Wide bid-offer spreads compared to actual market

Hi, I am based in Asia and I was just looking at your Hong Kong and Singapore stocks' bid-offer. They seem much much wider that what is actually quoted onshore. 

 

Is there a reason to that?

 

I find the wide bid-offer makes it not worth investing in the said countries' stocks through IG

 

Thanks

 

Chee

Hi there,

 

Our CFD prices for Hong Kong and Singaporean stocks are taken directly from the main exchanges. As such, you shouldn't be seeing any differences if you have live prices activated. Would you be able to let us know where you were seeing the smaller spreads so that we can take a look into it for you?

      Dow Jones Index (#US30): Key Levels to Watch This Week   Here is my latest structure analysis and key levels to watch this week on ⚠️Dow Jones.   Support 1: 31420 - 31830 area Support 2: 30690 - 30900 area Support 3: 30070 - 30360 area   Resistance 1: 32250 - 32610 area Resistance 2: 33430 - 33660 area   The market is currently stuck between Support 1 & Support 2. The market participants are awaiting the interest rate decision on Wednesday. It will most likely clarify the future direction of the market with a breakout.   Consider the underlined structures for pullback/breakout trading.

      US market offers huge potential for sports betting and gambling

      By JohnZink · Posted

      I used to enjoy playing poker and blackjack at casinos, but my love for gambling turned into an addiction when I started losing more often than winning. It took hitting rock bottom for me to seek help and change my habits. I joined a support group and worked with a therapist to develop healthier habits. Now, I still go to casinos, but I do so with caution and moderation, setting strict limits and avoiding addictive games. I've learned to control my impulses and make smarter decisions when it comes to my finances.

      Any update on IG integration with TradingView?

      By OfentseIG · Posted

      Hi @MayorofBelsize and All,  After checking with the relevant team, the integration will be finalized to mid year. It will be a staggered launch so not all countries will get access at the same time. We will confirm the details of the integration and the date by email to all our clients. We apologize for the delay and inconvenience.  All the best, OfentseIG
