How to buy stocks in the Philippine Stock Exchange?

Buy or purchase stocks of a company who participates in the PSE (see the PSE company listing). You will be assisted by a broker or a brokerage firm for your trading. You can buy stocks in person or thru phone call or just buy one in a click via an accredited online broker. You can go to the PSE or just open an account online to buy and sell stocks via an online broker. See the List of Accredited Online Brokers in the Philippines here or the Best Stock Brokers in the Philippines.

How much money you will need to buy stocks?

This is self explanatory but for the newbies and starters, some online brokers offer easy investment and trading options for as low as P5000. That is very cool I must say because it is not too risky for beginners. You will start to learn to invest, buy and sell stocks without losing or gaining so much.

You can trade higher amounts and higher stocks anyway as you learn the ways. Knowledge and strategy are powerful to successful trading. I suggest you learn the basics of trading and investing by reading our Millionaire posts. The site has many useful tutorials and training for everyone especially starters.

How to sell stocks in the Philippine Stock Market?

Again the easiest way is through an online broker company since funds and proceeds are transacted directly to the bank account associated with your online account. You can withdraw or fund your account anytime. They also allow deposit of stock certificates, transfer of stock-holding to another stockbroker and portfolio monitoring.

How to earn money by trading in the stock market in the Philippines?

Just like any trading, you gain money when you sold at a higher price than when you bought. You just have to know when to buy, what to buy and when to sell and what to sell.

  4. Simple Strategies that works for me

    1. Do PCA method and a bit of SAM method
    2. During market dips, you should buy more
    3. If you gained 3% and above then sell and look for other stocks that are in dip but do some research with that stock. it should be bluechips

  7. Hello Ms. Fehl,

    I am an OFW with an average monthly income. I want to open an ITF account in COL Financial for my 3 kids (ages 15, 8 and 6). I want to invest P5,000 alternately for each of them. Will COL agree that my kids have an investment account and their parents don’t? As of this time, I can’t afford to open an account for me and my wife but in the near future, I hope I can have our own account too. Cheers!

    • Yes COL accept ITF accounts. Just submit the requirements so you can create accounts for your kids. If your kids reached the legal age, you can convert their account to regular investor. Yes I think it’s ok even if you don’t have an investment account. It’s a free will 🙂

  8. HI! Are there any requirements if you want to invest on the stock market? I mean, if you’re going to do it as a walk-in client, do I have to bring some documents with me?

  9. Hi. I’m 16 years old and currently a freshman college student. I’m in to investing and business but my parents are the opposite. I want to invest in the stock market but they don’t want to invest. If I get their consent, can I start investing? What I mean is will I be able to independently manage my account? Which stock broker can you suggest?

  10. hi.. being a mother of 3 kids (2 studying & 1 on the way) and living a middle class lifestyle, investing is not that easy. as i was looking for ideas how to invest, your article is the most sensible one i have read…a low funding investment (just dont get greedy)…and the minute i finished reading it i was decided! this is it! got 2 questions for now, 1 could my first buying of stock be made on line or should it be personally? 2 were there specified banks where i must have account for these transactions? that`s all for now..thank you very much for this article.. GOD bless us all.

    • Hi. Thank you 🙂 If you choose an online broker, yes trading is done online. It’s more accessible and easier. We’re in the computer age now so I recommend online trading. Check though if the Online Broker is accredited by PSE. We have the complete accredited list here in Philpad. 🙂 My answer for number 2 question: No worries, almost every online broker are partnered with major banks here like BDO, Metrobank and BPI. I will be posting more about buying and selling stocks here soon. I’m currently migrating my website so it may be next week. Cheers!

  11. Hi Fehl,

    Your post were really awesome. I just heard it from my cousin that stock market is a good way for investments and since last week I’ve been researching until I found your articles. I’ll probably will be able to gain at least the basics with the help of your articles. Hope to read more of your very informative work.

    Just one question, for an OFW like me would it be advisable/safe to open an investment through online?

    • It’s a pleasure to share useful articles here. I love my readers and I’m happy to help and share knowledge and experience. An OFW can open a broker account. Just make sure your broker is accredited by the PSE. We have the list of accredited online broker here in case you wanna see them. I advise you open an account when you got here in the Philippines so you can sign and fund your account easily.

  12. What are the capital gains tax CGTon the profit do you have any or is it just the 10% of the sell and buy?

  13. I was planing to buy stock now as early as 22 years old I hope to invest my money as early as possible. I’m trying the co financial. Hope it works

    • Col Financial (Citiseconline) is one of the best online broker in the Philippines. Good luck and happy trading and investing! 🙂

  14. i got an investment in bpi asset management..i started at 20k 2 years ago. and investing like a thousand whenever i have extra money. now it grows up to 35k already. i just wish i had a hundred thousand or more.. ang ganda talaga ng performance ng stock market now a days. para mas malaki ang return. kesa po naka deposit lang sa bank ang pera natin.. try investing in stock market. God bless

    • Yes I know what you feel. I always check the NAVPU (Net Asset Value per Unit) of the UITF Equity Fund I just joined recently and I am always amazed what if I invested 100,000 earlier last year pa. I could have earned so much hehehe Anyway, just keep them there and focus on the long term strategy. God bless you too! I always love your comments here 🙂

      • Eto ba yung mutual fund?

        Im planning to invest. And i dont know whether on trading or on mutual funds. Pahingi naman ako opinion nyo oh. Thanks in advance. Btw, Ms. Fehl is awesome 🙂

        • This post is about investing stocks directly in the stock market. A Mutual Fund is another investment wheel. We have another post for that here. Please see the related articles above so you can read about Mutual Funds 🙂 Thank you for the kind works. God bless!

  15. I’m interested to get into stocks. Can I get into stocks despite being a student? What’s the minimum money needed to get into stock trading (is that the right term?). And where do I go to get into the whole stock buy and sell in the Phil Stock Exchange market?

    • If you are 18 and above, you can open an account and start investing. COL Financial EIP (Easy Investment Program) is for students and starters. I recommend it to everyone. It’s so easy to open an account online. For EIP the minimum money to start is just P5000. It’s the lowest I’ve seen so far from all the online brokers out there. COL Financial has been one of the best online trading broker in the country. Read and learn more about their company here https://www.colfinancial.com If you need to know about investing and trading as a starter, everything is there. Tell us and come back here about your experience ok? 🙂 Congrats in advance for starting your wealth so early! Cheers!

      • Thanks so much! I’ve been wanting to start early and learn while the country’s stock market is doing good.

      • And yes, I will share my experience when things turn out good for me with my stock market investment plans! You are surely paying it forward Ms. Fehl sharing your knowledge to everyone! God speed 🙂

        • Hi, JD! I am a marketing management student at some random college here in Tarlac. I just wanna ask how’s is it going on your stock market investment plans?

    • Yes it’s a very practical way to profit and break even at the start. I think every trader and investor has a target line that reminds them when to buy and to sell. Thank you for sharing your insights 🙂 The Philippine stock market is getting more interesting and exciting today. I hope I get to hear more insights here from readers, investors and starters. Have a great day!
