The free fxTrade mobile app brings robust desktop functionality to mobile devices, including customizable charts, price alerts, overlays and indicators.

OANDA’s free fxTrade mobile app is available for the iPhone, iPad and Android mobile devices.
OANDA, a global provider of innovative foreign exchange trading services, today announced a significant update to its OANDA fxTrade mobile applications for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices.
“There are no longer any compromises when it comes to mobile,” said OANDA CEO K Duker.
OANDA’s fxTrade mobile app allows users to quickly monitor forex market activity as well as manage positions, control risk, and monitor account status and profitability while on the go.
The free app’s intuitive design makes the most of native iPhone, iPad, and Android capabilities to provide features that traders need to stay on top of the fast-moving forex market.

OANDA’s fxTrade mobile app comes with rich features and customisability.
Today’s release is the result of more than 18 months of work from the OANDA mobile development team, and incorporates user feedback from OANDA customers globally.
“With this new version of our trading app, we’re providing our customers with what they want: a robust platform at their fingertips and a great trading experience, no matter where they are,” Duker added.
Mobile devices already account for 30 percent of logins and 15 percent of trades for OANDA clients, a number that has risen rapidly since the company introduced its first mobile trading app in 2010.
The OANDA mobile apps for iPhone and iPad users are available for download in the App Store, or on the Google Play apps store for Android-based smartphones and tablets.
These apps complement the OANDA MetaTrader 4 mobile applications that are available for iPhone and Android smartphones and tablets.
Key features of this new version of OANDA’s fxTrade mobile app include:

Borneo Motors has launched a locally-developed iPad application – iTrust – in partnership with SingTel. The app helps staff provide Toyota customers a more personalised vehicle servicing experience with enhanced interactivity.

Customers will be able to view videos of comparative testing, such as the video of a Toyota Genuine Brake Pads alongside that of a counterfeit part.
The new app embodies 40 years of expertise and experience from Borneo Motors.
The effective knowledge transfer redefines customer experience, empowering them to make more informed decisions.
As most customers are not inclined to understand the technicalities of their Toyota’s servicing requirements, iTrust will enable the salesforce to explain the intricate details with clarity of visual and audio aids.

Some insights from the Norton Cybercrime Report 2012 based on a survey conducted in July last year. (* All percentages are based on % of Singaporeans)

Top mobile Internet activities of Singaporeans.
The report found that Singaporeans love to access the Internet on their mobile devices and they feel very safe doing so.
This could result in complacency where a notable percentage choose not to use mobile security – an alarming statistic, given how addicted they are to their mobile devices.

How safe do Singaporeans feel?
Need for their mobile devices *
- 84% use their mobiles phones to connect to the Internet.
- 55% consider themselves addicted to their mobile devices.
- If they could choose two items to save from a fire, 49% would save their mobile device.
