Mate, I don’t deny that. But I work hard for my money and there’s no way in hell Im agreeing to pay literally 0.5% off the profit of every single of one of my trades. That’s highway robbery. 
  
 I don’t care what billionaire is getting away with what, I simply don’t want to bear that cost.

### REPLY:
Not 0.5% off the profit (that's just capital gains tax), it's a 0.5% tax off every transaction as I understand it. So if you trade commission free you'll still need to go up a (little over one) percent to break even with this tax.

### END.
