Steady...

Steady, no real change.

Stuck with the 1wealth default settings

Have decided to start with 5k. Have spread it evenly over 5 shares. Have kept all trading parameters at the recommended settings provided by 1Wealth. Andrew swears by them, have no idea so will go with the flow.

New trading account good to go

Commsec paperwork arrived and I went into bank to ID myself, all sorted, ready to start trading. Have spent the last week doing some paper trades. I’m not getting too ahead of myself but all four paper trades are up so that’s a good sign.

1Wealth service was good, ready to roll

Just got off the phone to 1Wealth. Took about twenty minutes to get fully setup, spoke to Andrew from Customer Support and i’m feeling more confident already. Nice guy, knows his stuff and explained in a bit more detail the strategy we will be using moving forward. He has suggested switching brokers, i’m currently paying $25 per trade with NAB, he has put me onto commsec which will be $14.95 per trade. Small saving but it all adds up.

The 1Wealth journey begins...

Today is the first day of the journey. It’s Wednesday the 20^th of April and the 1Wealth package has just arrived in the post. As promised it was delivered the next day, it has the all important software,  a welcome letter from the customer support team and instructions for getting started which are basically, stick the disc in and call us for a code.
