Instant Buying Power


What is Instant Buying Power?

Instant Buying Power gives you immediate access to funds deposited via ACH, enabling you to trade stocks and ETFs before your deposit fully settles. There are a couple points to consider:


  1. An ACH transfer from certain institutions may not qualify for Instant Buying Power due to higher reversal risks. To access Instant Buying Power, consider linking an alternative bank or depositing via wire transfer.
  2. Instant Buying Power is not credited until any open margin call requirements are met. The feature may also be unavailable for some highly volatile stocks or leveraged ETFs.
  3. Due to previous deposit reversals, you may not be eligible for instant buying power.

Are there fees associated with trading using Instant Buying Power?

Trading with Instant Buying Power incurs no fees or interest charges, though exchange fees or regulatory fees may apply. Refer to our fee schedule for details.
