South African online trading platform, GT247.com, has launched a custom-designed mobile app that the company says enables users to access their accounts and make trades while on the move.

Dubbed ‘MobiTrader’, the application for Apple iOS offers full trading, position and order management across multiple asset classes from a single consolidated trading application.

“In the world of online trading, it is vital for traders to be able to monitor how their trades are doing and to react instantly,” says James Saulez, chief information officer and head of online trading at GT247.com, in a press statement.

Saulez added the Android version for smartphones, in addition to a separate version for Android tablet devices and iPads went live on 21 November.
