Trade Plus is here: built for active traders
New tools. Same zero commission trading. Chart, execute, and manage positions in a single view.
Trade Plus is a professional-grade trading interface built into Wealthsimple's platform (web/desktop only). One view for granular charting, on-chart execution, and full position management - all on a powerful commission-free trading platform.
It's free for every Wealthsimple client, no subscription required.
Your new trading view
Trade Plus gives you faster execution, richer data, and more precise tools — without adding complexity.
- Analyse with more precision. Access real-time sub-day intervals, candlestick views, and technical indicators — moving averages, RSI, VWAP, and more — to time entries and exits with confidence.
- Trade directly from the chart. Place orders and define take-profit targets directly from the chart, without navigating away or losing your view. It’s the shortest distance between strategy and execution, so when the moment comes, nothing slows you down.
- Manage everything on one screen. Manage your stocks and options together. Your watchlist, holdings, and pending orders are all visible alongside your chart giving you the ability to track positions and modify open orders without losing context.
Analyse with more precision
Turn on Trade Plus and every security detail page loads with advanced charts — no extra clicks, no switching views. For traders who rely on technical analysis, the tools you actually need are front and centre from the moment you start trading.
- Granular timeframes. Standard Wealthsimple charts start at one-day intervals — fine for checking on a long-term hold, but not enough when you're timing an entry or watching a stock react to news. Trade Plus opens up sub-day timeframes down to 1-minute intervals, so you can track intraday price action at the level of detail your strategy actually requires.
- Technical indicators. A chart without indicators is just a price history. Trade Plus gives you a full suite — moving averages, VWAP, MACD, RSI, and more — layered directly onto your charts. Spot momentum shifts, confirm trend direction, identify overbought or oversold conditions, and time your entries with more conviction. They're built into the charting experience, not buried in a settings menu.
- Candlestick charts. Line charts show you where a stock closed. Candlesticks show you the full story — open, close, high, and low for every interval. Spot patterns like dojis, engulfing candles, and hammers as they form. Paired with sub-day timeframes and technical indicators, candlesticks give you the detail you need to decide when to get in and when to step aside.
Trade directly from the chart
Most platforms make you leave your chart to place a trade. You analyse a setup, navigate to a separate order ticket, re-enter the price, and hope nothing moved while you were clicking around. It breaks your focus at the exact moment you need it most.
- Analyse and execute, without leaving the chart. Place buys and sells and define take-profit targets by interacting directly with the chart. See a price level you like? Click it. Want to set a take-profit at a resistance level you've identified? Place it right there. Your analysis and your execution happen in the same view.
- Execution that moves with you. A floating order panel lets you place and manage trades directly from your chart — position it wherever you want so it never blocks your view. See something change? Adjust your order right there, without navigating away or losing context. Your chart stays front and centre, and execution is always within reach.
Manage everything on one screen
Active traders rarely have just one thing on the go. Trade Plus keeps your positions, watchlist, and options chain visible alongside your chart, so you can manage everything without losing your thread.
- Position management. Most platforms only show positions tied to the ticker you're viewing — everything else lives in separate tabs. Trade Plus puts all your open positions, pending orders, and order history in a single panel across your entire portfolio. See, modify, and manage everything without leaving your chart.
- Integrated watchlist. Monitor stocks on your radar alongside your current chart — no switching views, no separate tabs. Stay focused on the trade in front of you without losing sight of what else is moving.
- Options chain access. Most platforms make you leave your chart to find an options chain. Trade Plus brings strikes, expiries, and greeks into the same view — and lets you trade everything from covered calls and secured puts to vertical spreads, iron condors, butterflies, and naked calls and puts. All for $0 in commissions and $0 in contract fees — the only place in Canada where you can trade options without contract fees. And no, that's not a promotional rate.
How to turn on Trade Plus
Find the Trade Plus toggle in the web platform, switch it on, and you're in. (It’s really that easy). You can revert to the standard experience any time — but we'll let the charts speak for themselves. Just turn it on.
