Mobile CFD Trading from City Index

LONDON, August 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

Mobile CFD trading has proved popular with those looking to add additional flexibility to their trading. City Index (http://www.cityindex.co.uk/) launched its first CFD trading app for the iPhone™ in October 2009, and now more than 15% of City Index trades are placed via mobile.

Some see mobile trading as an unnecessary alternative to placing stop losses and limit orders from online trading platforms. However, if after leaving your computer the markets change dramatically, mobile trading allows you to react in a way that orders placed online cannot.

That said, there are additional risks to consider when mobile trading. Joshua Raymond, Chief Market Strategist at City Index states. "The disadvantage [of mobile trading] could be that the more you look at prices moving, the higher is the potential for you to make impulse trades without proper research and analysis." To counter this you should always employ risk management measures such as stop losses and meticulous market analysis to protect your capital.

Ultimately, you may not use mobile trading every day or even every week, but the additional flexibility it provides could make the difference to your CFD trading one day.
