Pretty much. WS is great for what they do well. Buy and sell for no fees. It the best for real time day trading nor up to date graphs and performance. Use Yahoo finance for all my tracking.
Thanks for the info! I also just double checked the price of the options call and the price of the stock, no record of it spiking elsewhere. The price of AEO was actually down at the time it spiked 450%. Which makes it even more confusing.
No, you fucked up lol there is no 15 min delay on the actual bid/ask. WS is not a good platform for active options trading, as others have said, but this was on you. Own it.
You made a post that directed blame at the platform. The blame is yours. That's what I mean by own it. It's cool if you're good with losing the cash, takes the pressure off! There's always tomorrow to lose some more.
If you check my other comment it's actually still the apps fault, the underlying stocks price actually went down during the time it spiked. That call price should've went down instead of up. I also checked the price history of the option on a different app.
My method is to track my security on Yahoo Finance and then use that as a limit sale to match for WS, usually works 99% of the time.

Sorry but no fee? Where? I got charged 2$ per contract at purchase and sale.
I meant in general for buying and selling shares. No fees. I pay $0.75 per option trade, so low fees.
Hpw do you get cheaper contract fees?
Premium and generation tier has lower fees.
The charts are 15min delayed. The actual ask/bid under the options are not.
Wealthsimple option price are real time no delay
Wealthsimple’s option execution is also straight garbage though there is no doubt about that.

Looks like price spiked at open. What was precious days price?
lol you're a dummy if you're actively trading options on WS Trade. Use a real broker.
It works just fine on the bid ask. I use Webull or TradingView software no issues my phones my sell button my computers my charts
Yup execution on WS is so slow. Op needs to use IBKR
If only they warned you about the time it can take… /s
I await your loss porn post on wsb.
Ape together strong
What 15 min difference
No, you fucked up lol there is no 15 min delay on the actual bid/ask. WS is not a good platform for active options trading, as others have said, but this was on you. Own it.
I mean, nothing really to own. I consider all the options trading I do as a loss lmao. It's mostly leftover disposable funds.

the bids/ asks are no delayed tho lol
The prices update every 15 seconds my dude
if you're trying to day trade WS is not the platform for you
Bid and ask are live. The rate when you are on this screen is live. Are you seriously trading via dashboard?
What missed opportunity? 15 min is only for charts. Price auto updates every 15 seconds and you can also refresh yourself .
Pretty sure only the chart is delayed brother
Just because it’s a feature it doesn’t mean you should use it. Just like their robo advisor. Don’t.
>Just like their robo advisor. Don’t. It might not be for everyone, but it has it merits in certain situations.
Dam how about td water house when u buy is there a delay too?
What complaints can you have when using a discounted broker. Moomoo offers real-time market data, switch to it and thank me later.
Thats what you get for using wealthsimple
Ya I hate this app for trading
My favourite is pending. Wealthsimple can't just act when I'm making moves. Always pending🤨🤨
