Linking Etrade

kinfo etrade

E*Trade is one of the most popular choices among active traders. Their coverage is outstanding and their trading platform is constantly embraced by professional traders.

Kinfo works great with E*Trade! The integration enables end-users on the E*Trade platform to track their trading performance in a meaningful way using both the mobile app and web version of kinfo.

Linking guide

Kinfo integrates directly with E*Trade using the official API. This is a secure method for allowing kinfo access to trade data without sharing your credentials.

When you start the linking process you will open up a separate browser window with a form provided by E*Trade. Once the authentication process is completed, kinfo will obtain a token to access your trade history.
