Leading Singapore CFD Provider Launches Android AppSep 28, 2011 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- IG Markets, Singapore's number one CFD provider for customer service, unveiled its Android trading app on September 26, 2011. The app is available free of charge from the Android market and allows IG Markets' clients to place CFD trades on a wide range of markets, as well as view their open positions and watchlists, access real-time balance information, generate a variety of charts and much more. Prospective traders can also access live market data, as well as an account application process tailor-made for Android handsets. Peter McDermott, Managing Director of IG Markets in Singapore said "this latest release is another example of our trademark customer service alongside innovative technology. The Android app is an addition to our existing suite of mobile trading apps, which include iPhone, BlackBerry and Nokia apps." In June 2011, IG Markets was Singapore's first CFD provider to offer an iPhone App for DMA CFDs, which allows traders to view full market depth and liquidity as well as trade within the market spread. "Our Android app gives clients a range of mobile functions equivalent to our award-winning trading platform, PureDeal, and is available across our extensive range of CFD markets, including forex, shares, stock indices, commodities and more," Mr McDermott said. "It is our commitment to give our clients the best possible CFD trading tools, regardless of whether they trade from an iPhone, Android, BlackBerry or browser." Android devices are the fastest growing handsets in the smartphone group in Southeast Asia, marketed as the region's 'most affordable' smartphone option. In 2010, the sales of Android-based handsets in these markets rose from an average of USD500,000 a month in January to almost USD2 million a month in September, an increase of 400%.
