Newbie question about cash CFD instruments and VIX


AMNS

Question

Hello,

Apologies for the simplistic question - I'm new at this. The minimum contract size in futures are a bit large for me so I want to focus on smaller cash instruments.

I was wondering if someone could explain:

1. How cash instruments trade throughout the day but exchange trading hours are much shorter. E.g Nasdaq 100 (US Tech 100) pre-hours and after-hours still mean there's no trading between 8pm-4am US Eastern Time. Does this instrument's (US Tech 100 cash) price match with the NDX e.g are closing prices the same? 

2. A question about the Volatility Index (VIX). How is this tradeable as a cash instrument when as far as I know its only traded as a future? Again, does this instruments trading price match with the VIX traded on CBOE?

Many thanks

AMNS

    • Dear @JamSea, Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we appreciate your feedback on the TradingView integration. We’re aware of the issue with the Volume and VWAP indicators, and our development team is actively working on resolving it. However, we don’t have an ETA at the moment. We understand how important these features are, and we’ll keep you updated as soon as we have more information. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Regards, AshishIG
    • Hi all. Has anyone had errors or issues with the new TradingView integration. My issue is that I cannot use Volume and VWAP indicators. It appears that anything requiring volume data does not work, and only shows error against the indicator. IG Trading - can you advise when volume data shall be available on the TradingView platform. Thank you.
    • Staying stuck in gloomy bearish seasons has never been the right approach in the market, so when the market isn’t so favourable I tend to always explore various events to stay profitable. Events don’t get more fun and rewarding at same time than spinning events, so when I saw 100% Spin hot coins events on Bitget with Apple sets and other rewards up for grabs, I just had to quickly jump on it. Participation is pretty simple too, one just has to register, make a net deposit using deposit methods to get spins, trade copy or futures trading for more spins, then spin for the rewards. One exciting thing about the event is its extended duration, lasting from August 28 to September 25, giving participants ample time to spin and get incentivized. A fun and rewarding event if you ask me, only be sure to follow the rules to stay eligible.
