### 3/5 — Nothing Special

*2023-10-10*

In CQG is nothing special, so its a Classic Chart Software without Economy Data analysis, Cumulative Delta or Economy Calendar. But its enough to win or lose your Money!

Use this App please only in combination with other trading Tools like trading-econmics.com or only for watching your position.

### 3/5 — Need instant buy and sell button useless app for scalpers

*2023-09-07*

Need instant buy and sell button, not taking it to another page. This is useless for scalpers.

### 4/5 — Great usability on the go

*2023-05-21*

Thanks for the development. This app is fine for „on the go“ trading and watching running positions. Clean, smooth and fast execution and usability. No overhead on indicators or tools - just plain as trading should be. TPO would be a great feature for the next release - thanks in advance 🥰

### 4/5 — Good app. New feature request 😀

*2022-07-16*

Good app. Simple. Can you ‘add’ a feature to “Hide/unhide” in the settings for the OTE+P/L $ value? Few other platforms give that option that is really helpful. Thank you so much

### 2/5 — Good platform bad UI design

*2021-12-21*

It takes several seconds to load positions and orders. In daytrading, this deficiency alone kills all

### 3/5 — Not very good

*2019-11-21*

Not bad, but thinkorswim mobile is so much better

### 4/5 — Good app, but..

*2019-10-24*

... it would be a lot better, if you added a simple feature: the option for disabling screen’s auto-lock. Sometimes, you’re monitoring an instrument, and it’s plain annoying to have to keep touching the screen phone time after time.

Of course, you can disable screen lock completely for your phone... but then, you would have to reenabke it after finishing with CQG app. It would be nice if CQG app requested IOS not to lock the screen, like other apps do .

Thanks,

### 2/5 — iPad display is completely crooked & messed up.

*2019-01-31*

Definitely not compatible w/ iPad Pro. Not useable. Please remove the mis information of compatibility w/ iPad. No problem w/ iPhone.

### 1/5 — Poor support and service

*2026-02-01*

Continuous latency issues and execution trade execution is off by a few hundred dollars on a one lot so be very careful. They are hurting and skimming off the top…

### 1/5 — Junk

*2025-05-27*

Most futures platforms 20 years behind , terrible support also lazy employees never answer emails

### 1/5 — Junk

*2024-10-28*

If you like high school written software, maybe it’s for you, but this is 20 years behind. Do not use it.

### 1/5 — Error on MacOS

*2023-06-08*

For some reason, the developers think it's necessary to check if a phone is jailbroken... why would that be their business? 

But regardless, I'm on MacOS (M1) so I can install universal apps, like this one. Unfortunately I simply can't get past this dumb error message: "This device appears to be jailbroken. For security reasons, login procedure is blocked."

### 1/5 — CAN’T PLACE OCO ORDERS

*2020-10-13*

For scalpers, this is not the best app to use. I like to move my Stop around the graph according to market movement, and this app won’t allow you to do that. When you place an order, it takes you to a different tab where you have to put down number of ticks for target and for loss then confirm, by then the market already moved. If they were to fix these issues, I would give 5 stars, but for now is more than enough.

### 1/5 — Login HELL

*2020-09-02*

Day traders beware ! Plan on typing your password a couple hundreds times a day. Oh and the biometrics finger scan never works either 🤬

### 1/5 — UNUSABLE AVOID CQG

*2019-11-21*

For a mobile trading app this may be the worst one there. They use a tiny font that is difficult to see what price it is and has traded at making it almost unusable. It’s supposed to be a mobile app that you can readily see on your iPhone. Customer service is weak and despite the obvious and glaring flaw they are oblivious to fixing it. Very disappointing and one star is a fair rating.

### 1/5 — This app lacks important features for trading

*2019-10-19*

You are unable to have the chart and dome on the same page which makes this app worthless for futures traders.

They charge $.25 cents per contract each way and yet the app isn’t any good for futures traders.

Did I mention that this app is worthless for futures traders? I’m very unhappy with this app.

### 1/5 — I can’t find the options chain

*2019-10-06*

I couldn’t find any way to see the options chain. Checked the FAQs on their website.... none

### 1/5 — Chart settings get constantly erased

*2018-12-27*

Hi but I am very sorry to say that this app has been very bad , I have been sending emails to them and they don’t respond except for once but the issue has not been fixed

**Developer response:** Thanks for posting feedback and contacting us. Sorry you were having trouble with the app. We've since released a new version of the app that solves the problem you were having. Please update to version 1.5.2 and let us know if you're still having the same issues.

### 5/5 — Ultra fiable

*2021-03-10*

Plateforme réactive, précise avec tout ce qu’il faut!
Facile d’utilisation!
Beau travail de CQG!

### 5/5 — Volume bars Green and red

*2020-10-14*

hello can you put the same color as the green and red candles on the volume bars on CQG MOBILE it would be really cool to make this change on the mobile application thank you very much

### 5/5 — Best mobile platform yet!

*2020-09-20*

Only thing I’m not liking and it may be possible, I just haven’t found it if it is, but it’d be nice if when I hit the bid/ask that it would instantly place the order without the confirmation window popping up. Being a scalper I like to be in and out as fast as possible. Is there a way to get past that? Thanks!

Also can you give an option to auto attach a stop loss and be able to drag and drop on the chart?

### 5/5 — latest update not great on iPad Pro

*2020-05-20*

iPad version is working now. So 5 stars! Love how clean and easy to use the app is. Great for mobile futures trading.

### 5/5 — Online trading platform

*2020-05-03*

Best online trading platform I have ever used. Period.

### 5/5 — Great little app

*2020-02-06*

Find it very useful and fast! Only draw back is the inability to modify a trade on the chart.. otherwise it’s bloody awesome !

Another challenge is when multiple accounts are used and we log into CQG mobile it logs you out of all the desktop pc’s .. so no one else can trade the account - even though they are sub accounts with their own Logins.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2019-09-30*

I called this a game changer when first introduced. Makes the 3 am check so much easier. Thank you for considering further development, love that you’re always asking us how to improve the infrastructure.

A CQG fan.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-03-15*

Convenient app to use as a back up if power outage or platform issues occur on normal trading computer

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2018-04-20*

Beautiful interface and easy to use. Thank you for making this!

### 4/5 — Great app.

*2024-12-31*

Great app for a very experienced trader!   Needs some internal work in my opinion.  Putting the app in horizontal mode, you can’t lay the phone flat. It has to be “perfectly” up right to use horizontal mode. Buy and sell limit orders should have a setting to customize the order colors. Other than that, this is a great app. I use this more that TradingView.( Yes, I see the same charts as tradingview)
