It only displays the IG logo in the center of the screen but won't open the trading platform when I click on "open platform".

not sure what's happening there. The web based platform opened for me earlier this morning and again just now with no problems.

Hi I AGREE -  it does not open on new trading platform - but before selecting the IG open and look at old platform you can trade - looks like there is a problem there - as IG logo is not correct IMHO. 🙂 Tried calling tech support but no answer at present.

I have an open trade running and I can't open trading platform. The new platform won't launch. Old platform wants me to verify my information and takes me around nowhere. I tried to launch prorealtime but it won't launch either. I don't know what to do.

Mobile now working for me too. I also managed to launch prorealtime but it won't show my open trades. Mobile does. I wonder why the trading platform on website isn't working though.

Hi, still no problem for me, take a look at some problem solving ideas on this page (for new platform about half way down)

https://www.ig.com/uk/help-and-support/charts/ig-charts/why-are-my-ig-charts-not-working?ref=FlashPDLeverage

Thanks, it helped. Looks like I have a Chrome problem and not an IG one as the new platform worked just fine on firefox just now. It's the chrome that needs fixing, thanks a lot.

https://deal.ig.com/wtp/ still won't open for me. - FIX WITH MICROSOFT EDGE USE

I got to speak to helpdesk for 45 mins yesterday 

 and IT IS a chrome issue - they will fix it later but - as now using Microsoft Edge with FULL capacity - suggest to use this as has excellent reviews as a substitute for chrome - may well do myself.

Regards

David

what does 'full capacity' mean, someone told me there was an 'Edge Chromium' but when I looked on the MS web site it said I already had Edge but it didn't seem any faster to me playing around for a day?

It's got the same underlying engine as Chrome and yet strangely it doesn't perform as well for me as Chrome does.  Firefox is worst of all (possibly because it blocks all the cr@p that wants to track your every movement)

Hi briefly trying Edge out out and looked ok - but only to solve my immediate problem - have Edge on one screen and Chrome on the second and works fine - will have to look at the set up to fix of chrome going forward

I haven't had any problems using Chrome.

Hi,

 

It is something to do with my settings in Chrome causing the problem - will fix later - have a work around at present by using Microsoft Edge (new version from 2020 which IS superior to old one supposedly)

I had the same IG logo screen and problem too.

But works fine if I use Edge. 

I noticed the problem with Chrome came soon after I rejected a strong recommendation by Microsoft to adopt Edge as the default web browser. Maybe Microsoft has somehow interfered with the Chrome but I have no proof to back it up.

Same here on Wednesday 8th July. The problem is still unresolved. I tried clearing the cache - did not solve.

Hi @David30b @dmedin @Caseynotes,

We found that it was a problem for all users who have BitDefender installed, it creates extensions in certain browsers such as Chrome, Firefox and Safari which then blocks the New Web Trading Platform from loading up. The easiest way to get around it when using chrome is to type chrome://extensions/ in the URL field, then disable the BitDefender extensions. 

Our developers are working on a permanent solution as it may happen after every BitDefender update. 

Hope that helps.

Anton

    • Iron Ore Elliott Wave Analysis Function - Counter-trend Mode - Corrective for 2 Structure - Double Zigzag Position - Blue wave ‘b’ (circled) Direction - Blue wave ‘c’ (circled) Details - The metal has completed the circled wave b and is now up in wave c (circled) with an impulse that should break above the 122.9 high. Bullish confirmation happened above 109.3. The SGX TSI Iron Ore Index is a critical benchmark in the iron ore industry, widely used by traders, miners, and steelmakers for contract settlements and price risk management. The index reflects the true market price as it is based on actual transactions in the iron ore spot market.   The index peaked in May 2021, hitting an all-time high of around $233 per dry metric ton. This peak was driven by robust demand from China and supply constraints from major iron ore producers. Since this peak, the index has experienced a significant decline. By October 2022, it had dropped by over 68%, reaching $73. However, there was a notable recovery, with the index climbing to $143.5 by December 2023. Following this recovery, the index entered a negative phase, despite a resurgence that began in April 2024.   Analyzing the daily chart reveals that the price action from the all-time high in May 2021 can be viewed as a corrective bearish cycle forming a double zigzag structure in the primary degree, labeled as waves W-X-Y (circled). The primary degree wave W concluded at $73 in October 2022, and wave X ended at $143.5 in December 2023. The subsequent decline from December 2023's high of $143.5 is considered to be part of wave Y (circled), expected to form a zigzag or double zigzag structure.   Wave Y (circled) suggests that the decline from $143.5 is part of wave (A) of Y, potentially forming a 5-wave or 3-wave structure. The drop to $95.7 could be wave A or 1, with the current recovery representing wave B or 2. These counts are provisional until the price action confirms the correct one. The critical factor now is the recovery from $95.7, which is anticipated to be a 3-wave structure completing below $143.5. The H4 chart indicates that the first two waves, wave a and b (circled), have likely concluded at $122.9 and $102, respectively. Consequently, wave c (circled) on the H4 chart is expected to advance higher, completing wave 2 or B.   The H4 chart further details the progression of wave c (circled) and its anticipated path, provided the $102 level is not breached. An upward movement to $122.9 and beyond is projected to follow.   This analysis underscores the dynamic nature of the iron ore market and the importance of the SGX TSI Iron Ore Index in providing a reliable gauge for market participants.   Technical Analyst : Sanmi Adeagbo Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!
