Since TradeZero Canada offers US market access and clears through a US clearing firm, TradeZero is subject to Reg NMS. 

This basically states that firms are obligated to provide investors with executions at the best possible price. 

Effective May 28, 2024, the standard settlement cycle was shortened from T+2 (trade date plus two business days) to T+1 (trade date plus one business day). This change was part of an industry-wide initiative to enhance efficiency and reduce the risk in the securities settlement process.


Under the new “T+1” settlement cycle, all applicable securities transactions from US financial institutions now settle in one business day of their transaction date.

As a result of this adjustment, trades executed on or after May 28, 2024, now settle on the next business day. For example, if you sell shares of ABC stock on Monday, the transaction will settle on Tuesday.

Fed Call / Reg T (Initial purchase or short):


Payment period for Fed Call is now reduced by one day to T+3.

Payment period is now reduced by one day to T+1.


Purchases and Sales now settle on the next business day. Cash received from closing a position is available on the next business day.
