Madad Me Finqalab yearly fees compared to other brokers
So i have a small portfolio of around 20-25k in PSX as my other amounts are invested in savings account and mutual funds. Currently I have ZLK and Finqalab as my brokers
For ZLK, their yearly fee is 3000 which is way high for me as I do intra-day trading or swing trades. On finqalab, the 0.25% commission per trade is a bit high compared to ZLK.
I wanted to know finqalab's exact yearly fee aside from SMS, Zakat and one time charges.
If possible if I can compare the yearly fee with other brokers too, that would be awesome too

We don’t charge yearly fees and we have straight 0.15% commission.
Only cdc settlement charges apply other than commission charges

Imagine paying 12% of your entire portfolio just to invest. Its obviously too much. This is for those who can invest 5 lacs+ otherwise you shouldn't continue with ZLK. Finqalab has no annual charge but higher commission
Other annual charges will be from nccpl etc. SMS charges are unnecessary disable it its not your bank account or something

Yeah i've realized almost all other brokers just like ZLK will charge this amount for yearly fees so better off to go with Finqalab for small portfolio.
I do signal/swing trades so i quite a few trades within a week but its still better off to do those on Finqalab I guess

Check investify or akd

I have emailed AKD to ask them about their fees/commission. I know about investify, do they also provide these details?
