The DeCarley Trading mobile app is the ultimate information and communication tool, with interactive chat and live commodity market content. As email becomes obsolete and SMS messaging is burdensome and expensive for overseas contacts, this futures market mobile app bridges the gap between the need for real-time communication and the obstacles traditional methods face. By letting users opt in or out of push notifications based on their interests, this communication app streamlines relevant content and creates a more efficient experience than other communication platforms (email, websites, etc.). EXCLUSIVE CONTENT: Users will have access to exclusive written content not available on the web (in-house newsletters and trading recommendations). CONVENIENT NEWS SOURCE: Additionally, app users will have access to several third-party sources of financial and commodity market news, commentary (both video and text), industry podcasts, and government-issued commodity research. INSTANT SUPPORT: App users can bypass email and contact us directly via built-in SMS or a well-trained AI chatbot to resolve technical support and customer service issues, ask market-related questions, and get updates. App users also have easy access to live streaming webinars and intraday live market snippet broadcasts from the app home page (including chart analysis, fundamental comments, etc.). ACCOUNT ACCESS: Within the app, DeCarley futures brokerage clients can access documents such as trading account statements, 1099s, personal trading stats, account balance summaries, cash activity history, and more. Users can conveniently submit requested documents (IDs, applications, tax forms, etc.) via a submission feature that lets them take a photo with the app camera and submit it for processing. Users can also schedule a personal trading platform demo with a DeCarley representative using a built-in form.
