I am starting a new job in the next few weeks. It is an office job so I will try and trade at work (if Im tucked away in a corner and no1 can see) but if not I will need a good mobile phone for trading.

At present I trade sniper using the mt4 platform for graphs and signals and the Oanda platform for actually placing trades. If I cant find a phone that can run multiple programs such as mt4 and Oanda at the same time then I can open a mt4 trading account so I only need the one program open.

Anyone know of or use a mobile phone for trading capable of running mt4 platform with multiple graphs?
 
North Finance have a MT4 iphone app which has basic charts and order entry etc. I only use it to monitor prices though.
 
Great, I'm going to subscribe and then post details of all the boiler room scams who contact me as a result of giving you my details.
 
How's about stopping trying to be a legend in your lunch time and concentrating on doing the best for your employer...just a thought...you could get sacked and make fook all trading...then where will you be?..:)
 
This is theoretically speaking Swan. Who said anything about being a legened in my lunch time? Surely my lunch time would be my own time anyway??
 
being a legend in your lunchtime means bragging to your colleagues about the latest market ups and downs you're going through.

I can't see it being a very stressful job though if you're that relaxed about starting there that you're already planning on monitoring the markets thro the day - don't think I'd like to be your employer if you're actually going to try that, but you're probably exaggerating, right? Just the lunchtime & coffee break check would probably work OK unless you picked a demon job.
 
This thread has gone off track a bit.

I never said I would be monitoring the markets all day. At present I trade sniper, I dont know how many of you are familiar with sniper but it can be setup to send you email alerts when potential trades are happening so then all you need to do is have a look to see if the indicators are correct to enter and if so, you enter. That takes all of 2 minutes.
 
Hey, we're just looking after your best interests! ;)

Won't the trade opportunity be gone by the time you get the email, have time to read it, go onto the trading site and check it out? What time frame do you use?
 
To answer the ops question... I don't know of any phone that will run MT4 but alot of companies have created iphone apps to trade from and I assume that most smartphones will also be supported. Surely the best bet is to check different companies' sites to see which phones they support and then make your decision?

Alternatively, ditch sniper and trade the daily TF when you get home!

Trading at work will only get you in trouble with the boss and\or blow your account through lack of concentration. And yes, I'm talking from experience.
