Spread Bet Futures Chart Restricted


Gibbo27

Question

Does anyone know why the cash chart shows history, but the futures charts are restricted to a few weeks with zoom-out locked? It's annoying to make futures trades when locked on a close zoom. See difference between US500 "cash" and "Future DEC21" chart. The futures is locked to 1 month history and the zoom out icon doesn't work. Am I missing something?

P.S the email support is shockingly awful, if anyone from IG is reading this. 90% of responders literally have no understanding of the IG products or services and make me want to change provider.

Hi @Gibbo27

Thank you for the query

We have checked this one with our futures desk. They have confirmed that unfortunately that is the way that our system is set up. Essentially we cycle between 2 epics for our futures. When one expires the charts do not retain the data for that epic. We are happy to pass on your feedback to the desk and to our developers. 

All the best

Well, it seems you are restricting traders ability to set a sensible stop loss level, as a trade for 3-6-9 months duration is likely to want to consider a wide chart for risk management, not just the recent few weeks.

    • Bitget has been on the news recently for the right reasons and I feel they should be a tier 1 CEXes not just for rewarding their potential users but for being very innovative by simplify trading experience on their platform. 
    • Asia stock indices mostly advance as China consumer prices drop the most in three years after another positive session in the US on Friday, shrugging off stronger-than-expected US jobs data ahead of Wednesday's FOMC meeting. With the ECB and BOE meeting on Thursday, volatility is likely to pick up in the middle of the week. While today's economic calendar is devoid of any market moving data, Tuesday should be more interesting with UK unemployment, Germany ZEW economic sentiment and the US inflation data releases.   
    • JTO strategic focus on community driven governance and network management will greatly influence and impact the Solana ecosystem, and that could be seen in the tokens allocation ratio to validators and the community. With the success of other projects like BLUR, PYTH, JUP and the incredible JTO all under Solana ecosystem, Solana is on the path to match up or even displace Ethereum as Defi king hence it's a good time to buy and HODL Sol. NFA tho.
