What users are saying

1. In this app "BUY" IS SELECTED BY DEFAULT for option orders!!! I have used other trading apps, and they make the buy/sell as the button you have to click to enter an order.

2. Other issues include the inability to trade stock or options or see news, reviews, etc.

3. I'll make sure I suggest to everybody that I know that's looking to get into trading to stay away from this platform.Absolutely awesome and amazing definitely has replaced other apps in my repertoire as the central.

4. There are significantly better options for app based trading.1) The tickers are arranged by alphabetical order and you can't sort them the way you want to.

5. Requested a check instead it got rejected because I have a banking profile on my account that doesn't work! Called multiple times emailed multiple times and its just a run around.

6. Currently, it keeps saying I have no internet, but I am at home with a full strength WiFi and all my other apps recognize the signal.

7. That could have been done without making a mess i have to scroll throughVery easy to mistype an option order.

8. I often have to go to other sites to find out why the market is down.So far, the trading is fast, but that is if the app opens.

9. Other than that it is a good trading app especially if you are a long term investor.TERRIBLE APP.

10. i do not like the fact they don't allow me to set the asking price i want, which is very lame at best and regretfully reminds me of a Robinhood-like attitude.

11. Indicators news highs lows charts everything's here, options, short or long bull or bear.
