Using DeGiro

tod1982

Hi All,

Quick question on using DeGiro when buying a share.

I have always used Goodbody in the past but due to the lower costs have decided to open an account with DeGiro. I am a long term investor and any stock I have bought I have owned for a number of years.

I was looking at buying a company's shares on DeGiro, to hold long term but am getting confused with type and order duration.
To buy these shares at the current market price and have them added to my portfolio what should i select for a) type and b) duration

Thanks

Does anyone know if it’s possible to purchase US options on Degiro? Been looking for NASDAQ options but can’t find any. Not sure if I’m doing something wrong but if it’s not possible, can anyone recommend a different platform to use? Cheers

No options available.

You can upgrate from Basic to Active accoutn for free and then you get Margin and Options available to you.

One word of warnign, I'm not keen on Margin (basically loans), and it sets this by default, I've gone into it by a few euro a few times when I've miscalcualted charges.

Is degiro safe,

Let’s say you have 100k in cash and 100k in stocks in degiro. Can you loose this money if degiro went bust?

I saw on their faq. That you should be fine but then I also found other material where it says they have protection up to 20k, and if you don’t have a custodian account, they Lon your shares out to other people and if those people go busy. You loose your money?

I wouldn't be leaving 100k sitting in the cash account, it's a bank account in your own name in Germany, but even at tht I'd be happier having it sit at home in my AIB account. Even at that, if I had that much in deposits (never would as it's losing spending power daily), I'd split it across a few banks just in case.

Shares are safe, it's the company you own going bust thay will lose you money.

I know Jim is gonna respond with a "don't use a discount broker" post, so just to preempt it, please explain why Jim

I don't think that the Degiro platform offers call/put options on individual U.S. stocks irrespective of type of account held

Sorry, you're right, European stocks only

I opened a new account with DeGiro yesterday and deposited money through SEPA transfer. When I visit DeGiro now and log in it just asks me to connect my bank account no other option other than log out.

Will this change once my funds transfer goes through?

It's been a few years since I opened an account, but I think that was it.

Depending on your bank, the money will probably hit Degiro on Tuesday, and when that happens you will have access to everything.

Aye it'll take a while for the funds and account to clear.

Just wondering if anyone is purchasing the Vanguard S&P ETF monthly or bi-monthly etc via DeGiro. I was going to steer clear due to the relatively complicated 8 year Tax Rule. Now I'm thinking if DeGiro transactions can be exported relatively easily I could just hand it off to my wife's accountant. Anyone any thoughts ?

I'm trying to do my tax returns and add in dividend revenue from Degiro Vanguard ETF's in as additional income. revenue.ie has options to add dividends income but then only 4 types;

Dividends from Irish Resident Companies
UK Dividends
US Dividends
Canadian Dividends

Should I pick one of these? Or some other option? thanks

Anyone having issues with it today? Made a bid before opening and in my portfolio it's listed as MMF but when I download the pdf I can see the ticker for it.

I've noticed my Glanbia shareprice hasn't been updating. Anyone else having this issue with Glanbia? The price hasn't updated since Jan 15 for me.

You can trade, you're just not going to see anything in realtime.

Thanks. I understand it's not real-time (15 mins delay I believe?) but there's been no update in 5 days. Other ISEQ shares in my portfolio are updating just not Glanbia. Current price is 10.30, Degiro has been stuck at 10.09 for the last 5 days.

Might be worth sending their support email a message, I've found them to be responsive.

Anyone having problem with "," and "." on degiro today? It seems they did a mess with the values.

Not Glanbia, but I've had the same issue with Hibernia REIT not updating the price for around 2 weeks.

I've sent them an email but haven't got a reply yet.

Balance History? Has anyone found a way to look back at your balance history for different months ie performance over the year... I've kept track of deposits but not the portfolio balance at the end of each month... Tried the Zeus chrome extension and it's useless

This extension link
gives the portfolio performance in percentage but nothing else so got rid of it... (possibly dodgy to have it running anyway)

My Hibernia REIT was the same, frozen at the same price for about 2 weeks. At lunchtime today it was still frozen. I got an email off them then telling me that it only shows the closing price, I logged into the app and the price was miraculously updated again. They must have done something at their end but it works again.

Max Q

I raised a query with Degiro a week ago but have had no response. The Glanbia share price updated to €10.23 on Jan 21 (having been stuck at €10.09 for a week), but now it's been stuck at 10.23 since the 21st (current price is €10.34). So something still not right..

brianomc

It was 14 days before I got a reply, so it might be another few days before they get back to you.
So it must have been frozen at the same price for at least 3 weeks

I'm holding GME shares that obviously I will want to sell soon. I notice now on DEGIRO that there's no market sell order for GME anymore. Why is this and how will I sell otherwise?

I know I can use a stop loss but that must be set at lower than the current share price, which isn't much use to me.

AMC and GME warnings on almost all stock sites due to volatility hence most not allowing buy/sell orders.

Hi guys,

I'm new here and need some help with Degiro.

I have an degiro account for a few years and my current account was linked to it for deposits/withdrawals (stitung bank).

I just made a transfer to my degiro account but it seems they new bank details (flatex bank).

I used the old bank details, have I lost my money? I've written to degiro but it says 2-4 days.

Any help or guidance on what to do would be welcome.
