Investing News: Kapitall Offers Ability to Invest with TDAmeritrade

FinanceLegacy

One of my online acquaintances is Dave Neubert, who just informed me that the cool investing and portfolio tracking application he is involved with, Kapitall, just took it up a notch, allowing those interested to invest with TDAmeritrade.

Kapitall is a portfolio tracker set up with interesting graphics. You can keep track of what is going on with your account, as well as perform research and learn about how investing works. It's an educational site for investors. Most of these types of portfolio trackers, though, just track your portfolio. You can't actually execute trades from them.

Kapitall aims to change that. Through a partnership with TDAmeritrade, it is possible to use Kapitall to actually engage in trading. You can import your portfolio to TDAmeritrade, or open an entirely new brokerage account, all via Kapitall. It's an interesting step forward in the world of investing and portfolio tracking.

Hey, FCC: I'm not being paid to mention Kapitall or TDAmeritrade. I have a portfolio tracking account at Kapitall, but I am not trading through the site. Also, I do not invest with TDAmeritrade.
