Brokerages Gone Social

Even though discount brokerages haven’t traditionally portrayed the most “fun and friendly” image, more and more of them are starting to become visible on social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. While you (hopefully) won’t find those embarrassing pictures of a drunken night gone wild or an angry rant about a horrible boss, plugging into the news feeds of a discount brokerage can be an interesting way to get insight into the organization, follow any promotions that may be underway as well as get a glimpse at the conversations they’re having with their customers.

While some Canadian discount brokers, such as Interactive Brokers, Jitneytrade, Questrade, Scotia iTrade and Virtual Brokers, have their own dedicated twitter and Facebook pages, others such as Disnat Direct, TD Waterhouse and BMO InvestorLine bundle messages about their other financial products and services along with discount brokerage news.

Social media sites, such as Twitter and Facebook, are tricky territory for companies (especially financial services companies) because these channels are public and interactions between the company and customers are visible for everyone to see. On the other hand these social media sites offer the opportunity for you to share what you love, or love to hate about your brokerage, giving straight feedback and having your voice heard as a client.

One handy feature of being plugged into something like a discount brokerage’s Twitter feed is that it offers a fast way of seeing what other investors or traders are experiencing. If a website is down or there is an outage of service, one of the best places to check (outside of the trading platform itself) and see what’s going on is via the ‘twittersphere’. Active traders especially are among the first to let others know if something is amiss.

Our table below has those Canadian discount brokerages that are currently on either Facebook and/or Twitter as well as links to their respective feeds.

Online Discount Brokerage Deals & Promotions – September 2012

The arrival of September is generally when markets shake off the quiet days of summer and start to come back to life. Across the landscape of discount brokerages, it looks like the major deal offerings that were around in August are standing firm or are being extended out.

The major offerings of free trades/trade commission rebates continue to be a favourite amongst the discount brokerages with Virtual Brokers, Questrade, Scotia iTrade, National Bank Direct Brokerage all continuing to “give in order to get” investors’ business. An interesting catch is the 10 free trades promotion being offered by TD Waterhouse discount brokerage for downtown Vancouver clients.

Online Discount Brokerage Deals & Promotions – August 2012

As both investors and markets slow down in the tail end of summer, the discount brokerage deals and incentives have also gotten a bit quieter. Still, for those of you looking for a deal on a discount brokerage account, there are some hefty commission rebate discounts being offered up this August.

BMO Investorline has upped the competition ante by offering $150 cash back as well as 150 trades when you deposit $150,000 or more into an Investorline account. What’s interesting about this deal (the 150/150 promotion) is that it is open to existing clients as well as new clients, and it can also be combined with their refer a friend offer.

For those with less money to be depositing, Virtual Brokers is offering 150 free trades with a $25,000 deposit, and Questrade, as part of their new Questrade Advantage program will give you 100 free trades for a deposit of at least $10,000. Scotia iTrade continues to offer 100 free trades for a deposit of $25,000 for new accounts and will also let you try their new FlightDesk™ platform free for 60 days. A deal launched mid-month in July by National Bank Direct Brokerage called the “Commission Holiday Promo” gives new clients a $750 commission rebate with a deposit of at least $25,000.

For very active and pro-level traders as well as platform-savvy traders, you’ll want to check out the exclusive SparxTrading.com offer with Jitneytrade to take advantage of Realtick Platform discounts as well as trading volume discounts.

We also know from the deal rumour mill that there are some exciting promos being put together from a few Canadian discount brokerages for this September so be sure to check our deals section if you’re not quite ready to open your trading account.

Online Discount Brokerage Deals & Promotions – July 2012

Summer is officially here and with it are a few major league offers that Canadian online discount brokerages have going. It seems like this month, the four big promos are from Virtual Brokers, Questrade, Scotia iTrade and Disnat Direct. We’ve also got a special discount brokerage deal offering from Jitneytrade now officially launched!

It seems like lots of free trades is all the rage this summer. Virtual Brokers has extended their offer of 150 free trades to September 30th when you open an account with at least $25 000. From Questrade, a chance to get 100 free trades when you open and fund an account with $10 000. Questrade also has a “refer a friend” deal that looks like an interesting win-win promo. Scotia iTrade has extended their 100 trade credit offer out to Sept 30th, but to get that deal you’ll have to pony up at least $25 000. Disnat Direct’s Active 5 offer is still in full effect – definitely one to take notice of if you’re an active trader or are thinking about becoming one, 50 trades commission credit and 5 months of best rate trading along with 5 months of their active trading platforms with data make it definitely worth considering – you’ll need $10 000 to land that deal. National Bank Direct Investing also just joined in on the giveaway front with their $750 commission reimbursement when you deposit $25 000 into a new account – make sure to read the fine print on this one though because reimbursements will get paid out in either January 2013 or April 2013 depending on when you open your account.

The official SparxTrading deal with Jitneytrade is now officially launched. If you’re a very active trader, you’ll want to check out the details below on this amazing offer of discounted commissions and a huge discount on the RealTick active trader platform.
