E*trade Mobile Pro now available for BlackBerry Bold
While the BlackBerry Bold is not yet listed as compatible on E*trade’s site, we can confirm that the app is finally ready to rock on the Bold. Woo! Bold owners who who hit etrade.com/mobile from their handsets will now be able to download version 1.1.3 of E*trade Mobile Pro, the stock information, trading and account management application issued by the popular online brokerage. We’ve been playing with it for a day or so now and we’ve got to say, it’s looking great on the high resolution Bold display. E*trade Mobile Pro allows E*trade customers to view and manage accounts, view real-time stock information, manage portfolios, execute stock and options trades using an E*trade brokerage account, check out relevant news, create watch lists and plenty more. To say it’s an awesome tool is a bit of an understatement really. The Bold version of the app is still a bit young so we’ve experienced a freeze or two but over all it works quite. If you’re an E*trade customer, definitely hit etrade.com/mobile and get your mobile trading on.
UPDATE: E*trade just dropped us a line to let us know that version 1.1.3 is not in fact the Bold-ready version, hense the glitches being reported. You might be able to download it and it’s working well enough for us but the full on Bold release is still to come. We’ll let you know as soon as it’s ready to rock.

Doitall76, Good call - investing after a huge dip is a horrible idea. Best to wait until the market recovers instead of making a killing by buying at a discount.

I installed it fine and couldn’t get it to connect so after much searching I found on the etrade website the instructions on how to correct it.. just search for etrade mobile problems on the website and select the first link that shows up and then click on troubleshoot common tech problems. Instructions should be right there. My problem now is I can’t get streaming quotes to work nor can I get the actual menu page to show up. I can do everything else. Any suggestions…
