Overnight funding calculator or reference table?


Recommended Posts

Does IG have something similar to the attached table? I notice a lot of brokers don't make it easy to figure out what overnight funding rates will be for a given position size in a given market. The attached table (from a broker that will remain nameless) shows the percentage rate for long and short positions as well as the cost per night for a given lot size. You can choose any given date from the past to see how rates have changed and what kind of fluctuations to expect. As you may know, funding rates can and do go from positive to negative at short notice which can be a problem for long term traders.

Hi @tonyramirez,

Unfortunately there are no such feature on the IG platform.
I will forward your feedback to the relevant department to be reviewed.

You can find information on overnight funding below:
How can I view the overnight funding rates for forex or commodities?
Why is overnight funding charged and how is it calculated?

Hi @tonyramirez,

The development team came back to me. They are working on a costs and charges calculator (which will include overnight funding) being added to the deal ticket in the first half of 2022.

    • Centralized exchanges are often more popular than decentralized exchanges due to their user-friendly interfaces, ease of use, and protection against scams that can occur when interacting with various dApps on decentralized platforms. Navigating decentralized exchanges (DEXs) can be complex, which adds to the appeal of centralized alternatives. While DEXs offer several ways to earn passive income, such as staking, centralized exchanges have also introduced various opportunities for users to earn in a simpler and more straightforward manner. Some notable products that have proven efficient and beneficial for users include Launchpool, PoolX, Shark Fin, Range Sniper, Dual Investment, and others. Personally, I favor PoolX and Launchpool because they provide rewards on an hourly basis and the entry barrier is quite low for everyone to take advantage of. Shark Fin, Smart Trend, Range Sniper, and Dual Investment cater to investors with different investment goals and risk management preferences. One reason I particularly like Shark Fin is that it guarantees investors' capital while offering significant returns. All these products are available on the Bitget exchange, providing users with opportunities to earn passive income, especially in uncertain market conditions. I am interested in learning about other products you guys use to earn more crypto on centralized exchanges. Let's discuss
    • Hello IG Team @KoketsoIG Could you please provide a definitive update on the status of the TradingView integration? Many of us have been eagerly awaiting this feature for nearly two years, and it’s becoming increasingly frustrating to not have a clear timeline or concrete information. Many users have already expressed their concerns and the inconvenience of having to switch between brokers due to the lack of this integration. This delay has even caused some of us to move parts of our trading activities to other platforms that offer seamless TradingView integration. We understand that technical challenges can arise, but considering the significant time that has passed and the fact that smaller brokers have managed to implement this feature, it's perplexing why a company of IG’s stature is still unable to provide it. If there are specific technical hurdles or a projected timeline, we would appreciate transparency on these matters. The ability to trade directly from TradingView charts is a crucial feature for many of us, as it significantly enhances our trading efficiency and overall user experience. If this integration is not feasible in the near future, could you kindly inform us so we can make informed decisions about our trading strategies and platforms?
