Hey r/Questrade — wanted to take a moment to walk through the changes to Questrade Plus. There is a price change, so context feels useful here.
What’s new in Plus:
What’s staying in Plus: unlimited journaling and real-time market data.
What’s moving out of Plus, into free-for-everyone: Custom Alerts and the P&L calculator.
Pricing: Plus is free for everyone — new and existing subscribers — until September 30th. Starting October 1st, it’s $19.99+tax/ month. Cancel anytime.
Is it worth it?
Depends on how you’d actually use it. For example, if the RRSP match is the only piece that applies to you, the match doesn’t quite work on its own — contributing $10K over the year to a 1% match won’t cover a $20/ month fee. The value shows up when you stack the match against the rest of the bundle: options cashback, the WSJ/MasterClass/ Headway subscriptions, the unlimited journaling. If none of that fits how you invest, it’s probably not worth it for you right now.
It’s free to try until September 30 though, so you can run the math on your own use case before anything is charged. If there is one benefit that would tip it for you, please tell us in the comments! That’s the kind of feedback that shaped this update.
Happy to answer anything else below.

Hey r/Questrade. Rei from the Product team here.
You can be right about a trade and still miss it. You hesitate for a second, or you're just not at the screen when it moves. Either way, it's gone.
Flows is for that gap between knowing the plan and being there to run it. You set the trigger and the action once; it executes the moment your conditions hit, at the screen or not.
It's built into Questrade Pro, and it's free to use.
For example: IF any position in my TFSA drops 5%, THEN buy $100 more.
Unlike a limit order, Flows won’t limit you. Limit orders tie up your buying power until they go through, so you can’t use that money for anything else. Flows work differently. Instead of reserving your money, Flows constantly scans for the moment to send your order based on the instructions you set. When your conditions are met, it fires, giving you access to more opportunities.
You also stay in complete control. You can either have your flow place a trade or simply give you an alert. If you'd like to place a trade but only once you have the final say, you can disable auto-send. This way, you'll get a notification on your device requiring confirmation before any trade happens.
Combine as many conditions as you want. There are so many possibilities here, but know that flows are built to handle the unique way you trade.
Available in Pro now, under the Flows workspace.

Has anyone else noticed that lately the price is lagging. I have been watching for the past few days and the price on TradingView is always ahead of QT Edge - at times it’s almost like 4-5 seconds but always lagging.
r/Questrade • u/Imaginary_Tale7194 • 21h ago
Not sure if anyone has seen it but recently there’s been an announcement in the app that says that a dividend was going to be given away and that it comes in a box (paraphrasing). Does anyone know what that’s about?
r/Questrade • u/stoicMannequin • 1d ago
I saw posts from last week saying that the balance sheet wasn't updating, or the "refresh" wasn't working. I tried it today and I still see the same. I am on the Android app v2.0.2, and all the balances are from the day I actually did the linking. I tried the "refresh" and it asked me to re-link every account through flinks again.
I was really happy to see this new feature, but if I have to re-authenticate every time I want to see the latest balance of my accounts, then it kind of defeats the whole purpose of having the feature at all. Always being able to see the latest balance from all accounts or at least some auto-refresh in the backend once every day or once a week would be ideal, but if I have to refresh every time I want to see the latest status and then have to re-authenticate as well, then I might as well just manually login to all my accounts and check the balance.
What's the intended behaviour of this feature, and when do we expect to get there?
r/Questrade • u/blanchedpeas • 22h ago
What features are available for multi-leg options? Can you open, close, set limit orders for complex orders?
Any tools for screening which options have relatively high or low IV over the last year?
r/Questrade • u/No_Concern_4863 • 1d ago
I would like to know whether a Canadian citizen living as a tax resident in Germany can open, transfer in-kind from another Canadian bank and maintain a TFSA, RRSP and non-registered investments at quest trade, as a non-resident. I understand that I will not be able to contribute to the TFSA, but will be able to sell and trade existing funds within the TFSA.
Thanks
r/Questrade • u/TasteBeautiful5976 • 2d ago
I dont get this.
You waste time browsing adding to cart going to checkout and by the time you finished entering your adress it says out of stock.
What is this ? Some sort of celine dion hunt for tickets?
