An ost app would be great! i was thinking this should be done for years now! i have a very cool one for TD Ameritrade that works like a charm, hopefully this app will be launched soon!

Does anyone know if and when Standard Bank will offer access to trade on overseas markets like PSG. It would be a great offering to be able to diversify into a broader group of global equities, and have all in one share account.

As usual, exchange control is the problem. We're living in the dark ages in this respect.

Hope we get an android app for Easy Trader which I use every day. Obviously we will need something that is not dependent on SilverLight. Have a Galaxy tab that I use when I am in the countryside. When I leave the city for a few days I normally have to close out all my trades as I don't like setting a SL on trading.
