I'm looking switch from mutual funds to ETFs.
I currently invest semi-monthly in TDB 216, TDB 661 and TDB 964. I'd be looking to do equivalent low MER Index ETFs. It's essentially a couch potato style portfolio that I've used over the past few years. It would be nice if I was able to add/change the amount of my contributions without having to call my planner.

I don't know what margin trading is, so that's probably not the thing for me. Just looking for somewhere I have control and don't pay a lot of fees.
