What platforms are you guys using to trade shares on? What are the pros and cons? What is the most cost effective platform that provides you with historical data, key ratios and forecasts?
Currently EasyEquities seems to be the cheapest at around 0.62% of your trade. The only downside being that you can only trade at market price which seems alright if you are a long term investor. No company data
EasyEquities costs - monthly fee R0
Compared to the FNB share investor the costs are almost halved - monthly fee R59 - minimal company data
Both of these do not provide any financials, key ratios or forecast data for research purposes.
I believe Standard bank OST provides this data but the monthly fee is R90
Any thoughts?
