Hey, great videos, quite informational! You’ve stated in a couple videos you must buy whole shares and cannot purchase fractions of one which is true for the most part. With a Robinhood account they do have an option to do just that (purchase fractions of a share), unfortunately I too am a Canadian citizen and Robin Hood is American only :/
Canadian in a T-Shirt Hi, the referral code saya in-valid.🙄
Bummer. I wish I would have seen the promo code before I signed up. Thanks for all of your info. VERY helpful for a newb to the market.
That’s okay, you’ll make that $50 back in no time! I’m glad the video was helpful! =)
Your channel is just what I’ve been searching for! Thank you for putting out this super clear and easy to understand tutorial. I especially like that you are from Canada since the content is more relevant for me! I am up in the Yukon! Thanks for doing what you do 🙂
Thank you Tara! I really appreciate those kind words! And wow, you are probably the farthest North subscriber that I have! I’m certain it must be beautiful up there =)
Great content, thanks so much for taking the time to post these “how to” guides for Questrade, when I downloaded and started with them it was somewhat daunting but your guides have been a massive help and it feels so simple now… Once again thanks Eh!
Thank you Steve! I am happy to hear that my Questrade tutorials have been helpful! Hopefully soon, Questrade will notice and maybe start paying me for doing their job for them! 😅
I’m only three min in but I can tell this video is exactly what I was hoping to find. Nice work 👍
That’s what I love to hear! Thanks Wray and enjoy the rest! The fun stuff is coming ahead =)
Your videos are too helpful for a beginner like me! THANK YOU!

Totally kidding! I’m glad my videos have been helpful and thanks for watching! 😁
@@CanadianTShirt hahahah!
@@CanadianTShirt Yes it’s so to the point, love it!
@@CanadianTShirt Can l buy US stocks by using TFSA? Cause you said you always do it with RRSP. What’s the difference?
This guy is the goat, must protect him at all costs. Ive never understood stocks more clearly in my life and where to go and actually start. God bless you bro.
Wow! Thanks Phil! That really means a lot to me! 🙏 I know how confusing and intimidating investing can be when I was a beginner so I really try my best to break it down to basics in my videos. When I’m talking to the camera, I’m talking to past Adrian and I’m glad to hear that approach is useful and accessible to you guys! 😁
I’m also making a video soon on how to actually open an account with Questrade and how to transfer money into it so stay tuned in the next few days for that! =)

Thank you Claudine!!! That’s what I try to do! I try to break these down for total beginners! =)
@@CanadianTShirt Hi, Can you please advise which platform is best for day traders? Any limitations for Canadians? Minimum amount required? Can i buy same stocks multiple times in a single day? Will my amount be ready to reinvest right after i sell them in market? what do you advise about ppl buying stocks after hours? what about stock options? how does it work? What about TD ameritrade? is it a good platform? I am looking to start working with 25k and gradually go up to 100k in a year time? What is the best formula to apply in day trading?
please reply to inquiries as I am very close to starting trading in stocks.
2020 was a great year for me despite the pandemic I’ve been trading with expert Mrs Jane service for months now and all my trade have been going well
Mrs Jane is obviously the best, I invested $3,000 and she made profit of $28,000 for me just in 15 days, Her success story is everywhere
Wow I’m surprise someone just mentioned and recommended expert Mrs Jane trading services,l through people don’t know her…. she’s really awesome.

New beginner here…although he’s using Questrade, wondering how it would work via a bank’s TFSA
Seriously, Questrade should sponsor you for doing detailed videos like this!!
