Binary Options transactions on mobile soar

MarketsPulse reports that 30% of Binary trades in its system were on mobile apps in February, up four-fold from last year.

It seems as if Binary traders really like their mobile devices. Binary platform provider MarketsPulse has reported that in February more than 30% of Binary Options trades among its clients were completed via mobile apps — up about four-fold from just 7% last May.

Platform providers such as MarketsPulse have put a lot of effort into their mobile tools, touting them as a major differentiator when pursuing new brokerage clients. And now we see why — mobile is clearly not just the way of the future, but also of the present. If you don’t have a user-friendly mobile app suite, you’re losing business. It is that simple.

MarketsPulse also pointed out that mobile traders are more active — traders using mobile execute 15% more trade actions than through web. Furthermore, the average investment amount of mobile trades is 25% more than web trades.

MarketsPulse and rival SpotOption are duking it out for leadership of the Binary Options platform sector. MarketsPulse clients include AvaFX and HantecFX, while SpotOption has a somewhat more impressive client roster including Alpari, FXDD, Markets.com (TopOption), FXCC, IronFX, Pepperstone and Windsor Brokers, as well as the only two CySEC-regulated Binary brokers — Banc de Binary and OptionWeb. SpotOption itself is actually a CySEC regulated Binary broker, allowing it to hold client funds and act as a Binary market maker for its clients which prefer not to take on any market risk, but just act as white label / marketing operators.
