Why is it a scam? Because it charges you 1.5% currency fee? You’d be surprised at how much the banks charge...
If you really want to avoid that, open an account at a bank in USD, and use norbert’s gambit to deposit USD directly and trade.
Well WS u have to pay both ways on every trade. You can't have US currency in WS.
I use a US based brokerage
Depends how much you want to trade. If you plan on buying some US stocks and holding for the next 40 years, getting dinged the WS exchange fee a few times isn't a big deal. If you plan on making lots of trades, then yes, you're better off using a different brokerage. I know quite a few people use Questrade, although I've never used it. I just use my TD Direct Investing because I can hold a USD cash balance between trades.
