ZSUN, October 5th, ZiaSun Launches SwiftradeUSA...
SOLANA BEACH, CA - October 5, 1999: ZiaSun Technologies Inc (OTC BB: ZSUN) (www.ziasun.com), a leading Internet holding company, today announced a major expansion of its Swiftrade (www.swiftrade.com) on-line stock trading portal.
Already well-known for presenting US markets to overseas investors, Swiftrade will now also be open to US traders.
With today's announcement, the Swiftrade portal now provides both foreign and American investors access to trade on all major US stock exchanges through a domestic broker-dealer.
ZiaSun said this is part of an overall growth strategy to establish Swiftrade as the first Internet portal allowing investors worldwide to access their brokerage accounts on major stock exchanges in Asia, Europe and North America.
The SwiftradeUSA (www.swiftradeusa.com) platform provides investors 24/7 access to quotes, account information, and buy/sell orders (execution during local market hours). For $19 per transaction, the service enables users to place market orders, short sell and limit orders of equities, options, and American Depository Receipts (ADRs) on all major US stock exchanges, including the NYSE, AMEX, NASDAQ, and OTC Bulletin Board.
SwiftradeUSA will provide on-line market access to US investors for West America Securities Corporation, a registered California broker/dealer. West America Securities is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC).
Commenting on further international expansion activities, ZiaSun said on-line trading systems for both the Hong Kong and London markets, operating for local brokerage firms, were in advanced stages of beta testing.
