Spread Bet on the Go With the iPhone Trading App from City Index
LONDON, March 20, 2012/PRNewswire/ --
City Index spread betting account [http://www.cityindex.co.uk/spread-betting ] holders
can benefit from their award-winning City Trading(TM) iPhone(TM) app, which provides them
with the opportunity to trade wherever they are, whenever they want.
The City Trading app from City Index is available to spread betting and CFD trading
account holders across iPhone, Android and Blackberry devices.
Mobile Trading
In February 2011, it was reported that approximately 15 per cent of trades being
placed through City Index were done through the mobile trading platform
[http://www.cityindex.co.uk/trading-platform ].
Joshua Raymond, Chief Market Strategist at City Index, commented that mobile trading
is 'undoubtedly the future of spread betting'; a view which is reinforced by their
clients' heightened trading activity via their mobile devices.
Traders using the mobile trading platform can access the full range of spread bet
markets [http://www.cityindex.co.uk/spread-betting/spread-bet-markets.aspx ] and order
types available through its online trading platform.
Whilst the attraction of trading through a mobile platform focuses on the heightened
access to price movements; this, like the margin feature on which spread bettors trade, is
somewhat a double-edged sword.
Risk
In the same way that the low margin feature offered to traders choosing to spread bet
can act as a double-edged sword, so can the easy-access feature of the mobile trading
platform.
Considering your trading strategy [http://www.cityindex.co.uk/learn-to-trade ]; focus
is placed around how you trade, your expectations and your level of control. This strategy
must be applied whether trading through your standard platform, or via your mobile phone.
A risk that can come of mobile trading is the desire to trade on impulse. With
constant exposure to price movements, it can be tempting to place a trade without first
researching and analysing that market which could lead to potential losses.
iPhone Trading App
The City Trading app was an industry first when it launched in 2009; it offers City
Index [http://www.cityindex.co.uk/trading-platform/iphone-trading-platform.aspx ] spread
