Mobile trading is the process of trading securities via a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet. Mobile trading has revolutionised the trading industry, by providing smartphone users with the opportunity to trade outside the confines of traditional trading methods.

While there is always an element of risk when using the internet, we've made our web and mobile platforms as safe as possible, including adding two-factor authentication (2FA) into our mobile app. We endeavour to adopt the latest technology and practices to maintain the security of your data and your account. This includes the protection of your data and ensuring secure access to your accounts and the trading platform.

Mobile trading allows you to trade CFDs on your chosen instruments with the same ease as from a desktop. With a mobile device you can trade on the go, enabling you to stay on top of the latest price action and react to breaking market news.

There's no cost when opening a live trading account with us. You can also view prices and use tools such as charts, Reuters news or Morningstar quantitative equity reports, free of charge. However, you'll need to deposit funds in your account to place a trade.

As a CMC client, your money is held separately from CMC Markets’ own money and is held on trust in segregated bank accounts with a Canadian bank. This account is opened and maintained in the name of CMC Markets Canada Inc. We do not use client money to hedge our positions or to meet the trading obligations of other customers. This offers you financial security and you can rest assured that your money with us is protected.

Our income primarily comes from our spreads, while other fees, such as overnight holding costs, make a minor contribution to our overall revenue.
