How to calculate the cost of a trade


Jensen17

Question

Hi. I am totally new to trading and am finding your site really informative and good to use.

I have searched as much as I can but can't seem to find information on how to calculate the 'deposit required' when making a trade. I am still in demo mode and wanted to get this right before going live.

For example: I bought 60 shares of Ripple at 0.2975 and the deposit required was $189.60. This is not itemised anywhere when you make the order, I had to go to the statement section to find this information. I have tried to work out how to get to $189.60 but can't, I am clearly doing something wrong.

I am wanting to know how to calculate the deposit required before I buy any shares so I don't spend over my limit. If I only wanted to spend $150 on Ripple shares then how do I work this out.

Sorry for the long winded question, just want to make sure I do things right! 😉

Thank you for your help, Penny

    • Does anyone else know any other SB providers that you can use to trade through TV?  I've only so far seen CFD providers which doesn't work for me due to tax reasons (mainly the hassle of having to account for it as well as the obvious cost).
    • Is there any update on when/if there will be any integration with Tradingview???
    • The anonymity of cryptocurrency transactions can vary depending on the specific cryptocurrency you use and the methods you use. While some cryptocurrencies provide a degree of privacy and anonymity, it is important to note that achieving complete anonymity can be difficult. Most cryptocurrencies operate on a pseudonymous basis. Transactions are recorded in a public ledger, called a blockchain, using cryptographic addresses instead of personal information. However, these addresses are usually not directly linked to a real identity, unless someone voluntarily discloses this information. Some cryptocurrencies, such as Monero (XMR) and Zcash (ZEC), are specifically designed to increase privacy and anonymity. I read on https://deeplab.com/darkweb/anonymous-sudan-launches-cyberattacks-on-middle-eastern-news-outlets-expands-target-list-with-four-additional-names that some people use this anonymity as a cyber attack.
