We use ANZ’s platform - it’s easy because our accounts are with ANZ. I could get cheaper trades, but I don’t trade that often that a few dollars here or there make much of a difference.

I used to like E trade until taken over by ANZ.I use it for my punting portfolio now.

They revamped the platform last year - I didn’t like it initially, but it’s grown on me. Unfortunately the back room stuff now appears to be handled overseas.

I was with Sanford and CommSec took them over and I stayed with them for online share investments. I still use a number of advice brokers as well.

I've been using Bell Direct for a number of years and am quite happy (I used to use etrade until ANZ took them over and changed the platform).

E-Trade was run by ANZ.
ANZ now use CNC Markets as their platform

I use Self wealth: flat $9.50 irrespective of trade. Easy to use online app, can set limits etc.

Who is Cnc markets? It is still badged as ANZ share investing, so is that the underlying provider?

edit - I have just read the small print at the bottom and it does say CMC (not cnc) markets stockbroking is the contact. I have only had to phone them once and they were pretty useless. However everything else stays the same I.e. I can instantly transfer funds from my ANZ account to my share account and trade which is what I wanted. Sometimes you see an opportunity and want to act on it within a few minutes

Not to mention the great success they're having rolling out Taco Bell here right now... they're certainly onto a winner, but their dividend is a little low for me. I do think KFC and Taco Bell are heading in the right direction for the Australian market though.

Fat fingers .......that’s a retirement thing
Was working my fingers to the bone during the week but went on cruise control on Friday because I could.
Friday night we were with friends who are learning Commsec along with hybrids from CBA. They needed 5% instead of 2% on a term deposit. At 75 they are travelling more.

I have bought into Flexigroup. It’s had a poor history of market disappointments, but has a new CEO who is pushing them along. Has a BNPL offering called Humm, which is a rebadge of some of their old products. It’s gone up a fair bit on my entry price, but it’s probably too early to say whether the turn around is working. Early signs are good and it pays a fully franked dividend and makes a substantial profit. My cautious nature likes that.

 

[get me outta here]

@cove, I am not 75, but I'd like to know if there is a link to a 5% TD!

GMOH you have to give up a bit of security and get into hybrid securities as a parking area while you look for a long term investment that suits you. You can sell something like CBAPH and get your money back in a couple of days using some broker like Commsec as the cost of transacting is critical.
This is not financial advice......
I looked up the running yield and that has recently dropped to 4.81% due to CBA running a new issue this week.

IMF Bentham had a pretty good report today if you like ambulance chasing style of business.
I bought some a while ago.

Home Consortium HMC listed without any problems.This is where the old Masters stores being re-purposed.
Primewest is going to be tight to get and will list in November.They manage syndicates that hold commercial and industrial real estate and clip the management ticket as the long term property managers.
