I read an article a while back stating around 300 000 South Africans directly invest into the JSE in some way (trading, investing, etc). Will see if I can find the article again.

My posts are my opinion and shouldn't be seen as investment advise from me or the view of the organisation I work for.

Do your own research before engaging in trades/investments  :)

Hi
 
I am looking for information about the number of people that have accounts at brokerages or on CFD platforms in South Africa. I have searched for research about the "state of the trading market in South Africa" with no luck. Surely someone must have done some research about this in the past. I would really appreciate it if someone can point me in the right direction. I would also like to know how the Single Stock Futures market compares with with the CFD market in terms of volume/popularity.
 
I am putting a business case together to launch a new service for traders.

A good place to start would be with the market makers that provide the trading instruments.
