(whatever you recommend) firm and trade 1 Emini contract at a time. Now, I already have a broker in mind (questrade) for going long with equities , but I am still searching for a suitable futures broker that would allow me too: ⢠Trade Emini contracts with a Canadian account ⢠Register with a RESP or TFSA so that I can minimize on taxes ⢠Have a good trading platform with real time data to execute trades properly. So with those three points above in mind, what broker would you recommend? I would also be interested in using a separate trading platform to do technical analysis, and one platform to execute trades on. What do you guys think? ~~~~SHORT VERSION OF QUESTION: What are some of the best brokers to trade Emini contracts for Canadian clients? I would rank these following qualities in order of importance: Commissions->Trading Platform-> Allow TFSA and RESP accounts. Thanks and I appreciate all your efforts in advanced! -MS
Oh Yah, I tried using the search future but could not find any relevent information regarding trading platform/RESP/TFSA. Thanks again!
