TD Canada Trust has recently released an update to its mobile app that now allows clients to place trade orders from their smartphone. The TD Canada Mobile App previously provided features such as viewing bank and brokerage account balances, bill payment, Interac e-Transfer, fund transfer between TD accounts, stock quotes etc. TD Waterhouse has now added mobile trading to the feature list. The trading feature allows clients to place orders to buy or sell Canadian and US stocks and change or cancel orders. However, the TD Mobile app, which is available on the iPhone, Android and BlackBerry devices does not allow trading in mutual funds.

It appears that adequate security measures are in place to prevent unauthorized access if the mobile phone gets stolen or is lost. First, the app offers to store the access card number or connect id but the password is not stored. Second, the app does not allow adding a new payee for bill payment or adding a new recipient for email transfer. Third, TD Canada Trust extends its security guarantee that reimburses losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent transactions to mobile banking.

Though I tested out the TD Mobile App, I don’t think I will be using a smartphone to execute my stock trades. However, the app includes a couple of features that will come in quite handy in certain situations. For example, if you are visiting an unfamiliar place and would like to access the nearest bank machine, the app automatically detects your current location and displays the nearest TD Bank branches. Another example is an accident toolkit that will allow motorists to document the details of a collision they are involved in.

I’m told that RBC will also be bringing mobile trading to smartphones in the near future.
