South Africa's Top Stockbroker (2014)

Fair enough - and perhaps not a bad idea as per above.


Well the second you set your own prices you need real time data....else you're at a wicked disadvantage.

Personally I kinda like the own price thing. e.g. I'll look at something and decide "I'll buy if it drops another 3%...set up a buy order there...make it valid for X days". If the order doesn't execute then no fees....whatever...I'll look at it again in 2 weeks.

Question though...Stop losses? My platform doesn't provide those and I'm kinda miffed about that part.

Yea I guess this is definilty not the right platform for your scenario! I guess it is purely for long term low cost investments. No stop losses which again points to it being long term investments. GT247 do have trading platforms so i guess they are going for another market!

Thanks hamster, I actualy managed to find a Satrix transfer form, it requires very little details actually! If you are interested just search Satrix form 6. Other than your personal details all it needs is:

CSDP TRANSFER DETAILS

Awesome. I suppose you are going to need to have an account with the other broker already. Do give us an update if you do transfer your stuff.

Will do, Im definilty going to do it. I have just emailed easy equities to see if they can accept transfers but i don't see why not. Then I'll probably move my ETFSA a first as it's the smallest stock holding!
