Where is the best place to buy Canadian stocks besides Saxo? Based on my research it seems like only Saxo, OCBC and Vickers only offer live trading of Canadian stocks. Have I missed out any?

But the bad thing about Saxo is that it's not cheap and in fact, rather expensive.

Interactive Brokers offers access to Canadian markets as well. They have rather low commissions at 0.008 CAD per share with a minimum trade commission of 1 CAD, capped at 0.5% at trade value. However, if you do not hold 100k USD in assets with them, they will charge a monthly minimum commission of 10 USD.

Some of the biggest Canadian companies have dual listings on US markets, so buying the US-listed option may be the more cost efficient method, especially with 0 commission brokers such as TD Ameritrade.

Just applied for a DBS Vickers account to buy some blue chips, seems like they offer zero brokerage fees for first 5 trades for new users. Does it apply for cash upfront account too, or just cash account?

What broker do you guys use for Options Trading? Many ppl seems to be using ThinkOrSwim, what about others like IB or Saxo etc? Which one offers lower or better commission rates?

The Covid-19 outbreak has been called a pandemic by the WHO. Seems like it could be an opportunity to buy and invest in some stocks with proper research. Your thoughts?

Can I buy stocks on FSMOne too? Seems like a lot of people choose to RSP into ETFs via FSMOne rather than buy stocks?

I recently signed up for Saxo account but based on my details, they limited me to buying stocks on the platform, while I am more interested in ETF. What should I do to be able to buy ETF?
