2024-11-29 | Garrett Morgan | if you trade options or do any other kind of complex structuring, this is the only app that has a UI that works. other platforms either scale down the data to the point of loss of function, or they cram too much into a small space making navigation impossible. power etrade hits the mark. | |
2024-08-06 | Corey Day | I have used it for option trading. I really like the simplicity of the interface but the P/L chart is off by more than a power of 10x. For example: the underlying is $30, I buy 1 put contract for strike of $115 for $90 premium , i would expect the max profit to be ($115-$90)*100= $8500, if it goes to zero, not $85000. No point in a nice app If the math is wrong. | |
2024-06-03 | Shrikant | Feedback for mobile app. I did not have these issues in last few years but now facing below. Etrade team, kindly respond. Profit and the balance keeps fluctuating. E. g. If I sell the stock and earn $1500 profit it shows any amount like $4000 Profit or sonetimes negative. Day profit balance keeps fluctuating unrelastically as well. It shows any options price but doesn't get execute at that price. I am not talking about real fluctuations but technically faulty fluctuations | |
2024-03-19 | Rick Kirchhof | Upgrade to version 5.9 omits a very necessary step. Using Android on a Samsung with current level OS, the default web browser is not remembered, and you can not read the news. There is no setting in any part of the setup that allows you to change web browsers or use the system default web browser. This needs to be fixed. Tech support claims only solution is to uninstall / reinstall. Terrible customer experience. | |
2022-04-16 | S P | Market data lag upon every startup if this app is getting really annoying. If you open the app and move around too fast, you'll be forced to close the app and reopen in order to get the market data information to show. I can't believe how slow and long it takes to load the options/market data information. There are FREE brokerage apps that can do it faster. Please fix or else I'll be forced to move my portfolio to another brokerage | |
2022-03-11 | Catalin Radu | Please add a buy sell overlay right on the chart display like you had on the original etrade app. Very useful to be able to buy right on the chart screen for quick trades. Also would be great to add the option to instantly buy at the current price with just the click of a button on the chart screen. Also some different background colors would be nice. Like a dark gray. Also if I want to sell individual parts of a position I can't. I have to log in to the site to be able to expand my position | |
2021-06-24 | Wiley Traveler | This new app is terrible. Not user friendly at all. I can't see the watch list without logging in. Too many screens to navigate through to find what I'm looking for. No way to use the old version appears to have been by design so the new software can track everything you do with your device. Disappointed and unsatisfactory experience. May need to take my business elsewhere. | |
2021-06-03 | Thiago Rabelo | Garbage platform, extended hours start at 7am, I lost lot of money because of that. You can't save extended hours orders for the next day, the freaking order get canceled ending the day, that means you lose money as well, you can't keep your profit or losses on time after hours, most stup thing I ever see, doesn't make any sense you're able to open an order but the dashboard got stuck, and you can't follow your real gain or losses, unbelievable, completely trash... | |
2021-05-20 | CaseKraft | Overall its is a good app, some strange things occur when futures trade in overnight, ie Watch list lose some of the contracts you have saved. Its very frustrating to have to reload many of the key contracts in the morning. Whats strange, is it seems so random as to when it happens or what contracts are deleted, almost as if someone is doing it on purpose. | |
2021-05-07 | CJ Brumbaugh | It's a mobile app, not a complete desktop. I trade exclusively from Power etrade on my phone. I love it!!!! I trade stocks and options. You can enter complex trades. Easy charts to read and indicators. It rarely ever lags with verizon cell service. Customer service is wonderful. Amazingly easy to read and get around. I would like to be able to add custom indicators and be able to enter OCO orders. Other orders are great. I don't expect complex analysis on a mobile app..it's fast and functional. |
