Editor’s note: This article was first published in October 2013 as a review of the then-new Investing.com Android app; its description of the app’s features and design, and the claim that it was the most complete app available, reflect 2013 only.
I was pleasantly surprised by the new app from Investing.com, which Android users can now download. It is the most complete one so far, giving us real-time quotes for stocks on every market, currencies, commodities, ETFs, futures and more.
Users also get candlestick charts and some technical indicators, along with a consensus recommendation on a given stock or index. We should not base our investments on it alone, but it can certainly help.
I am told that they invested around 1 million euros in developing the app, and that it was built by a group of traders with traders’ needs in mind. For medium- and long-term investors, it is without doubt an ideal app for keeping track of our portfolio.
The app is free. You can download it from Google Play, and there is a short overview in this video (in English):
