Imagine this: you’ve read about a little-known company, which is set to be the next big thing.
But you’re unsure what your next move should be? Do you trust that information, and go “all-in”?
Absolutely not!
The next steps you take should always be the same: research, research, research.
And that’s why the app, or broker you use, must have access to real-time comprehensive research, news and insightful analysis. It is in those finer details that can make the difference in an investment opportunity.
WHO’S THE BEST?
So, who offers the best – whether free or paid – to the research platforms?
If you’re wanting to get your research and news from the likes of AccessWire, MTNewswires, UBS, Briefing.com, QuantConnect or Quantum Research Group (just to name a few), there’s only a few places to go. One being Interactive Brokers, another being Charles Schwab.
What makes these two stand out is the breadth and range of economic news and platforms available to prospective investors, but nudging ahead is Interactive Brokers, by several reasons: the fees payable and the ability to use this information whilst in demo/paper mode.
This means you can test out everything you have read, without actually making – or more importantly losing – money.
And if you do wish to use a paid feature for Research, a small fee is retained to cover administrative and other costs in relation to the provision of these data services. The rest goes to the vendor.
