Hi @eileen,

There was a pricing issue on the chart that has been rectified since this morning. It seems that the lowest level didn't reach your Limit level at 7257.9. We apologies for the confusion.
As mentioned on the chart, the data is indicative, if the actual price reached your limit the stop would have been triggered.
If you need further assistance please reach out to helpdesk.au@ig.com.

All the best - Arvin

As I trade using charts how can I trust that they are a true indicator? IG should take some responsibility here and honour the trading stop as executed. Not  happy about this. 😩 p.s. wonder what would have happened if it had been a long position? losing confidence in the platform.

Hi @AuroraRosas

Thanks for the query. 

DAX opened 445.6 points below previous close. This triggered your stop at 14613.3 and you incurred 409.9 points worth of slippage. To avoid slippage in the future you should consider guaranteed stops. Please see the following links for more information:

    • Hey fam. I'm super excited to share some amazing news about CARV, the largest modular data layer for gaming and AI, which is about to be listed on a top tier Platform. CARV is all about putting data privacy, ownership, and control back into our hands. They use cutting-edge tech like Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) and Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) to make sure our data stays safe and we get to benefit from its value. Imagine earning rewards just by sharing your data through their incentivized data-sharing protocol and self-sovereign identity oracle. Pretty cool, right? With over 750 partnerships, including big names like Illuvium, Axie Infinity, and BinaryX, and integration across more than 40 blockchain ecosystems, CARV is making waves in the gaming and AI world. They’ve already got a massive user base with over 2.5 million registered users and 1.3 million daily active users. That’s some serious adoption! The upcoming Bitget listing is creating a lot of buzz, especially with the PoolX and Candybomb events. These events are perfect for earning rewards by staking and trading CARV tokens, which will definitely boost the project’s visibility and adoption. Plus, with $50M in funding from top investors like Temasek’s Vertex Ventures, ConsenSys, and HashKey Capital, CARV’s innovative approach to data monetization and decentralized ownership is set to attract even more attention in the crypto community. Can’t wait to see how CARV continues to revolutionize the space.

    • I've actually used trading bots before and found them effective, especially in volatile markets. While copy trading can be great for following experienced traders, bot trading allows for more customization since you set the rules or algorithms yourself. It's useful if you want to automate your strategy and avoid emotional decisions. For the Bitget Trading Bot Carnival, using a bot could help maximize your trades on those tokens, could be worth giving it a shot. You might end up preferring it, especially with the prize pool up for grabs.
