Commsec for international share trading

[voltage]

CommSec have reduced their fee for international share trading recently (0.31%). I would be interested to hear from anyone who uses this service and what they think.

On trades in the US, I pay 14.95 EUR, or about 22 AUD (via TD Direct in Luxembourg). So on $10,000 USD, thats AUD22 via TD, or AUD31 via Commsec.

I suspect that the nine bucks a pop might mount up quite quickly for some. . .

I do not trade often so do not mind paying the extra $9. My full broker charges 1% ie $100 on $10000 compared to the $31.
Can you set up an account with TD Direct in Luxembourg from NZ?

I have no idea. I imagine so. Or you could look at Saxobank in Denmark.

Let us know how you get on, others may be interested
