Generally, Questrade does not charge interest for intraday trading (opening and closing a position on the same day) provided you have sufficient cash in the specific currency of the trade, as the borrowed funds are not held overnight.
- Cash Account/Sufficient Funds: If you have the cash, no interest is charged.
- Borrowing (Negative Balance): If you buy U.S. securities without sufficient USD (using CAD instead), you are borrowing, and interest is charged from the date the trade settles (T+1).
- Intraday Shorting: No borrowing fees apply to short selling if you close the position on the same day.
- CFDs: Intraday CFD positions do not incur overnight financing costs.
- ECN Fees: While commissions are $0 for stocks/ETFs, you may still be charged Electronic Communication Network (ECN) fees if your order removes liquidity from the market.
