Personally, I would not use any of those brokers as the commissions are relatively high especially if I'm only investing 1-2k a month. Would look at something like Tiger Brokers or Interactive Brokers for lower commisions.

That aside, I would personally DCA into a variety of ETFs. Invest into what you know and understand and see potential of growth in. If you don't believe in the story that the investment is selling, then it probably is not for you. Do you fundmental analysis before any Long term investments.

Personally, I would have a big proportion in Index Funds such as the S&P500/Dow Jones index. I would mix this with a slew of other ETFs of my choosing that i think have potential for growth. These ETFs will be my riskier assets. I would also consider hedging my portfolio with a Gold ETF as well as Long term treasury etf. At the end of the day it depends on your risk appetite!

Hope that helps!​​​
