The special (most valuable) benefit of FSM over ETF — no live trading no live prices
- no live price, so I’m less tempted to check my portfolio during office hours
- All orders are queued till end of day, so even if I can see live prices of underlying stocks, I’m less tempted to engage in trading during office hours
Other benefits of FSM:
- specialty stocks otherwise inaccessible, like other regions in other currencies.
- small minimum amount ($100 or $1000) with the standard upfront fee (5%) waived. Extremely important for testing the water.
- $0 transaction cost thought trailer fee applies
