FXTRADING.com app Review 2024

As more and more traders and investors use their smartphones for trading, it is increasingly important that brokers offer easy-to-use apps that can deliver the same services as desktop platforms.

In this article we'll check whether FXTRADING.com's mobile app ticks all the boxes.

Overall, we rate the user-friendliness of the app as better than average.

We're going to take a closer look at search functions, price alerts and order types, so all the little details that determine whether a trading app is user-friendly or downright cumbersome.

Let's start with the search functions. Although most brokers do OK in this area, there are some bad apples out there. For example, if you start typing 'Emerging markets', will the software find all the Emerging markets ETFs for you, even if their name doesn't start with 'emerging'? If you only ever traded US stocks and start typing 'Apple', will the AI show you the Apple stock or the obscure Irish stock Applegreen?

FXTRADING.com got the green light, meaning its search functions are reasonably good.

We hear horror stories almost every month about accounts being emptied out by hackers - the easiest thing you can do to prevent these attacks is to make your account secure by enabling 2-step authentication. That is, if your broker offers this service. We think it is a must. As FXTRADING.com doesn't have this functionality, you might want to consider having a look at another trading platform.

We didn't like that you can't use biometric authentication to log in to the app. Most brokers have this function (e.g. via fingerprints or FaceID) to save you from having to type in your password every time, making it a convenient feature.

You cannot set price alerts in the FXTRADING.com app. Yes, you can use a third-party app for this, but wouldn't it be much easier to have it in the broker's own app?
