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:

    • Despite the complaint on Catizen, I recently saw a tweet where one KOL showed his excitement for the project. He claimed to staked $cati on Bitget Poolx and earn good apr and further encouraged his followers to participate in other campaigns on the exchange for Catizen players. Even when I feel he was just trying to make his followers to be optimistic and stop wasting time complaining. I still feel citizen team were not transparent to their community. While many continue to call the project scam, I choose to defer because the project has a well-defined roadmap and use case for the token. These I feel might have huge impact in the project development and sustainability in this volatile space. We learn daily so this airdrop hunters should take this as a learning stage and further focus on other opportunities abundant in this industry. Many people only farm for airdrop and don’t care to understand the space and see where they can contribute. Web3 is a revolution and is better to join early and create a niche for yourself that just passing through.
    • There was another 30k CATS for the first 200k users that deposit on Bitget. 
    • MemeFi sounds like a fun mix of gaming and DeFi, plus the chance to trade MEMEFI early on Bitget a good opportunity
