We offer you greater control of your trading via our fully customised orders.

Our policy is designed to ensure client orders are executed promptly, efficiently, and with the best possible terms.

Read our order execution policy

We offer pre-market and after-hours trading access to the major US exchanges, including New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq, American Stock Exchange, and Bats BZX.

Most stocks listed on these exchanges are eligible for pre-market and after-hours trading; however, availability is determined by order volume.



You should also be aware that trading pre-market and after-hours comes with additional volatility and larger price movements for many securities, in part due to lower liquidity in the market.

ETFs offer a simple way to gain diversified exposure to a wide range of assets, sectors, or markets, all through a single investment. They tend to have lower costs and are relatively easy to trade. However, it's important to consider risks with any investing.

With a Saxo account, you can buy a diverse selection of ETFs, including some of the most popular like the S&P 500 or Vanguard S&P 500. You can also check which ETFs we offer before you open an account.

That depends on the account type you open.

For an individual account, these are the documents you’ll need to provide:

  1. Your national ID number from the country where you hold citizenship.
  2. Your tax ID number from your country of residence.
  3. A document as proof of identity (e.g., a passport, ID card, driver’s licence) and a selfie.
  4. A document as proof of residence (one that shows your home address, such as a residence permit, utility bill, or bank statement).

Most sign-ups for individual accounts are approved digitally within a few minutes. However, since we cannot compromise on security checks, the process can sometimes take longer. If all documents you provided meet requirements, we’ll process your application within 2 working days.

If you provide clear copies of all required documents, corporate accounts will generally be approved in about 1 week.
