Best Forex Trading Apps in the USA: the 6 CFTC-Registered Dealers With a Mobile App

I recommend OANDA if you want one app that does what the browser platform does. Its US site says the OANDA Mobile app on Android and iOS has the same functionality as its browser-based platform and gives you its full range of forex pairs. I would send you here if you want to enter, modify, and close orders from mobile charts and watch major news like CPI numbers from the app's home screen.

OANDA Corporation, NFA ID 0325821, is registered with the CFTC as a Futures Commission Merchant, effective March 14, 2003, and as a Retail Foreign Exchange Dealer, effective October 5, 2010 (NFA BASIC, read September 23, 2026).

The minimum deposit is US$0, stated for bank wire transfer, and you can fund an account by debit card (Mastercard, Visa, Discover), wire transfer, or ACH bank transfer. A demo is available, with a "Demo" toggle to switch from live trading to a simulated environment (its US site, read the same day).

Its US site says eligible clients can spot trade cryptocurrencies through the mobile app via its partnership with Paxos, and the platforms page lists two apps: OANDA Mobile for Forex and OANDA Paxos Mobile for Cryptos (its US site, read the same day).

I recommend tastyfx if you want an app that sits alongside several platform choices. Its US site says the tastyfx mobile app is available on iOS and Android, and that its platform is available on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices. In my view it suits you if you trade from your phone but also want TradingView, ProRealTime, MetaTrader 4, and MetaTrader 5 as platform options.

tastyfx LLC, NFA ID 0509630, is registered with the CFTC as a Retail Foreign Exchange Dealer, effective October 15, 2018, and as an Introducing Broker, effective December 10, 2024 (NFA BASIC, read September 23, 2026).

Its global score is its parent group's global score applied to tastyfx, from our global broker test. The minimum deposit is US$0 on the Standard and Zero+ accounts, and you can fund by debit card, wire transfer, or ACH bank transfer (its US site, read the same day).

Its US site says positions in the same currency pair, and same size, need to be closed on a first-in, first-out basis, and its help pages explain how the mobile app handles it (its US site, read the same day).

I recommend FOREX.com for a reader who is starting out and wants the broker's own app rather than MetaTrader: its US site steers newcomers to its mobile app and web trading platform. The site says its powerful mobile app delivers a complete trading experience right at your fingertips. In my opinion, if you are new to trading, I would send you here for that app.

GAIN Capital Group LLC, NFA ID 0339826, is registered with the CFTC as a Futures Commission Merchant, effective July 29, 2004, and as a Retail Foreign Exchange Dealer, effective October 7, 2010 (NFA BASIC, read September 23, 2026).

If you trade on the MetaTrader platforms, its US site says all positions must be closed first in, first out, regardless of position quantity, and its MMR table states a 2% margin requirement on EUR/USD (its US site, read the same day).

Its US site says that to access your statements in the app, you switch to the Account window at the bottom and find "Statements" under My Trading History (its US site, read the same day).

I recommend Interactive Brokers if you want one app alongside a full desktop platform. Its US site says IBKR Mobile is a powerful mobile app for iOS and Android that lets you trade on the go. I would send you here if you want spot forex, futures, and options from one entity and prefer to manage positions from your phone.

Interactive Brokers LLC, NFA ID 0258600, is registered with the CFTC as a Futures Commission Merchant, effective December 2, 1994 (NFA BASIC, read September 23, 2026).

Its US site publishes no EUR/USD spread figure, stating only that spreads run as narrow as 1/10 pip without naming a pair, so the commission line is the cost figure for you to read (its US site, read the same day).

Its US site says its margin page covers how to monitor margin on both Trader Workstation and IBKR Mobile, so you can keep an eye on margin from your phone (its US site, read the same day).

I recommend Trading.com if you want one straightforward app on your phone. Its US site presents the Trading.com App as an all-in-one way to trade, with WebTrader and MT5 alongside it. In my view it suits you if you are starting out and would rather keep one simple app than learn a desktop suite.

trading.com Markets Inc., NFA ID 0516820, is registered with the CFTC as a Retail Foreign Exchange Dealer, effective April 20, 2020, and as a Futures Commission Merchant, effective June 4, 2026 (NFA BASIC, read September 23, 2026).

On the T1 account, its US site advertises an average spread of 1.2 pips on EUR/USD, with no commission, which is the cost figure you compare (its US site, read the same day). On our global test panel of 36 brokers, not a US test, market orders ran at 138 ms, ranked 15th of 36, and limit orders at 114 ms, ranked 14th of 36.

Its US site says Trading.com MT5 works on mobile devices and can be downloaded from the Google Play and App stores (its US site, read the same day).

I recommend Charles Schwab if you want forex and futures from the same entity. Charles Schwab Futures and Forex LLC provides futures and futures options, and forex at Schwab is traded only on thinkorswim. Its US site describes thinkorswim mobile as a one-stop trading app that packs many features of thinkorswim desktop into the palm of your hand, and I would point you here for that.

Charles Schwab Futures and Forex LLC, NFA ID 0477394, is registered with the CFTC as a Futures Commission Merchant, effective October 3, 2014 (NFA BASIC, read September 23, 2026).

Its US site publishes no EUR/USD spread figure; EUR/USD appears only in the pair list and a margin example. Its education article gives general margin ranges it does not attribute to Schwab, and states Schwab's close-out levels: all forex positions close automatically if account equity falls to 100% or less of the required margin level as of 3 a.m. CT, or to 25% or less at any time (its US site, read the same day).

Its US site says thinkorswim mobile requires a wireless signal or mobile connection, and that paperMoney, the virtual trading experience with US$100,000 of virtual buying power, is one of the many features within thinkorswim (its US site, read the same day).
