tradeMONSTER Releases Powerful Mobile App


CHICAGO --(Business Wire)--

tradeMONSTER® announced today the release of tradeMONSTER Mobile, its markedly innovative and patent pending mobile trading app, the first and only proprietary mobile trading app built on HTML5. tradeMONSTER Mobile users benefit from having a mobile experience that now closely replicates its web-based trading platform rated "Best for Options Traders" three years running by Barron's.

"With the new tradeMONSTER Mobile, I seamlessly transition my trading from desktop to mobile without needing to reorient or sacrifice the use of our professional grade tools," said Pete Najarian, co-founder of tradeMONSTER and optionMONSTER. "As a result, it's easier for me to monitor and engage the market anytime I'm away from my office."

tradeMONSTER was the first to introduce a truly web-based, customizable trading platform with free streaming data. Here again, tradeMONSTER is the first in the industry to define user experience by offering customers a responsive, mobile design mirroring the ease of use its award winning web platform is known for.

"Using a new web technology, HTML5, to bring the functionality of our main, real-time trading platform to mobile, and at the same to create a user experience that exceeds the mobile experience of native mobile apps, is an achievement our company and our customers are extremely excited about," said Dirk Mueller, co-founder and CEO of optionMONSTER Holdings, Inc., owner of tradeMONSTER. Added Sanjib Sahoo, CTO of tradeMONSTER: "By solving several challenges associated with HTML5, our technology team has built a breakthrough product where others have fallen short."

As with its main trading platform, the completely new tradeMONSTER Mobile allows customers to trade simple and advanced orders and manage multiple accounts, all in real-time. It provides access to essential market information, with an elegant and intuitive navigation, and stock and option trading tools including:



  • A unique dashboard with user defined information
  • Streaming account balances with asset and symbol visualizations
  • Industry leading options chains
  • User defined, streaming watch lists
  • Advanced charts streaming tick for tick market data right on the user's device

    • Create complex option strategies on the fly with spreadMAKER
    • Save and send multiple orders, bulk cancels and streaming order updates and quotes
    • Trade stocks, options, and mutual funds

"Our new mobile platform provides clients with a remarkable convenience, and range of information and trading tools," said Jim Swartwout, President, tradeMONSTER. "We made these enhancements to give our clients what they asked for - more tools, capabilities and ease of use, anywhere, anytime."
