I think we put too much on rates on choosing platform if we want to be investors and not traders. I hope not we are not DAY TRADING on the S&P 500 index!! Certainly not.

You gonna go in there, use a platform YOU TRUST with your money, better it's regulated by law of your country. If anything happen,  you are protected.

So you go in S&P index, think its a fair price at that time, put in 100,000 there and that's it. 1 time....maybe few months, years, u have capital accumulated and put in again, when it's fair and hopefully it grows. Your trade probably infrequent if ur investors.

What's USD8, if your 100K after 10 years, u hope compounded and grow to be 3, 4 x.....later.

You buy at a fair price and you wait. You become rich, not by frequent buying and selling, u rich by waiting your investment grow and compounded over time.

If you day trade and more on speculators, then yes, better u choose a less costly platform as each fees charges of each trade will eat ur profits or make ur lost worst off.

Provided if one has a lum sum, which again, I highly doubt most Malaysian have.

Awesome. Webull is one of the best alternative to robin hood in the US.

And they are not like moomoo or tiger where Free is not free. For webull, free is really free.

Yes they mentioned they support fractional shares but must be market order. I
t's superior to syfe. Cause its really free unlike moomoo or tiger.
