Online broker dealer TradeKing today continued to innovate in the realm of social media to help its clients become more investment-savvy.
TradeKing is expanding on its Trade Notes microblogging capabilities by automatically "Tweeting" on the TradeKing Twitter account about actual equities trades clients have made available via Trade Notes. Additionally, TradeKing is enabling clients to choose to connect their Twitter account and share Trade Notes with others. The Twitter Trade Notes functionality will enable clients to continue learning from their peers about their rationale for why they've made particular trades and record the thinking behind their own investments.
"Unlike some other stock Tweeting functionality, where the veracity of trades can't be confirmed, Twitter Trade Notes only showcases clients' actual trades that have been verified by TradeKing," said Don Montanaro, Chairman and CEO of TradeKing. "This functionality underscores our commitment to providing innovative educational tools and resources to help clients expand their trading knowledge by learning from their peers' trading successes and miscues, and the strategies behind those trades."
The Twitter Trade Notes functionality is available to clients immediately.
