FXCM has gone Mobile

Posted on 11. Mar, 2010 by Jakob in Preview, Random Noise

Some time ago I opened an account with FXCM for several different reasons. So far I have been rather pleased with them. Spreads are good, the platform is intuitive, execution is fast (except around news releases), etc. Furthermore, they are supported by a numerous of different online sources, and they offer free VPS hosting when you open an account with them. Today they have added another service; mobile trading. FXCM is supported by iPhone, Blackberry and Windows Mobile Pocket PC. All the features from FXCM trading station are available, and it is free for all demo and live clients (except Micro live account clients who will be charged $0.10 per lot traded through the mobile platform).

• Access and monitor streaming prices
• Trade and place market/entry orders
• View account balances
• Check your positions and modify positions on the go
• Access DailyFX news and charts
• Trade your demo account or your live account
• Set up price alerts

For those who cannot sit in front of the screen all day long, this might be a great way to keep track of the market. I will add it to my iPhone later today, and see how it works.
