Who trades ONLY from their Smartphone? (Successfully...)

Why would someone go on "vacation" just to continue working ?

Sounds like an addiction to me.

Trading is so easy and effortless sometimes that it doesnt bug me to log in a couple times an hour for a min or two and put in orders. Plus the feeling you get when you make more than youve spent in the entire vacation is a pretty good one.

I remember last year i spent a week in the caymans island, made 4 grand barely "working" like maybe 20 mins a day total, the vacation cost me half of that. Plus sometimes putting in orders and not giving a shit/not paying attention on what happens results in fat profits lol. I love doing that when im on vacation. Mind you i dont take huge risks when im not at my desk.

Its a lifestyle brah. Love the lifestyle.

I trade of TradeInterceptor on my phone 5.5", I mainly trade off my Ipad Air 4G, but phones fine to, also got a 8" Yoga tablet aswell.

I day trade, it's not the tech holding me back as I've had great runs using both, even traded by the pool and beach on holiday, being nice and calm sure helps.

Problem is that many traders make it sound way more complicated than buy low, sell high. Days I make good money is when I'm relaxed, take a very small risk, and make a decent profit. Rinse, repeat.

Its 2016, technology has come a long way...

Does anyone mostly trade from their phone? How successful have you been doing this?

It seems like it may actually be doable - although perhaps not for day trading.

of course it's very doable especially if you are swing trading. i still always prefer to do all my longer term 'overview' work at large screens. the weapon of choice these days seems to be a macbook air and a iphone + model when away from large monitors. GL

Maybe its me but I've been seeing more ET members write like this lately.

Now it can be done as such while on "vacation". You all must be single because not many spouses and kids would tolerate such for too long.

It's easy for those who've studied the markets for years, put in mental grease, lost a ton of money (tuition) and figured out what works for them and they stay consistent. Just like any other business.

I trade my NADEX account solely using their app, my account is up 40+% this year. I have other accounts at other brokerages which I trade on PCs and servers, but I prefer using the NADEX app over their web interface.
