Need Help - Your ASX Trade Platform?

Inspired by recent post - Buying shares what do you guys think?
Just wanna check what's your trade platform.

I'm using NAB Trade, slightly cheaper than Commsec.
I know their comissions are tiered.
But for me, NAB Trade is $14.95 v $19.95 from Commsec.

Dont need insights/analyasis.
Happy to limit in ASX.
Shares & ETFs are must.
Online trading.

I understand Selfwealth has been mentioned in other posts, but I'm a bit dreadful on their slow deposit process time & customer service, based on comments in Product Review. I mean, we are talking about putting real money here.

Also, there is a list in Finder, if anyone is interested.

Anyway, what trade platform do you use?

    I use WestPac. It's crap and expensive. Moved over there last year (don't ask). Will probably move to NAB soon.

    Have used several other platforms over the past 20 years such as Netwealth and Suncorp and a few others and WBC is the worst. It won't even let you put in a dollar specific trade prior to market open.

    • Agree, Westpac are a big business bank for large firms taking traditional paper trails. Nothing for bargainers. But ANZ really?

        I didn't mention ANZ

  • Selfwealth has slow support for a few months after the GME mania, and peaking leaving Stake. Since their sign-ups and support requirements tripled overnight, they couldn't hire fast enough. They're more on top of it now.

    They save me lots of money and have good reliability (uptime).

    Selfwealth deposit for me is next business day with BPAY, and they have live chat for customer service. Happy with them.

    I'm sure there are plenty of comments on productreview against every broker on this list, not sure you can draw many conclusions from that.

    CMC Market for low cost trades and commision-free for international trades. Deposit time can take long

    If you are going to be constant trading then Selfwealth.

    If you want to accumulate less than $5k at a time then maybe look at OpenTrader that is $5 for trades less than $5k.

    Bell Direct.

  • Use to love E-Trade back in the day, is that still around or just ANZ trading?

    • It was so good and sad ANZ stuffed it.

    Selfwealth for AU, Stake for US and Commsec for one or two other international shares.

    Selfwealth gets the most use from, and I recommend it, although it's announcement and push notifications are not at the same level as Commsec's.

  • BellDirect for AU shares, used them for past 10 years.

    Used CommSec for international shares, but they charge annual fee if there is no at least one trade per year. I rarely trade international, so moved all US shares from CommSec to Stake, they pretty much just sit there.

    Wife got SelfWealth, easier if you want to trade both AU and US shares from one place.
