SPX options - september expiry not tradable?


PythonTrade86

Question

Hello,

As you can see on this screenshot, SPX options are tradable, apart from the september expiry... 

Why is this expiry not available to trade?

I am frustrated that IG decides which expiries we can trade and which we can't. It also happened last week. I would like an explanation, please.

 

Thank you

Hi @PythonTrade86,

It seems that the dealing desk made the September Options available. Could you please advise if they are available on your side?

Thank you - Arvin

@ArvinIG Yes they are, thank you.

I really found it unfair that IG behaves this way. That is not in the client's interest, to my opinion.

Hi @PythonTrade86,

I believe that the dealing desk didn't add the September options as they are further away, only the closest expiry would be available. But on demand they can make them accessible.

I hope that it helps. If you have any options that are further away that you would like to trade please reach out to IG for them to be available to trade on the platform.

All the best - Arvin

Well, they were tradable, and I was trading them, since 2 or 3 weeks already... 

But it is nice to hear that on request one could get more expiries, good to know!

Thank you very much

    • 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.
