IG Trading - Questions


Recommended Posts

Greetings Community members:

I've a few questions about the commodity trading (Spot Gold):

  • What are the charges if the account balance goes to negative? (Spot Gold (1$ contract))
  • What are the charges for weekend and overnight open positions for Spot Gold (1$ contract)
  • How we do get alerted for the signals published?

Hi, not sure where you are based and so which regulator you come under but in the UK and now in Australia you have negative balance protection so won't happen but under the margin rules as a trade goes further into the red and uses up your margin requirement you will receive a magin call and if you don't add funds IG will close the trade before your account goes negative.

For overnight funding see this page.

Why is overnight funding charged and how is it calculated? | IG UK

Apologies for the delayed response, I'm from AU and thanks for pointers.

Is there a way to get alerted like in email or app when signals (Autochartist and PIA) are published? I haven't looked at the api's available yet but thought would ask before exploring that path.

Hi, don't think they do alerts for the web based platform so you need to check for updates. Autochartist is available on the MT4 platform (downloaded from the Autochartist web site ) and I think that one might have alerts if memory serves.

Thanks for the note.  The IG's instructions aren't much helpful

I did some research and found out that the plug in has to be downloaded from here

Configuration steps are mentioned here https://www.autochartist.com/metatrader-plugin/index_en.html

    • Recently, U.S. Senator Bill Hagerty from Tennessee spoke at the Bitcoin conference, stating his efforts to push for Bitcoin-supportive legislation to promote freedom and opportunity. This year, cryptocurrency has become a key battleground in the election campaigns. It remains to be seen whether future policies on cryptocurrency will improve.
    • The digital landscape is undergoing a profound transformation as attention, once a freely given commodity, is increasingly recognized as a valuable asset. Layer3 is at the forefront of this revolution, pioneering a new economy where attention can be owned, traded, and monetized   This innovative approach empowers individuals to monetize their engagement, providing unprecedented control over personal data. Simultaneously, advertisers benefit from transparent metrics that optimize campaign performance. Content creators are presented with diverse revenue avenues beyond traditional advertising, while the overall ecosystem experiences a more equitable distribution of value.   The implications of Layer3 extend across various sectors. Social media platforms, for instance, can leverage this technology to revolutionize user engagement and monetization strategies. Tokenomics play a crucial role in driving Layer3's economy, incentivizing participation and rewarding value creation. While challenges such as data privacy and market volatility exist, the potential benefits of Layer3 are immense   Anticipation is building as its native token $L3 is on Bitget Pre-market as users await its listing on the exchange. This milestone is expected to significantly increase the token's visibility and accessibility, potentially driving substantial growth and attracting new investors. As the countdown begins, the crypto community watches with keen interest, eager to see how Layer3 will perform in this new chapter.
    • I've been exploring the world of play-to-earn gaming recently, looking for something that's not just about endless grinding but actually offers a fun and rewarding experience. OGC really stood out to me because it combines gaming with a sense of community in a unique way. OGC isn't just a game; it's a platform where you can play, earn, and even help shape its future. You're not just a player; you're part of a community with a voice. The idea of earning crypto while playing games is exciting, but what makes OGC special is its focus on community involvement. Your feedback can directly influence the development of the game, which is a big deal. I've also heard that the OGC token is available for pre-market trading on Bitget. While I'm still getting to know the platform and its features, it's definitely something to keep an eye on. Has anyone else tried OGC? What has your experience been like? I'd love to hear your thoughts and any tips you might have.
