It is getting ridiculous and I am serious considering taking my money somewhere else. Everyday on the US market opening times the system is lagging.

I don't think it's rigged, I think they have some technical issues

Can we get ASIC to look into it?

Hey, 

I can only apologise for that's happening. 

I'm not defending what's happening. We're working to get the login issue sorted (updates here: https://status.ig.com/). 

I can assure you though that these are technical issues. We wouldn't put or reputation on the line to try and steal money from traders. I know this doesn't make it any better. 

I'm waiting on updates to give. Massive apologies, I completely understand everyone's frustrations.

API is down and the status page shows as operational. Seriously guys this is ridiculous.

Just shutdown that useless status page, it is only getting people even angrier.

You'd think that they would have prepared well after the Wednesday's mess.

Alas, it's happening every day for 3 days in a row, and we get a boiler-plate response. Seriously?

I had to try and hedge some of my positions on FTX, it's more crypto based, but they are listing more and more stocks by the day, never have downtime and the web interface is super fast, unlike IG. https://ftx.us/#a=demo  ...To be honest, just looking at how much better my P&L is on there, it's made me realise that the slow IG interface actually stresses me and probably has a negative effect on my trades.

Guys,

I mainly do spread betting on IG. Any alternative platforms you'd recommend for spread betting?

I use CMC Markets as my second platform.  They offer much tighter spreads on smaller caps outside the FTSE100.  Their range of markets is smaller and their funding rates are slighter higher which are negatives.  And bizarrely they don't volume info if you use this.

It is rigged. The industry is trying to manage exposure to the Wall Street Bets phenomenon!

Why can I see and make trades on the demo accounts but then try to load the exact same UI for the live account and it's down? Can it really be a server issue if there is capacity on the demo account side. Surely shut that down during this unprecedented time. I'm sure no one is going to be too upset that their demo account is down for an hour or two!

Any update on this please? It's been about an hour now and I can't log in. This can't happen

are you suggesting all the retail platforms are down at the same time, I very much doubt that

honestly..how can IG not have back-up servers/systems for this kind of thing....their only job is to provide a working platform and they are failing..is it really impossible for a company as successful as IG to be unable to provide their most important function..it's like turning up at B&Q and the staff being unable to unlock the doors...baffling.

Screwed my log in again and the service provider (IG INDEX) don't care as they are serving the large organisations. Missed my trades again because of this. This is all illegal and i hope action is taken but for me its time to take my money out of here and move on to ethical platforms. About 15 of my colleagues are going to leave IG now too, it was ok that they had Algos etc running against us but this takes it to new limits. P.S all of our accounts are marked and get preferential treatment accordingly. FYI.

    • I've recently received a total allocation of 88,310 $TOMA tokens for the TGE. Tap-to-earn games have been popular on Telegram, offering a fun way to earn rewards. I've played games like Major and Dogs, but Tomarket has been exciting.   This innovative platform takes the tap-to-earn concept to the next level, offering a unique ecosystem where users can earn tokens through gaming activities and community participation. What drew me to Tomarket was its engaging features, such as the Tomato Drop game, contributing to its rapid growth of over 40 million users since its launch.   As Tomarket prepares for its pre-market listing on Bitget, users can buy TOMA tokens early at the best prices before the spot listing. I'm excited to see where this project goes, and I think it's definitely worth checking out, especially if you're a fan of tap-to-earn games like myself!
    • Unicorn Ultra Network (U2U Network) has revolutionized cryptocurrency with a breakthrough solution to blockchain scalability issues. Their innovative approach offers infinite scalability, enhancing the efficiency of blockchain applications. U2U’s technology positions it as a leader in the crypto space, driving the future of decentralized finance (DeFi) and seamless real-world blockchain integration. Solving Blockchain's Scalability Challenge: U2U Network Leads the Way Blockchain technology has long struggled with scalability, hindering its ability to handle high transaction volumes efficiently. Networks like Bitcoin and Ethereum process only 7 and 15-25 transactions per second (TPS), while traditional payment systems like Visa can handle thousands of TPS. This scalability bottleneck leads to slow transaction speeds and high fees, limiting blockchain's real-world adoption. U2U Network offers an innovative solution, addressing this issue with infinite scalability to improve blockchain performance and make decentralized applications more practical for global use, enhancing the future of crypto and blockchain technology. U2U Network introduces an exponential scalability solution with its U2U Chain and U2U Subnet. U2U Chain, a DAG-based, EVM-compatible chain, offers low latency, faster transaction finality, and enhanced security through aBFT consensus and DPoS. Built on U2U Chain, U2U Subnet leverages Universal Messages Verification (UMV) and OstracismVM for seamless connectivity and interoperability. This combination allows U2U Network to achieve up to 72,000 TPS at launch, with a peak of 500,000 TPS and just 650 ms transaction finality, making it a groundbreaking solution for blockchain scalability and real-world applications. How to claim U2U Network (U2U) Token on Coinpedia Launchpad? Follow these steps below to claim a U2U Network token through CP Launchpad: Register on Coinpedia Launchpad: Sign up or log in to your Coinpedia account. If you don’t have one, create an account on the Coinpedia Launchpad platform. Complete KYC (Know Your Customer): Most platforms, including Coinpedia, require you to complete KYC verification to participate in ICOs. Submit the required documents and wait for verification approval. Deposit Funds: Deposit the required funds into your Coinpedia account. Typically, this could be in the form of cryptocurrency (e.g., BTC, ETH) or stablecoins, depending on the token sale's guidelines. Check for U2U Token Sale Details: Once your account is ready, navigate to the U2U Network token sale page on the Coinpedia Launchpad. Review the sale details such as the token price, allocation, and start/end time of the ICO. Participate in the Token Sale: During the sale period, use the available funds in your Coinpedia account to purchase U2U tokens. Follow the on-screen instructions to participate. Claim Your Tokens: After the token sale ends and if you have successfully participated, you can claim your U2U tokens.

For more accurate details about U2U Network's upcoming and ongoing crypto ICOs, you can visit their Coinpedia Launchpad and search for U2U Network listings on various cryptocurrency platforms and social media channels for updates and participation instructions.    
    • The ADA price has slipped into the red zone, currently trading below the crucial $1.20 level despite a weekly gain of over 15%. While the Cardano coin shows no immediate signs of bullish momentum, analysts remain optimistic about its potential upside. Short-Term ADA Price Prediction On smaller time frames, the ADA coin faces a pullback scenario. Key support levels lie between $1.11 and $1.21, with further downside risks if the price of Cardano drops below $1.05. However, if ADA coin regains traction, it could target $1.42, $1.72, and even $2.36 during a euphoric rally. Bitcoin’s Role in Cardano’s Future With Bitcoin’s dominance rising, Cardano crypto has been moving sideways. If Bitcoin consolidates above $100K, altcoins like ADA may rally. Such a scenario could see the Cardano price soaring to $2, a 33% rise from the current levels. Whale Activity and Long-Term Cardano Prediction Crypto whales recently accumulated over 100 million ADA, pushing the Cardano ADA price higher. Market experts foresee ADA forming a textbook ascending triangle pattern, potentially driving the Cardano crypto price to $1.50. Long-term Cardano predictions remain bullish, with some analysts eyeing a parabolic rise to $10 by 2025. Also Read: Optimism Price Prediction 2024, 2025, 2030 Cardano Price Outlook The Cardano price prediction 2024 suggests significant upside potential if ADA maintains its current structure. Traders should watch for breakouts above $1.25 and $1.33 to confirm bullish momentum.
