Does anyone else know any other SB providers that you can use to trade through TV? I've only so far seen CFD providers which doesn't work for me due to tax reasons (mainly the hassle of having to account for it as well as the obvious cost).

Is there any update on when/if there will be any integration with Tradingview???

The anonymity of cryptocurrency transactions can vary depending on the specific cryptocurrency you use and the methods you use. While some cryptocurrencies provide a degree of privacy and anonymity, it is important to note that achieving complete anonymity can be difficult. Most cryptocurrencies operate on a pseudonymous basis. Transactions are recorded in a public ledger, called a blockchain, using cryptographic addresses instead of personal information. However, these addresses are usually not directly linked to a real identity, unless someone voluntarily discloses this information. Some cryptocurrencies, such as Monero (XMR) and Zcash (ZEC), are specifically designed to increase privacy and anonymity. I read on https://deeplab.com/darkweb/anonymous-sudan-launches-cyberattacks-on-middle-eastern-news-outlets-expands-target-list-with-four-additional-names that some people use this anonymity as a cyber attack.

Question
DGRL
Dear forum members,
I want to know how to calculate the required margins (when using MT4)

According this site https://www.ig.com/au/learn-to-trade/margin-explained you need to do it as followed
How do i calculate the total value of your trade?
I bought a contract last week and i know my margin req.
It was 112.03
Since i know the outcome i tried it myself but with provided info of IG i cant seems to get this outcome
The contract i bought was a long option for US30 size 0.01 (MT4)
the value of 1 contract is 10 so 0.01 should be .1
The opening price when i went long was 25332.3
With the formula above i would say that the total value would be 0.1 X 25332.3 = 2533.23
The margin requirement for US30 is 0.5%
when calculating 2533.23 X 0.5% = 12.66615
Can someone please help me to get the figures right because even if i made a mistake with the place of the dot it would be 126 and not 112
Kind regards and thanks in advance
