Questrade vs. robinhood

It helps me in managing my Canadian portfolio which includes stock-specific investments and ETFs as well. They charge no commission or very little commission on some specific trade.

robinhood has been great for me as a first time investor using "play money" outside of my main 401K and retirement. It has options for purchasing partial shares, which means you don't have to purchase a full, even share in order to invest. I love to option to buy and sell crypto so easily. Crypto prices move quickly. I can set alerts when I want to get in and for when I want to get out. The availability of index funds also balance it well. I like reading the articles and morningstar ratings that provide direction on market sentiment, fair value and quick earnings results.

I have used WealthSimple before, and I can say that Questrade is just a bit more intuitive for me. It's catered for beginners, but also has additional features for those who are a bit more advanced. Questrade is a flexible platform that allows you to create and track various types of portfolios, create and track various types of strategies, etc. By far the superior choice in my opinion.

• In my experience, Questrade has delayed me for months! I feel it's a waste of time
• I don't know how they deserve such high ratings, maybe they buy marketing and reviewers. In my opinion, don't buy into their sales pitch!!!
