My experience so far on this platform.

I used to study in the UK. So I have a digital bank account (Monzo) based in the UK with substantial GBP denominated savings. But I only managed to open a Trading212 account well after my resident pass expired. Hence, I can only choose to fund my account with two base currency, USD or EUR. I used EUR coz I wanted to focus on buying in the European markets.

how come you don't open high street banks like Barclays, HSBC etc but Monzo??

I have a mainstream account too at HSBC, which I primarily use to receive international payments. But for day to day use, its Monzo

Trading212 vs eToro for US stocks? Any sifu have any advice?

Considerations around all fees, ease of getting money in & out, and also secureness/regulations (FCA vs ASIC if it makes any diff for us).

interested to know this too.

Additionally, is it a must to have UK bank account? Can we do wire transfer like TDA SG?

Trading212 has been great. The platform is robust and won't lag if there's a spike in market activities.
I thoroughly enjoy my trading there.

hmm.gif seems to be super close to spot rate with no markup.
1 MYR / USD 0.2448 from yahoo finance

Was researching and concerned on withdrawal process but this seems OK.

That's BigPay rate.
T212 just sent USD to BigPay and BP is the one converting to MYR.

I receive 11.2k in my BigPay account. It just sits there and I can't top up because already exceed 10k.

Just curious is it more than you deposited? Was wondering if the refund function works if you make profit instead of just pulling out your deposits (with losses). Good to know that you can hold more than 10k on bigpay.

Nice. Guess I'll keep using it because etoro's bank transfer site is dodgy as hell...still haven't renewed my passport yet so T212 is out of my reach for now. laugh.gif

Does that mean that your funding method is bigpay? As I know, the withdrawal is sent to the funding source.
