Screenshot_20200623_174216.jpg.261038da4c338b0c40e32e365affcf38.jpgwhy is there a huge spike down on SHELL !! 

 

Did anyone else get this or is it just me!?  It's not on my other 3 share brokers accounts !!!

Thanks for your post. 

Sometimes we get quotes that cause spikes. If no one traded there we don't execute deals off that price. 

If it was a quote but no execution and it makes an anomaly spike our technical team will remove it on the platform shortly after it's happened. 

All the best

Ooooo! So it`s very unstable!

Bitcoin is an unstable cryptocurrency, and it`s hard to make predictions about how it will cost next month or next year... Bitcoin's price is so volatile because of speculation. While it's possible to buy physical goods with Bitcoin in some places, the large majority of Bitcoin transactions are still investment-based. ... This buy-sell cycle is what makes Bitcoin's price so volatile.
Indeed, retail traders tend to buy and sell based on emotion and market hype, which can lead to significant swings in bitcoin's price. Retail traders are small investors that buy and sell bitcoin for their personal accounts. You need an fbs broker, to clarify the situation.

What happen if that spike, not seen in any other broker, cost you a stop triggering? and making a loss?

Many other markets show such kind of spikes, what happen if that spike, not seen in any other broker, cost you a stop triggering? and making a loss?

If the spike is incorrect it will not trigger your stops/ limits.

If for any reason the spike does (which is extremely rare), IG would be able to see this and would reinstate the position. 

All the best

    • Summary: Still expecting another low for indices, the current move up part of a corrective rally. Normally I look for indices lead from stocks, however some stocks are displaying strength and some weakness so this mix bag is showing up in the Nasdaq 100 pattern as a probable wave four triangle at the current low.

    • A lot of transformation is happening to BNB at the moment with the integration of bitcoin lightning network and Optimism especially with opBNB birth but that has not reflected in users confidence primarily because of the many negativities surrounding the platforms operations in North America and Australia. BGB on the other is gaining traction and value because a lot of investment is going into the development of the ecosystem recently with the injection of $100M and also improved partnership deals
    • I know we still have a lot to do to attract massive crypto adoption but steps like those taken by Binance and bitget in the wake of what happened to FTX is commendable in righting the wrongs of the lapses and loopholes that exist pre-FTX saga. But more still needs to be done to restore confidence to the level it was pre-2020 bear market like consistent regulatory framework and regular security updates by crypto platforms
