Hi guys, great thread here. Recently i just open Plus 500 trading account. Is it trustable platform? I realise their service charge is on the high side, any other platform that i can use to buy US ETF?

As John mentioned - I'm using TD Ameritrade which offers 500 free trades (not sure when they expire, I think 60 days from account opening) and a selection of commission free ETFs, others have a $9.99 dealing charge.

If commission and fee is your concern, you can consider IB (Interactive Brokers). They are discounted brokers and their rate is by far consider cheapest.

But their platform does not come with research perks like TDA. IB is one of the top rated broker, both service and execution wise. The only drawback is their chart. They provide screenshot of chart updated at your selected time frame instead of a live chart. You can subscribe for chart services if you need live chart, but think asset allocation method can live without live lower time frame chart.

I can wire the money into the account through bank in malaysia or by using credit card just like Plus 500 account?
