Invest in stocks market as an international student

[Addy1911]

I have been inversting and trading in stock from very start when I landed in Canada (2009) as student. Now after getting so much experience, I would suggest go to Questrade they charge the cheapest trxn fee compared to all banks. Your just need to sign one extra form w8-Ben, otherwise no other restriction to start trading. Obviously you need money to start with (min $1000)

Can you please tell me
What you in fill in citizenship column for questrade and how you fill w8 ben form with canadian information or Indian information

If you are buying and selling currencies in your bank account, then this is not considered work.

Honestly, it is a risky undertaking if you do not have the proper experience and knowledge. But, with the help of a broker, a completely feasible undertaking

Hi..A student is not allowed to participated in any kinds of financial markets in foreign countries like, Canada, Australia, USA, New Zealand & more. As above replied on the base of Indian stock markets, Yes you can invest in Indian stock markets or commodity market if your are more than 18 years old and you should have all required documents (Must be Indian Citizen) of trading account opening.

Required Documents for account opening in Indian Stock markets:

• A Photograph
• PAN Card
• Adhar Card
• Address proof
• Margin cheque
• 6 Month Bank Statement

You can invest in canada as a student
