eToro has enhanced its social trading platform with the addition of ‘Live Trades’, highlighting the assets being traded in real-time by the platform’s popular investors.

Key Takeaways

  • Live Trades provides useful intelligence for aspiring traders while increasing the visibility of the platform’s most prominent investors.
  • To view ‘Live Trades’ click ‘Discover’ in the web platform and scroll down past ‘CopyTrader’.
  • The new feature is available to all traders, except those based in the United States.

Live Trades is not a recommendation to buy a particular security, but it does provide a window into the trading decisions of well-known investors in eToro’s ‘Popular Investors’ program.

At a glance, you can view the instrument traded, for example USD/CAD, when it was traded, for example 1 hour ago, alongside insights into the number of followers the trader has.

By clicking on the three dots in the trader’s box, you can also navigate to the individual’s profile or view/trade the asset in question.

Announcing the feature, eToro commented: “It’s a unique offering that sets eToro apart, providing you with a social edge in your investment decision”.
