Trade Forex with a Free Mobile Trading App for New Traders

LONDON, March 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Trading forex with City Index allows traders at all levels to gain full and secure access to their forex trading account direct from their mobile phone.

Commonly known as 'foreign exchange', 'forex' or simply 'FX'; trading forex is the act of exchanging one currency for another, at an agreed price.

As the world's most traded over-the-counter (OCO) market, it has an average turnover in excess of US$4 trillion per day.

A key factor to its popularity is the ability to trade 24-hours a day; from Sunday evening through to Friday night.

Following the clock, the foreign exchange market opens on Monday morning in Wellington, New Zealand, progressing to Asia - where it is spearheaded out of Tokyo and Singapore - before moving to London and closing on Friday evening in New York. 

Mobile Trading App

City Index's City Trading FX™ app, allows forex traders choosing to trade with a City Index forex account, to trade directly and securely from their mobile phone whenever they want, from wherever they are.
