4.8 out of 5 - Simply the best all-around option in Canada . The combination of the best customer service (by a large margin), free buying and selling of ETFs, the user-friendly app, and the 15+ year track record of elite innovation, are what put Qtrade in a class of its own."

[Qtrade’s] superior user experience (made even better this year with a new suite of portfolio analytics tools) and market analysis for ETF investors also makes this online broker the leader in our UX and ETF categories.
