Thanks all for watching, and I've tried to address some of your questions in the 4th video in this series (just recorded it). The third one will be up in about 20 mins.

      Hi, does etoro pays dividends on fractional shares? For example if I own 0.5 shares of coca cola. So I receive dividends? Thank you

    Hey mate, thanks for all the work you put into your videos, i realy appreciate it. I have a couple of questions.
    1) I was wondering if eToro charges a fee for paying out Dividends.
    2) Does eToro withhold taxes for its customers or do they have to declare it on their tax return themselves?
    3) If they do withhold taxes for their customers, what about if you are living in Europe? Do they withhold both the US taxes and the European taxes?
    Thanks

    • @SocialTrading
      @SocialTrading  4 года назад +1

      Hey there. a certain proportion of dividends on U.S companies is withheld by eToro to pay U.S taxes directly on those dividends. But as for taxes we all have to pay on etoro profits, I'd say ask a financial advisor / qualified accountant about that. I'd say it's the only safe way - no point messing about with taxes and getting into problems - I think I'd leave those answers to the pros really. As far as I know, we're all responsible for our own taxes - eToro doesn't take care of any of that.

    For non US resident purchasing US stocks, 30% of dividend is withheld as taxes, unless I get a treaty tax rate (15% for me) by submitting to eToro a w-8ben module. Now. if I try to purchase a stock on eToro, I'm warned of this and asked to submit a w-8ben. Now, let's assume I never purchased a stock, how are copy trades dividend taxed? I was never prompted to submit a w-8ben in this case. If I really own the stock for copy trading, should I assume I'm currently paying 30% taxes on US stocks dividends?

    • @SocialTrading
      @SocialTrading  4 года назад

      It depends on whether the dividend has come through a copied trade or a manual trade. As far as I'm aware, the copied ones will stay within the copy, but the manual ones will go to your available balance... I think that's right anyhow - it's been so long since i was investigating dividends that I might have got that the wrong way round... I'd check directly with eToro. I tried to make a video about where to see your dividends but it got so confusing, and there was no clear place where you can actually see a simple breakdown of all your dividends and where they came from. It's a bit of a missing feature, and I told them - they knew it would be helpful to add, but I think they had other priorities.
      If there's a big recession though 'value investing' might become more popular than 'growth investing' (speculating on the high-flyers in terms of price growth) so they might start looking into their dividend reporting features more.

    Thank you so much for all your guidance. These videos are extremely valuable for beginners. I have another question for you: what's your criteria when it comes to managing your gains copying portfolios. Do you withdraw money as you make it and diversity, or do you just trust the person you're copying so long as he or she is doing well?

    • @SocialTrading
      @SocialTrading  4 года назад +1

      I generally leave it with the person I'm copying so that they can make bigger trades in future and compound the profits, although I have , in the past, used some profits to copy other people. It always seems strange though - like I'm punishing the winner :)
      In the past, when i copied someone too risky and they were winning, i definitely kept withdrawing their profits and diversifying by putting it onto lower risk people to lower my risk.
      I've also withdrawn money from a copy just because I need the money at times. For now though, I'm just leaving profits with whoever's making them.

    • @SocialTrading
      @SocialTrading  5 лет назад +3

      Hi Nick - thanks - as far as I'm aware, leverage just changes the amount of units you're trading with on that asset, and the dividends are calculated per unit you have. So, dividends are still piad to you when you're using leverage as far as I'm aware. If in doubt, double check with eToro themselves, but I do believe that you do get dividends when trading with leverage, yes.

      Here's what I found in the help section:
      "When will I receive my dividend payment?
      The date on which you will receive your dividend payment depends on the type of asset you are holding:
      If you hold a CFD position, the dividend payment will be reflected in your available balance on the ex-dividend date.
      If you hold a position secured with the real asset, you will receive the dividend payment in your available balance on the payment date."

    If I just left the stock on my account didn’t touch it would I just receive the dividends automatically?

    • @SocialTrading
      @SocialTrading  3 года назад

      Hi there - If the dividend comes from someone you're copying, it gets ploughed back into the copy to be used by that trader in future trades...
      If it comes from a manual trade I believe it does go to your available balance, yes.
      I found this in their help section just now:
      "Your account may be either credited or debited if you are trading a stock, ETF or index that pays a dividend.
      If you hold a BUY position, you will receive the dividend payment to your available balance.
      If you hold a SELL position, the dividend payment will be deducted from your available balance."
      Re buying a stock in January and it paying dividends in March - yes, if the trade is open at the right date, you'll get the dividend payout as far as I'm aware. As long as the equity pays dividends, you'll get them if you're holding that equity at the correct ex-dividend date (although it depends if you're holding a CFD or the real asset)
      Again from eToro help section:
      "You must hold the position before the market opens on the ex-dividend date for the dividend payment to apply.
      If you hold a CFD position, the dividend payment will be reflected in your available balance on the ex-dividend date.
      If you hold a position secured with the real asset, you will receive the dividend payment to your available balance on the payment date."

      sometimes yes and sometimes no. it depends on the asset you're trading, whether you're buying or selling it, and whether you're using leverage..
      leveraged trades are all cfds
      sell trades are all cfds
      copied trades are all cfds
      'buy' positions in stocks without using leverage can be the real underlying asset.
      'buy' positions in cryptos without leveraged can be the real underlying asset.
      you can find out more on the fees pages I believe. you can check the status for etf trades, commodities etc.

    Hi, i was wondering whether etoro pays dividends on bond etfs?

