More than 5 years back I was into stock trading in the Philippines; I never really returned into it after moving to Singapore...

Anyone have experience doing this here in Australia? One of these days, I will go back to the market.

    i use westpac online brokerage. everything's done online, including iphone app.

    no money required to open a brokerage acct but you need to open an investment savings acct with westpac para dun daan ang pera into or out of the brokerage acct. staff package ako so discounted ang fees. im not sure ano ang details for the general public.

    they say e*trade is good, but have not tried it.

    Sharing info.. bka makatulong.


    - Cheapest fee is NAbTrade $14.95 kaso parang bago pa lang yata trading platform nila at saka pag mag transfer ka money online may limit. Kailangan mo tumawag over the phone kung mag trnansfer ka over their limit.

    - Commsec mukhang maganda ang itsura pero medyo mahal ang fee per transaction (buy/sell)

    - Belldirect / non bank - $15 per trade so mura na sya ng singko sa NAbtrade. I think they have better trading platform kaso mukhang hindi user friendly yung webpage. BUT I think functionality wise ok naman.

    - etrade medyo mahal din parang commsec and fee. May etrade US at Hongkong. Pero hindi yata connected yung system nila... meaning hindi ka pwedeng mag trade ng stocks sa US at AUD or Singapore using the same etrade account.


    - Wala "yata" minimum na deposit.

    - Meron lang sila offer na additional services na may montly fees kung gusto mo ng mga reports or access sa mga special research nila like kung gusto mo na sila na mag analyzie ng TA/Pattern at kung ano man tawag sa pattern na yun pati yung support at resistance at iba ibang charts.


    - Pero yung mga basic informations about the stocks are all accessible sa standard account.
    Minsan may monthly recommendation din sila binibigay sa lahat.

    - Sa pinas, kita mo kung sino mga seller at buyer... dito ipapakita lang yung volume. Hindi sinasabi kung sino ang buyer at seller.


    - Sa pinas mukhang madaling mang hype at madalng manipulate ng malalaking traders.


    - Dito eh may notice sila narerecived kaagad pag biglang kakaibang movement yung stock for the day.

    @packerx so your tito is purely trading?
    I believe lesser risk if he will include in his portfolio a longterm regular investing scheme

    Pwede mo declare loss mo sa filing ng tax. Para pag nag gain ka in the coming years pwede mo deduct sa gains mo.

    Example:
    Loss of 10k in 2011 / file mo sa 2011 tax filing na nag loss ka sa stock ng 10k
    Gain 20k in 2012

    For 2012 tax filing declare mo lang na gains for tax purposes is 10k (20k gain-10k loss in previous year)

    Have you had actual trading experience here in Australia @atchino; i need to bounce ideas with someone who has done it...

    It has been a while since I touched this asset class; think pre-GFC! :)

    Good topic.

    Any recommended and reliable brokers in Oz that are similar to COLFINANCIAL (formerly Citiseconline) in the Philippines?


    Check out the following online trading platform:
    - nabtrade
    - commsec
    - belldirect
    - etrade


    Mas maganda yung platdorm nila compare sa COL.
    COL nga lang is upto date yung price.

    Yung default na account dito s aaus kadalasan late yung update ng 20mins.

    kung kailangan mo ng update at trader ka, mag bayad ka additional monthly fee to get live updates at access sa mga recommendations nila. May iba iba sila monthly charges depende sa service na gusto mo ma access.

    So far default is ok kung long term investor at hindi day trader dahil hidi ka rin maka pag dya trade kung may normal day job ka.

    Trading at Investing sa stocks ay makaka-iba. I'm looking into Investing for long term sa magagandang company.
    Share share tayu para may passive income in aussie

    Look for banks and telco for long term and dividend play:
    - CBA / NAB / ANZ / WBC - almost 5-8% ang dividend
    - Telstra dividend yield of 5.5%


    instead na sa savings account sa bank mo ilagay that currently earns 3-4%, mas mataas pa kung ibili mo ng stock sa SAME bank na nagbibigay ng dovodend

    Sample sa westpac nasa 3-4% interst ng savings account.
    Kung ibili mo ng WBC .. nasa 6.8% yat aang dividend.

    kaso hindi malkas loob ko na ilagay lahat ng savings sa stocks to earn dividend dahil pwedeng mali ng pasok at kung bumaba ang value eh ma offset or matalo pa yung nakuha mo sa dividend.

    Dividend ng mga bluechip usually twice a year nag bibigay at mdalas na ontime or on the same month / sa reporting season ng company.

    Unlike sa pinas na biglang nag rerelase na may dividend tpos hindi nama nsinasabi kung kailan.

    @atchino, binasa ko blog mo. Sad truth ang super high cost of living sa Sydney. At sa Rockdale ka lang pala nakatira! Sa Wolli Creek ako. Nakita ko post mo about sa Opal computation.

    Hindi po online broker ang ASX.

    ASX(australia) = PSE (pinas)


    List of online brokers (katulad ng COL / BPITrade)
    - nabtrade
    - commsec
    - belldirect
    - etrade


    Mamili ka nalang sa asa listaha nsa taas (+ kontng basa / research)


    di ako sure sa minimum / depende sa online broker. Pero I think maglagay ka ng atleast 500-1000

    Ang sigurado ako - WALANG maintnaining BALANCE
    - kasi meron ako ilan dyan pero ZERO balance hindi naman na close or may penalty


    If you buy a stock worth 1k tpos from $15 fee to buy and FROM $15 to sell
    FROM $30 na yun transaction fees.

    Asuming kumita ka 10% (100) when you sell your stock
    100-$30 transaction fees = meron kang $70

    HWag mo gagastusin $70 mo kasi hidi pa sayo lahat yan....
    Dedeclare mo pa yan as income sa tax filing at mababawasan kapa ulit depende sa tax bracket mo

    Example a30% ang tax mo less mo 30% yung $70 = 49 take home mo



    Salamat sa pag bisita sa blog at kahit papano nakatulong .

    Paminsan minsa paki click na lang yung mga sponsor na advertisements (promise hindi sila spam) hehehe.....

    So far.... mas maganda ang return ng PSE compare sa ASX in 2014 (personal expereince).

    Maganda lang sa ASX na mga stocks na nag bibigay ng dividend... hindi delayed or TBA unlike sa pinas palaging TBA minsan hindi na naaanounce hehehe...

    From feedback -- madalas down ang BPI Trade.

    Lately bumagal din ang perfromance ng COL.. kasi parang may agreement na maki sakay/gamit si BPI (di ako sure sa full details) sa COL.

    Stock code: WOW - Woolworths down by more than 10%

    Is it time to buy?

    Annual dividend yield of 4.53% / fully frank
    - with this dividend, still beats the best online saving account interest around 3.75%
    - keep in mind dividend is not written in stone / it does change

    What are your thoughts about woollies?
    - compare the foot traffic when you go to wollies and coles or other online shops?
    - is it deteriorating due to online shops ?

    Is it because of CHEAP CHEAP...

    Down another 4% today (as of writing...) - for those with iron balls, might be worth a punt.
