Firstly sorry if this has come up before (i'm sure it has) however curiosity has got me googling....

I saw Trading212 come up in reference to Schmee's recent antics, and i've since seen many more of these app's (eTorro) or something like that is being pushed hard too...

Are there any app's worth looking at, I have no intention of pouring 1000's into this, just a little bit of fun to see how I go with some lower risk investments/trades.

Looking for minimum effort, i.e. one place where i can upload some funds and have a go?

Is that too good to be true or does anyone have any suggestions?

Cheers

Chris

Do some reading on the numerous trading threads on here but I wouldn't bother if I were you.

I am not an IFA but if you want to start saving then you should do proper research into the various different benefits of ISAs/SIPPs/trading accounts held by reputable FCA registered UK-based firms.
(I have happily used Hargreaves Lansdown, Fidelity and interactive investor.)

If you want to gamble and lose your money, by all means believe the obviously false suggestion that people with no experience, who do no work, have limited financial knowledge etc... can make winning trades on a regular basis using some "scheme".

In fact, if you do believe that, then this thread will help: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Thanks gents, fair assessment I guess, I'm merely curious and wandered if there was an opportunity to play with relatively small amounts of money

I work in the the tech sector so have a relatively keen interest in innovation etc and how it influences stocks etc
