Inspired by some successful stories and my own early trading success, I decide to switch to a more day-trading friendly brokerage firm. My questions are: Which online brokerage firms provides better commissions and tools for day trading in Canada? Is it easy to borrow shares of NYSE-listed companies from them? Thanks.
yeah but seriosuly what other options are there other than IB the next cheapest is questrade i think whihc has 4.95 for 500 shares than 1 cent for every share up to max of 9.95... u can do options/forex/gold from there account but with IB u get cheaper prices and access to way more markets its like no brainer. only thing is if u need a registered account then ur only choice is at a bank or questrade since IB doesnt do registered accounts.
What about thinkorswim? I did some research, seems that they have a pretty good reputation and have the best Desktop-based Software according to Barrons.
