Ratings and reviews

Overall a good app, but I noticed that they don't make it possible to see the annualised performance of your portfolio (deliberately I think). If they did, I think a lot of people would notice that their portfolios are underperforming index funds. My portfolio (mostly index funds itself!) looks good on the surface, lots of green and high percentages for 'Total P/L', but once I calculated annual performance, well, chucking it in index funds with lower fees and forgetting about it would be better.

Constantly Cancelling Sell Orders. I've put in 4 sell orders in the past 7 days and all of them have been cancelled without reason or explanation. They've been the same sell value and quantity yet Stake cancels them. If you buy stock they don't really care but once you try to sell them at a profit that's enough of a reason for Stake to cancel your orders (?). I'd recommend another app so that you're not stuck having to pay for a fee to transfer your stocks to a different service provider.

very simple and easy app to use. Stake Black gives good information, but it would be better if it was free. basic company financials should be free and easily accessible through the app. a greater variety of stocks from different exchanges and OTC shares would make this App 5 stars.
