CHEAPEST NON-ADVISORY PHONE BROKERS

GOLD WINNER FP MARKETS There’s plenty of market information to digest before you make the all-important call

If you prefer to conduct your share trades over the phone rather than online, than FP Markets, winner of this award for 10 years in a row, is the broker for you.

When you trade with FP you pay the same brokerage fee regardless of whether it’s online or over the phone, a unique offering from an online broker in Australia.

Not only does it suit those who want to trade over the phone, it’s also convenient for frequent travellers who don’t always have online connectivity.

The broker also offers a comprehensive free education portal to help investors of all levels make better choices. Its week-ahead webinars, which are available every Monday, help investors understand some of the big themes that are expected to drive the market in the coming days.

Daily market reports give a rundown of what happened overnight on offshore markets and an opening call on the local market. This includes a focus on each of the Australian, US, Asian and European markets and also on commodities, oil futures and foreign exchange.
