Spread Betting Made Easy With Award Winning Mobile Trading App
LONDON, March 16, 2012/PRNewswire/ --
Spread betting [http://www.cityindex.co.uk/spread-betting ] apps are ideal for
accessing the markets wherever you are and whenever you want. The mobile trading app from
City Index's 'City Trading(TM)', has won four awards since its launch in October 2009.
As recent as November 2011, the mobile trading app - available to City Index
[http://www.cityindex.co.uk ] accounts holders using iPhone(TM), Android and BlackBerry
devices - was voted by Shares Magazine's readers as 'the industry's best mobile trading
app'.
Growing Number of Mobile Traders
As the industry's first ever live trading app, its continuing success since 2009 could
be down to key developments in its mobile trading offering. The introduction of a powerful
live charting package sees traders gaining access to multiple technical indicators and
live streaming financial news, direct for the Dow Jones Newswires.
Since launching in 2009, the percentage of client trades being placed through their
mobile devices has increased from under 2% to 24% (City Index, November 2011).
This rise indicates a shift in trading styles away from over reliance upon generic PC
platforms to more innovative, accessible trading technologies; such as the online and
mobile trading app

award reinforces our commitment to innovative and easy-to-use mobile dealing technologies,
which our clients have really embraced over the last two years."
