Fractional Shares Trading Made Easier

Across all platforms, Schwab has also expanded fractional trading capabilities to include most U.S. stocks and ETFs, with a new minimum investment of $1. Now, instead of accessing fractional shares trading via a separate experience, clients can select a dollar amount rather than number of shares right within Schwab's trade ticket.

"Fractional shares trading lowers barriers to entry and gives clients greater simplicity and flexibility," Kostulias added. "They can be a powerful tool for a wide range of investors, from those who may be priced out of higher-cost stocks to more seasoned traders who prefer to trade notionally, in dollar amounts rather than whole shares."

You should carefully consider whether trading in virtual currency derivatives is appropriate for you in light of your experience, objectives, financial resources, and other relevant circumstances.

Please note that virtual currency is a digital representation of value that functions as a medium of exchange, a unit of account, or a store of value, but it does not have legal tender status. Virtual currencies are sometimes exchanged for U.S. dollars or other currencies around the world, but they are not currently backed nor supported by any government or central bank. Their value is completely derived by market forces of supply and demand, and they are more volatile than traditional fiat currencies. Profits and losses related to this volatility are amplified in margined futures contracts.
