Why European Investors Interested In US ETFs Are Turning To US Brokers: https://www.lightspeed.com/active-t...erested-in-us-etfs-are-turning-to-us-brokers/
You just have to fill in a online form , most UK / Irish brokers have it on their website if day trading , watch the spreads, we get about 10 times the spread as our USA friends get. Then add on the commissions, tax, FX spread charge and it soon becomes a heck of a difficult proposition just to break even trading USA stocks. My 1.5min trade yesterday on AMD netted $275 profit or -£123 loss due to shite FX rate!
Thanks so much for your advise. i'm no way ready for day trading i wanted to enter with this company with etf's as my starter. The interactive i'm on is int the US. Do you know what the form is called and how do i go about finding it on there site??? and thanks again Captain Caveman
%% WE USED to have 10 x the bid ask/before they went to low or no commissions. Have to swing/position trade/invest it. IF AMD goes down 10% today; its still up >77% ytd...................................
