TradeZero Canada focuses on U.S. markets and active-trading tools. Its zero-commission equity pricing is conditional: an order must be a non-marketable limit order for at least 100 shares of an eligible NYSE, Nasdaq or AMEX security trading above USD $1. Other orders generally cost USD $0.005 per share with a USD $0.49 minimum.
The product has a USD $500 minimum and advertises leverage, short locates, extended trading from 4 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET and four synchronized platforms. ZeroPro has a monthly fee unless the volume waiver is met; other platform and market-data conditions vary.
TradeZero's personal-account application offers cash and margin accounts, not TFSA, RRSP, or FHSA accounts. Canadian-listed securities are unavailable, so this product does not meet the guide baseline.
