hey dogtracker,

thanks for posting the comparison.. napapaisip ako dito ah... aside from frequent errors and lag time which so far i've been tolerating... the fees are definitely a big issue to consider.

Abby,

Here's another one, First Metro Sec. It's cheaper, even on the Sell side, unfortunately I have nothing to sell there so I can't make any comparison for the Sell.

Hi Abby,

This is the computation in excel that I use for philstock... I noticed this while taking the trading history to excel and getting computations on how to compute the actual commision/fee. i like it precise

for buy:
net amount = # of shares X price x (1 + 0.004464 )
this is the multiplier I get now... it was much cheaper a month ago... It was around 0.003192

for sell
net amount = # of shares X price x (1 - 0.008192 )

hope this helps!

hi xentinel2, i'm sorry but i think abbylim didnt ask how she can do it in excel, but the issue here i think is, how accord capital/philstocks compute their charges/fees which is expensive compared to other online brokers. Thanks.

Oops! hock: Sorry.. I do believe I read somewhere on the top that abby wanted to compute the commision and charges in excel... oh well... :?