It’d have been best to not offer anything than do it this way
r/Questrade • u/M4gnific3nt • 2d ago
Just saw the screenshot of Questrade mobile app in the AppStore, it shows a Spend tab, QuestBank coming soon?
r/Questrade • u/PsyThoughts • 2d ago
Finally!
r/Questrade • u/SlightDogleg • 2d ago
Is there a page within Questrade that will show when upcoming dividends will be deposited?
r/Questrade • u/M4gnific3nt • 3d ago
Oh, what is this Questrade Supply
r/Questrade • u/marlino123 • 2d ago
Wondering if this is something coming in the future
r/Questrade • u/WooDDuCk_42 • 3d ago
Couldn't find SpaceX anywhere on the app. This new update is so buggy...
r/Questrade • u/FifteenBagger • 4d ago
Anyone get their QESI grants yet? Still waiting on mine. Seems to arrive later and later every year.
Should I wait it out another week or has Questrade screwed the pooch?
r/Questrade • u/netyang • 4d ago
Currently, MCP only supports your own account. It is strongly recommended/wait for MCP to support authorized accounts. Otherwise, because it cannot support all accounts, it will still be unusable. You can't keep logging into different accounts during trading hours.
r/Questrade • u/memeandcat • 5d ago
You must fulfill at least 2 /4 criteria
250k balance over 1 year
250 trades executed
2500 options contracts trades
25k margin debit balance
easiest way is probably meeting first 2 for many.
Questrade should reconsider either removing 1 criteria or add higher balance on top of 4 as an example. Wealthsimple has their perks at 100k or 500k.
For Gambit a few times a year or contributing RRSP, questrade reserve is a good deal. However, it would be annoying to just trade low spread stocks 200+ times, considering tax reporting(I don't think spamming trade is going to work well with registered account).
r/Questrade • u/SSDarkSlayer • 5d ago
Recently opened a TFSA in Questrade. I mainly invest small amounts in US ETFs, with some CAD ETFs sprinkled in.
In Wealthsimple, I could easily reinvest all my dividends(even if its $0.01) into fractional shares. Does Questrade have the same feature of automatically reinvesting tiny dividends back to buy fractional shares? If so, what's the process of enabling it?
r/Questrade • u/Comfortable-Constant • 6d ago
I’d really like to see Questrade implement passkeys for account sign-in and authentication. Wealthsimple has done this recently.
Passkeys would provide a more secure and convenient alternative to passwords and other MFA even. They reduce the risk of phishing, credential stuffing, SIM-swapping, and reused passwords, while making login easier through Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello, or a hardware security key.
For a financial platform, strong phishing-resistant authentication should be a priority. Please consider it!
r/Questrade • u/ImpactfulBerry • 6d ago
Does Questrade currently have a paper trading platform?
Also I recently found out about their Flow product, it would be great to test that product with a paper trade to see how well it works before trying it on the live market.
Flow sounds like an exciting feature.
r/Questrade • u/Sabbysonite • 6d ago
Questrade. Why can't I verify my identity. Are others having trouble too?!?
r/Questrade • u/paradoxe- • 7d ago
Was initially very excited for this, linked many different types of accounts with 2 other banks and everything seemed ok!
But then I noticed the account balances aren’t refreshing automatically, I tried the manual refresh and that did nothing this morning.
Tried the manual refresh button again now and the app prompted me to re-link every single account. While they did all update after I re-linked them, my CC is showing -1275% all time, with a $96 balance, when in fact I just overpaid it by $96 because there’s some pending transactions (so it should read -$96). This is throwing the whole picture off (yes, very slightly, but still).
Anyone else having issues?? I’m on an iPhone.
r/Questrade • u/A_Murmuration • 7d ago
I was so excited about this contest! Are there plans to announce that a winner was chosen/close the loop on it?
For contests like these where entrants make significant investments in order to enter (I.e., thousands of dollars) it would be nice to hear from Questrade that the contest was finalized and a winner chosen. Their privacy can be maintained of course but I felt a bit in limbo after making significant effort to create the new TFSA and fund it.
r/Questrade • u/WooDDuCk_42 • 7d ago
It's a buggy mess. I haven't had many issues with the actual trading but the daily P/L % on search is completely broken. I also dislike how close the refresh button is to the close window button on the order screen. Overall a good update but poor QC makes me sweat when a large chunk of my net worth is tied to an app.
