🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A comparison tool for European brokers that filters by base currency support for international stock exchanges.
  2. A guide or browser extension that calculates the hidden costs of currency conversion on popular retail trading apps.
  3. A niche brokerage service specifically designed for European residents to hold and trade in multiple major currencies.

“Currently I am using Trade Republic for trading but here I only see the price of Swiss shares in Euros. I am concerned that the strong Swiss Franc will affect the investment. Is there a way to directly invest in CHF?”
