Online Philippine Stock Trading

Stock Investing nowadays goes online. Ideally, beginners should start small to learn the basics of investing since this investment vehicle is very risky. For as low as Php 5,000, you can now open an account and start stock investing. Most of them only charge a minimum of 0.25% commission.

Below are the Online Stock Trading Portals.

1. Citiseconline

Citiseconline is I think the most comprehensive and detailed online Philippine Stock Trading Tool. They are the only listed online stock trading company in the Philippine Stock Exchange. They provide technical data and analysis on every stock.

However, I haven't used and tried to trade stocks with this tool so I cannot make a comment about this.

Attached is a PDF file of their Stock Investing.
