Overview

Install on Android in Short.

Installing a trading mobile app for operations in the Forex and exchange markets should not need a manual, and on Android it does not. Download TM9 from the Play Store on your smartphone or tablet, open it, sign in, connect your broker, and you are looking at live prices. The whole sequence usually takes less time than making a coffee.

The steps in order: open Google Play, search for TM9, tap Install, wait for the download, then open the app. Sign in with your account details and link the broker account you trade through — that connection is what turns the app from a price viewer into a trading terminal, because orders you place are sent straight to that broker, who holds your funds.

Two prompts appear during first use and both are worth accepting. Notifications, because alerts are the main reason a phone app earns its place between sessions; a declined prompt silently removes price, volatility and news alerts until you re-enable it in system settings. And biometric sign-in on devices that support it, which keeps opening the app quick enough that you actually check positions rather than putting it off.

Then spend five minutes on setup. Build a watchlist of the instruments you follow, open a chart, add the studies you use and save the layout. That work is not device-specific: it syncs to the Web Terminal and the desktop terminal automatically, so it only ever has to be done once, and it is waiting on any new device you sign in to later.

If you want to see everything the app can do before starting, the TM9 home page covers it in full.

The Sequence, Screen by Screen.

Step-by-step: install the TM9 Android app from the Play Store and get to your first chart.

The steps

  1. Open Google Play on your Android device.
  2. Search for TM9 and open the listing.
  3. Tap Install and wait for the download.
  4. Open the app and sign in.
  5. Connect your broker account.

Set it up once

Build a watchlist, open a chart and save a layout. That work carries over to the Web Terminal and the desktop terminal automatically.

Turn on alerts

Allow notifications when the app asks, otherwise price, volatility and news alerts have nowhere to land.

Mid-install

Where Installs Usually Stall.

Three notes on the points where an install stops going to plan.

In practice

The step people skip is notifications. Alerts are the main reason a phone app is useful between sessions, and a declined permission prompt quietly removes that benefit until you re-enable it in system settings.

Worth knowing

You need a broker account to place live orders. Without one you can still install the app, sign in and look around, which is a reasonable way to see whether the platform suits you.

Who it is for

This page is for anyone installing TM9 on Android for the first time, and for brokers writing onboarding instructions for their clients.

Context

Where the Steps End.

This page stops at your first chart. What comes after it is trading.

Set it up once, properly

The install itself takes a couple of minutes; the part worth doing carefully is what follows — connecting the broker account, setting the chart layout you will actually use, and turning on alerts before you need them. Doing that once on the first run saves repeating it every time you open the app.

Good to know

TM9 is a software development company and does not provide investment or brokerage services. The platform supplies the trading terminals, analysis tools and automation; your broker holds the funds, sets spreads and leverage, and executes the orders the platform sends. Trading carries a real risk of loss, and signals or robots are tools rather than financial advice.
