Hi there!

If you've reached this page, it means you're quite keen on starting your stock trading journey.

Many of my readers have asked about how to get onboard the trading train or simply which broker should they use.

This page is here to answer all of your questions! 

As you know, I’ve been investing for a while now and in the past couple years I’ve advocated for digital investing in particular. It gives you control over not just how much you want to invest but what and when you want to invest! Plus it’s way cheaper which means you get to keep more of the profits.

So here’s the 411 on getting started.

I recommend signing up with Rakuten Trade!​​​​​​​

Not Sure What to Trade?

Whatever your experience level, Dividends are a good place to start! They might just be the magic dust needed to give your trading efforts a little bit more omph!

Dividends are like allowances routinely rewarded to you in the form of cash or shares from a company's net earnings.
