Whether you’re new to trading or a seasoned veteran, TradeDirect has the features you need to make your own decisions and invest at your pace. Our fees are among the lowest in Switzerland.
TradeDirect has a number of powerful features, including a portfolio simulator, analytical tools, smartphone alerts, and a market news feed. You can also access stock ratings and analyses from theScreener, an independent research firm in Switzerland.
With the TradeDirect app, it’s easy to keep tabs on the markets. You can also buy and sell stocks on your smartphone, and since every second counts, you’ll appreciate the app’s express BCV smartID authentication.
You know your money is in good hands with TradeDirect. That’s because in Switzerland, cash holdings are guaranteed up to CHF 100,000 per depositor per financial institution. What’s more, TradeDirect is backed by BCV, one of the few Swiss cantonal banks to be rated AA by Standard & Poor’s. You can also rely on our customer service representatives – who speak English, French, and German – to answer any questions you may have.
TradeDirect lets you trade stocks in over 35 markets (including the SMI, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, CAC, and Xetra), along with all Swiss-listed warrants and structured products, 4,900 Swiss-listed bonds, and 4,700 investment funds from around the world.
Your orders are transmitted to the stock exchanges during their official trading hours, except for Deutsche Börse AG (Frankfurt), to which orders are only transmitted until 8.00pm.