    • @SocialTrading
      @SocialTrading  5 лет назад +1

      Here's the bit from their help section about dividends:
      Does eToro pay dividends?
      YES WE DO.
      Your account may be either credited or debited if you are trading a stock, ETF or index that pays a dividend.
      By holding the position before market close on the day before the ex-dividend day, the dividend payment will reflect in your available balance, when announced.
      Receiving a dividend payment is a taxable event in some cases and jurisdictions. The percentage of the dividend you will receive after the appropriate tax rate is applied is detailed below.
      Stocks and ETFs
      When a stock pays a dividend, its following morning opening price will be at a lower rate depending on the amount of the dividend.
      Should our liquidity provider charge or credit us for this gap, we will pass along this adjustment directly to the impacted positions with no markup or markdown.
      Companies incorporated in the USA:
      If you hold a buy position - you will be credited with 70% of the gross dividend
      If you hold a sell position - you will be debited with 100% of the gross dividend
      Companies incorporated in the UK:
      If you hold a buy position - you will be credited with 100% of the gross dividend, except for real estate trusts, where you will be credited with 80% of the gross dividend
      If you hold a sell position - you will be debited with 100% of the gross dividend
      Companies incorporated in Ireland:
      If you hold a buy position - you will be credited with 80% of the gross dividend
      If you hold a sell position - you will be debited with 100% of the gross dividend
      Companies incorporated in the rest of the world:
      If you hold a buy position - you will be credited with 85% of the gross dividend
      If you hold a sell position - you will be debited with 100% of the gross dividend
      Indices
      The price gap of individual stocks causes the index in which the stock is a component to open at a lower rate as well.
      Should our liquidity provider charge or credit us for this gap, we will pass along this adjustment directly to the impacted positions with no markup or markdown.
      If you hold a buy position - you will be credited with 75% of the gross dividend
      If you hold a sell position - you will be debited with 100% of the gross dividend

    • @SocialTrading

      You get paid dividend on the amount of units you own as far as I understand... So when you open a trade in any company, you're always buying a certain amount of 'units' of stock. $100 could get you 1 unit with company A, or 5 units of company B - it depends how much a unit of stock of each company is. Buying less than 1 unit will also get you dividends - they'll just do the maths and see what you're owed. (As far as I'm aware...)

It used to be 50,000 protection if you're with Etoro U.K, and 20,000 protection if you're with Etoro Europe (I think) Not sure why there was such a difference, but there was. I'm currently under Etoro Europe, but if i ever put lots of money in, I may try to switch to Etoro U.K by asking them...

      The reporting on where the dividends are coming from and how much you got is really not very good from what I can see. I actually asked eToro about this and seemed to suggest that they knew that it was a bit of a missing feature.
      If you go to your portfolio, and then click the history tab, on the right hand side of that page are some more menus. You can click the gear icon on the right and select 'account statement' then you select a time period you'd like to see a statement for.
      From there, at the bottom of the page, you can select 'financial summary' which does show some info about dividends received in that time period, but it's an overall view rather than itemised. There could be an itemised breakdown of dividends you've earned which I just haven't found yet...

      the etoro wallet is only for storing crypto currencies. the dividends will be on equity (stocks in private companies) or ETFs (unless they've changed that now) so they wouldn't be reported in your etoro wallet. they would show up in your portfolio, either as part of the fees and refunds tab if youre copying or in your available balance if it was via a manual trade. at least I believe that's where they're paid to. if you go to the help section and look up "account statement" it will show you how to get to your account statement via your portfolio where its possible to see your dividend payments. not easy to find at all, but its there.

      Hey there. This was a huuuuge question I kept asking Etoro and in the end, they told me there's no way to actually see it listed as a 'dividend payment' anywhere. They said that if you're copy trading the dividend gets reinvested back into the copy for the person you're copying to use in future trades, and if you're manually trading it should show up in your available balance. But I think there really needs to be a place where you can just see all of your dividend payouts listed. It makes no sense not to be able to track them.

      Hi there, I noticed that you can see the paid dividends as rollover fees at your account statement. It will show under the details column on the ex-dividend date as payment caused by dividend. The dividends will be credited into your available balance. Also, under your each position, there is a total refund which is the accumulative dividends received from that position.

    • @yuchangzhen

      Counter check the dividend amount by checking the company dividend rate x no. of shares x 0.7 (if it is a US company) - that 0.7 or 70% can check at eToro support page where they listed all the dividends factor.

      Hi @Justin Selle,

      I'm also one of the popular investors on eToro who you can copy, and the biggest part of my portfolio (at least 80% of my portfolio) is invested in dividend-paying stocks. You can find me on eToro at www.etoro.com/people/arnosnydert.
      I invest for the long term and I also don't use any leverage on my positions, that way I can keep the risk relatively low and hold onto great quality dividend-paying companies for the long term. 20% of my portfolio is also invested in growth stocks which doesn't pay a dividend, but I always maintain a portfolio of at least 80% dividend-paying stocks.
      If you're interested in copying me, please feel free to do so. Also read through my portfolio bio and through all my posts on the "Feed"-tab of my eToro Profile to better understand my investment strategy, the suggested copy settings you should use and also to see how and why my investment strategy has evolved into lower risk long term investing of mostly dividend-paying stocks.
      Have a great day and happy copying!
      And to @Social Trading Vlog, I really enjoy your videos and you're doing a great job of making the eToro platform easier for all copiers to use. Keep up the good work!
