Stocks and shares ISA?
I've been a regular cash ISA saver for years but I'm thinking of trying a stocks and shares ISA. Is there such a thing as a good time to open? I have an account at Trading 212 so may go with them.

Any time in the past is a good time. The next best time is now.

Well there is an old saying "Sell in May and go away, come back on St Leger's Day". But if you google it you will probably find articles telling you it doesn't hold true.

Depends on what you mean?
I can imagine Monday to be better than Friday, as it should be quicker if there was need for human contact.
Also a good time is when there's a welcome bonus offer etc.
Also depending on how much you're planning to add it may be better to open before 1st April so you can use the previous tax year?
