POWER OF THE PUBLIC: The spread of smartphones has revolutionised trading for those who believe more in the wisdom of their peers than of fund managers who charge heavy fees.

LONDON: When Noa Strijbos picks a financial asset to trade on her smartphone while taking her dog for a walk, almost 26,000 people pay close attention. 

The 30-year-old Dutchwoman is among the top-ranked traders on eToro.com, one of several mobile apps and websites that allow budding investors to copy the most successful trades out there rather than come up with their own.
