    nice thread here..ako din into planning to trade/invest jan sa Aus, at the same time maintain my COL account, lalot ngaun na pinas maganda ang economy ng pinas, since online naman lahat trasaction dun I can buy/sell/fund/withdraw anytime I want..atleast kung uuwi ako pinas para mag bakasyon less hassle at forex loss na ng pera..withdraw lang sa COL ng pang budget :)
    aside sa COL, na-try mo din BPI trade? OK din?
    you can try philstocks too, read they have a good platform, a lot of local online trader are switching from COL to philstocks dahil sa slowness na din during trading hours.

    @TasBurrfoot - sa news and forecast about factors affecting the sharemarket like the AUD plunging up to US60 cents (may hit 50) til next year, prices of commodities (export) going down as well. However, some businesses may benefit from it though. But the overall sharemarket will be affected negatively.

    AUD plunging MAY entice foreign investors to come in the market as they can be able to buy more AUD for their foreign currencies - with market a bit down recently and a low AUD, this might lure foreign bargain hunters thereby supporting a bit the levels in the equities side.

    If you have a longer time horizon (10 years at least) and if you DCA at least every quarter, this shouldn't matter too much afterall no one can really time the market.

    But yeah, valid concern if you trade in and out... :)

    Good luck!! Balitaan mo ako if you can spot the next Blackmores... ;)

    Hello! Interested din ako pumasok sa stock market dito sa Australia.. nagsstocks na din ako sa Pinas pero I am following Bro. Bo's SAM stocks. Hindi ko pa talga alam pano nagmmove yung market pero I'm planning to invest sa blue chip companies like @atchino.

    Question, how much ang minimum to open an account? Ok ba ang ASX as online broker? Hindi ko alam kung magsstart. Help!

    @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.....


    thanks for the above info! been looking for this kind of thread. mejo malaki nga ang 30aud transaction fee. way bigger than sa pinas..matagal kana nag t trade in au? ok din kc mag diversify wd a diff market. kami dito sa uae minimum transaction fee sa DFM (dubai fin market) is at least 22usd indi pa kasama commission. very volatile pa mga stocks indi pde sa may sakit sa puso :) hows ur experience po trading in asx? as per the 4 brokers u mentioned above standard ba fee nila sa transactions and commissions? parang Pinas is telling is us, all in nalang kau dito sa PSE :)

    I hope mas ma update pa ang thread nato. plan to settle in au maybe a yr or 2yrs from now and similar here n uae i am interested to help spread financial literacy sa mga pinoy dyan. sana those who have something to share can join me soon in this advocacy.

    Mabuhay po kayo!

    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 ?

    do u have an idea po ano stocks sa AU ang masipag mgbgay ng dividends? :) parang globe/TEL/MER sa PSE :) salamat! ano po broker nio dyan? :)

    Hi @atchino and sa iba pa po na makapag share ng info. Question lang po, Are there any tax free saving schemes in Australia aside from Super? Just an example, In Canada we have TFSA (Tax Free Savings account - where we can buy mutual funds) which let us save up to a limit each year the interest/income is then paid tax free, can withdraw anytime.

    We also have RRSP (I think this is the counterpart of Super in oz).

    I can't see anything similar in the oz website, or maybe I just don't know where to look.

    Thank you po in advance!
