    I am currently based in Toronto and using TD Webbroker. I know that Questrade is another option.

    However, which platform is commonly used in Ireland? I believe the likes of Questrade is not allowed for use outside of Canada.

    Thanks!

    No I mean why is it better to go with a bigger player :) Curious to know why it makes a difference, especially when Degiro have hundreds of thousands of users and are established.

    Been with Davy Select for what seems like forever, whilst the fees are high, Ive never had an issue with them, Ive been happy to pay for that peace of mind.

    Im thinking of switching platform . Its all medium to long term holds.

    Degiro seems to be the one everyone mentions these days when this topic comes up.
    Any issues or concerns, recommendations.
