I made a decent amount of money trading potash years ago. I was up about 1% a day when my money was in. My money was in 30 to 50% of the time. There was a predictable pattern at the time. Pattern stopped and I stayed out.
Looking for a pattern on whatever is actually a good move that I've contemplated but never used yet.
I can't remember the actual numbers but IIRC I would buy when pot.to dropped below 100 and sell when it went over 130. Wait until it drops below 100 and start again. I rode that wave quite a few times. Sometimes, it would drop to 80 after I bought or 145 after I sold, but who cares, I had no way to predict those swings, I was happy with my 30%.
used to be able to do that with Oil Hou.TO before it went pear shaped and ****** everyone who had anything in it
Reco.v could be big also

Blackberry is killing it for me ... almost tripled my $ so far.
Btw, here's a technology I'm investing in when the opportunity presents itself. I'm pasting from the EV thread:
"Check out what3words. It's an app where the makers have put a 3m x 3m grid over the entire surface of the earth and each 3m squared section is assigned a 3 word address to exactly pinpoint where that location is.
It's going to be added to forthcoming GPS systems and will be essential for accurate drone delivery and autonomous driving where the drone/car needs to know EXACTLY where to drop off the package or pick up the passenger.
I can see that being added to the arsenal of tools of autonomous cars 1 day, especially after 5G."

What platform are people using for trades? I've signed up with Wealthsimple.
I'm using Scotia tirade. I signed up when it was etrade and online discount brokerages weren't so plentiful. I'm not an active trader, I normally buy and hold so there is no big reason for me to switch.
I use TD WebBroker. The first place to try is with the discount brokerage arm of whatever bank you normally deal with, just set up an account (which should be free) and give it a go.
The only relative comparison I have is to National Bank. For the online brokerage user interface, TD > NB (although NB's system is good enough for what I use it for - a couple of transactions per year with my TFSA). I haven't used anything else.
Td here as well but you have to watch td will charge you if you have less than 10 g in the account I just had to fight with them last month after being charged an account maintenance fee despite being well above that was very close to moving everything from td after that. Not so much the fee but the attitude. Only with them still because someone from head office called to apologise and offer some perks to stay.

RBC isn’t exactly a leader in this. Try TD direct investing.
That post was six years ago. Your comment may still be valid but the landscape has changed significantly since 2015.
I'd hold on to it...
