What you have described is even WORSE!!

Allowing selling only on an equity is pure market manipulation!

What could possibly be the rationale for this — WHO has made this decision at IG? On what basis?

I am reporting you to ASIC.

I phoned IG today, if it's any consolation they're not lending your shares out for short selling either. The only people selling GME right now are short sellers, selling shares they're borrowing for the third time, IG put a stop to that lending, as I am sure a lot of brokers are doing, whether they have shares to sell to retail or not.

Another way of looking at it, GME had ~250% short interest last I looked, that means there is something like negative 100 million shares available to buy right now, if you or I were selling, those shares will go towards getting the available shares back to zero, so there still wouldn't be any available to buy.

I expect NYSE will halt trading on GME some times this week, maybe tonight. They have to, the short sellers debt racking up is unpayable.

This is an appalling decision. This is platform is about to provide access to some part of the markets to retail investors. Why is it preventing purchase of GME and AMC. if you want to protect your customers base remove leverage but the rest is our decision.

    • U.S. Dollar / Canadian Dollar (USDCAD) Day Chart USDCAD Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Trend Mode: Impulsive Structure: Navy blue wave 1 Position: Gray wave 3 Direction Next Lower Degrees: Navy blue wave 2 Details: Orange wave 4 of navy blue wave 1 appears completed; now orange wave 5 of navy blue wave 1 is in play. Wave Cancel Invalidation Level: 1.38430 The USDCAD Elliott Wave analysis on the daily chart from Trading Lounge evaluates the technical trend structure for the U.S. Dollar and Canadian Dollar pair. The analysis identifies an ongoing impulsive wave pattern, which is moving in an upward trajectory and structured as navy blue wave 1. Within this broader wave sequence: Gray wave 3 remains active. Orange wave 4, part of the navy blue wave 1 sequence, is likely completed. This sets the stage for orange wave 5 to develop within the navy blue wave 1 structure, signaling the continuation of the upward trend. The current analysis suggests that the trend may persist in its bullish direction, given the anticipated continuation of orange wave 5 within this wave framework. Traders and analysts are advised to closely monitor the progression of wave formations. The successful completion of orange wave 5 would support the broader upward movement indicated in navy blue wave 1. Key Marker – Invalidation Level An invalidation level has been set at 1.38430. If USDCAD prices drop to this level or lower, it would signal a breakdown in the current wave pattern. Such a scenario could indicate a shift in market direction or structure, necessitating a reassessment of the analysis. This invalidation level acts as a critical benchmark, enabling traders to verify the validity of the current impulsive structure and adjust their outlook if needed. Summary The USDCAD daily chart points to a sustained bullish outlook, with caution advised near the invalidation level of 1.38430. While the pattern suggests continued upward momentum, traders should remain vigilant for potential reversals should the price approach or fall below this threshold.   U.S. Dollar / Canadian Dollar (USDCAD) 4 Hour Chart USDCAD Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Trend Mode: Impulsive Structure: Orange wave 5 Position: Navy blue wave 1 Direction Next Lower Degrees: Navy blue wave 2 Details: Orange wave 4 appears completed; orange wave 5 of navy blue wave 1 is now in play. Wave Cancel Invalidation Level: 1.38430 The USDCAD Elliott Wave analysis on the 4-hour chart from Trading Lounge provides an in-depth review of the technical trend structure for the U.S. Dollar and Canadian Dollar pair. This analysis identifies an ongoing impulsive wave pattern, with a focus on orange wave 5, part of the broader navy blue wave 1 structure. The apparent completion of orange wave 4 indicates the beginning of the final phase, orange wave 5, which would continue the upward trajectory within this impulsive framework. The position of orange wave 5 within navy blue wave 1 underscores the primary upward trend, with the potential for further bullish momentum as this wave develops. Key Marker – Invalidation Level An invalidation level has been identified at 1.38430. If prices decline to or below this level, it would signal a breakdown in the anticipated wave structure. Such a scenario would imply a disruption in the progression of orange wave 5 and navy blue wave 1, suggesting the possibility of a trend reversal or a need to re-evaluate the wave structure. Summary The analysis anticipates the continuation of bullish momentum as orange wave 5 unfolds within the larger navy blue wave 1. Traders should monitor the development of orange wave 5 closely, as its completion could confirm the integrity of the current upward trend. However, vigilance is necessary around the invalidation level of 1.38430, as reaching this threshold could indicate a reversal or restructuring of the wave pattern. This level acts as a strategic reference point for trend validation. Technical Analyst : Malik Awais Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here

    • Ethereum has recently made significant strides, with the ETHUSD price breaking through crucial resistance levels. Below is a breakdown of the recent Ethereum price movement, whale influence, and the role of long-term holders (LTHs) in shaping the market. Key Price Levels and Bullish Trend Breaching $3,262 Resistance: Ethereum price recently surged above $3,262 as per Coinpedia Markets, marking a strong bullish movement. This breakout sets the stage for the next major target at $3,400. Next Positive Target at $3,530: If the price holds above $3,262, Ethereum could rally further to reach $3,530. The EMA50 (50-period Exponential Moving Average) also supports this upward trend, strengthening confidence in the bullish outlook. Watch for a Potential Pullback: If Ethereum price drops back below the $3,262 support level, it could signal the end of this bullish wave and lead to a downward correction. Today’s trading range is expected between the $3,200 support and the $3,460 resistance levels, providing insight into possible fluctuations. The Role of Ethereum Whales in Market Dynamics Whale Activity and Price Influence: Large investors, or “whales,” have been pivotal in driving Ethereum price upwards. Recent data indicates a surge in whale transaction volume and accumulation, both of which reflect strong confidence in Ethereum’s current rally. Significance of Whale Activity: Increased whale activity provides a solid foundation for Ethereum price, offering strong capital backing. This consistent support can foreshadow further gains for ETH, as these high-capital investors add to the rally’s momentum. Long-Term Holders (LTHs) and Ethereum Price Stability Accumulation by Long-Term Holders: During September and October, Ethereum’s liveliness metric—an indicator of active versus held coins—saw a decline, suggesting that LTHs were accumulating while prices stabilized. This accumulation can provide a stabilizing effect, helping to absorb supply and reduce volatility. Potential Profit-Taking by LTHs: Recently, however, the liveliness metric has ticked up again, indicating that some long-term holders might be taking profits. This shift could introduce additional supply, potentially moderating the current rally’s momentum and creating mild supply pressure. Outlook: Ethereum Price Prediction In the short term, the Ether Price Prediction remains optimistic, with whale activity and LTH accumulation supporting sustained growth. Yet, the possibility of profit-taking by some LTHs suggests that investors should remain cautious of potential shifts in market dynamics. As Ethereum's rally progresses, these factors will be essential for shaping ETH Coin trends and overall ethereum price movement in the coming weeks.
